CHROMOSOMES by DAVID CRONENBERG - the exhibition

David Cronenberg and Thierry Fremaux talking about Chromosome Exhibition for Rome Film Fest 2008.

70 images chosen and processed by David Cronenberg starting with original film frames from his most famous movies: The Fly, Videodrome, The Dead Zone, Dead Ringers, Naked Lunch, Crash, Spider, and the recent Eastern Promises. The images were taken directly from the 35mm prints at the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia in Rome through innovative digital techniques, after which they were processed following the precise indications of the author and finally printed on 80x100 cm canvasses. The exhibition, curated by Domenico De Gaetano and Luca Massimo Barbero, was completed by two 10-minute videos with famous sequences from Cronenberg's movies and a bilingual catalogue. One room was entirely dedicated to the installation Red Cars, in homage to the Ferrari, based on the artbook that was realized in 2005 and on rare archival footage.
