Artist's Works

In recent years, Keren Cytter has developed a large body of films where the use of a (nonlinear) narrative is central. She continuously plays with the notion of the real and the fictitious, using nonprofessional actors and often handheld cameras. Her films are deconstructing the modern principles of cinema, balancing between performance, theatre and film. The use of language has a central place in her work and mostly follows a nonrealistic poetical style. The subjects are related to existential questions of love, hate and the human condition in general; they are a dark and sometimes comical reflection on today’s society.

At PAC, Keren Cytter presents her new film Bad Poet as a premiere. By bringing the film together with a display of objects related to the project, she realizes a new dimension in her work.
