Go On Location With Pierre Huyghe's Penguin Movie

By greg on October 5, 2005 12:55 PM

What is it with French people and penguin movies? Next Friday evening, French video artist Pierre Huyghe will be filming the second part of "A Journey That Wasn�t," a musical based on a trip to Antarctica.

The first part was filmed in June by a crew setting out from Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego to an Antarctic island.

The performance will be shot after dusk on Friday at Wollman Rink. The work will debut at the 2006 Whitney Biennial, presumably with a new voiceover by Morgan Freeman.

Since 2001 here at greg.org, I've been blogging about the creative process—my own and those of people who interest me. That mostly involves filmmaking, art, writing, research, and the making thereof.

Many thanks to the Creative Capital | Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Program for supporting greg.org that time.
