%X (E): Along with people like C¨¦saire, Sartre and Howlett, Chris Marker cherished in 1953 the hope that African artefacts would be removed from the museum. In the film Les Statues meurent aussi ( Statues Also Dieˇ® 1950-53) Marker as director and writer, accompanied by Resnais as co-director, Ghislain Cloquet as cameraman and Guy Bernard as composer, took up the mission to challenge the prevailing gaze on African artefacts. How does Markerˇ®s Les Statues meurent aussi look upon African art?  (F): ¨¤ lˇ®instar de personnes comme C¨¦saire, Sartre et Howlett, Chris Marker cultiva lˇ®espoir en 1953 que les artefacts africains puissent sortir du strict cadre des mus¨¦es. Dans le film Les Statues meurent aussi (1950-53), Marker, en tant que r¨¦alisateur et sc¨¦nariste, second¨¦ par Resnais, comme co-r¨¦alisateur, Ghislain Cloquet comme directeur de la photographie et Guy Bernard comme compositeur, se donna pour mission de contester le regard fig¨¦ pr¨¦dominant sur les artefacts africains. Quel regard porte sur lˇ®art africain Les statues meurent aussi de Marker ?
