Ferdinand Gouzon

A History of Darkness summons the figures of Nero, Dante, the Marquis de Sade and Ludwig II in the intoxication of their obsessions, between ecstasy and damnation, fascination and repulsion. A family portrait teetering on the edge of the abyss.

A cinematic record by Anton Bialas and Ferdinand Gouzon of some twenty of Pommereulle’s sculptures.
