{"product_id":"raymond-cauchetiers-new-wave-isbn-9781851497911","title":"Raymond Cauchetier's New Wave","description":"In the late 1950s and early 1960s French New Wave cinema exploded onto international screens with films like \u003ci\u003eLes quatre cents coups, A bout de souffle\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eJules et Jim.\u003c\/i\u003e They were radical, artistic, original and most importantly set up the director as a creative genius; at the forefront were Francois Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard. Today these films are credited with changing cinema forever. For many film goers they command strong and passionate respect and became the foundations on which a lifetime of cinema-going is built. In the photographs of Raymond Cauchetier we bear witness to the great artistic genius that was central to the process of making these films. Cauchetier's photographs are a culturally important documentary of the director at work, his methods and processes. His photographs capture some of the most memorable moments in film; Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Seberg on the Champs Élysées in \u003ci\u003eA bout de souffle,\u003c\/i\u003e Jeanne Moreau in the race scene of \u003ci\u003eJules et Jim,\u003c\/i\u003e Anna Karina in a Parisian Cafe in \u003ci\u003eUne femme est une femme.\u003c\/i\u003e But Cauchetier's genius lies also in the fact that his photographs are far above just a visual record of these films. They clearly show the same spirit, the same freedom and the same originality that made The New Wave so important. Cauchetier's photographs are as much a part of The New Wave as the films themselves. In the words of Richard Brody: In these images, Raymond Cauchetier, a witness to art, made art by bearing true witness. This is the first book published in English featuring the New Wave film photographs of Raymond Cauchetier.","brand":"ACC Art Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48683651694821,"sku":"NP9781851497911","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/O_7b4e679c-24ea-467f-9607-13b16d25aca9.jpg?v=1775170075","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/raymond-cauchetiers-new-wave-isbn-9781851497911","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
