Jean-Luc Godard: Scénario(s)

Dec 14, 2024 - Dec 22, 2024

A unique exploration of the final creative work of cinema’s great innovator, Jean-Luc Godard. This exhibition will see Godard’s last two films, including the UK premiere of his final work, Scénarios (2024), installed in the ICA's upper galleries alongside his extensive creative notebooks, offering a rare glimpse into the artist’s reflective process, blurring the lines between film, visual art, and philosophy.

Jean-Luc Godard devoted the final years of his life to the realisation of a project he described as his ultimate work, initially titled Scénario and later renamed Scénarios just a week before his voluntary death in September 2022. The project was, at times, ambitious and multifaceted—a film, an exhibition, an opera—and at others, more focused, confronting the ageing body and the horizon of death. It both extended the creative path he had established with The Image Book (2018) and marked a radical departure from it.  

The project initially seemed infinite, driven by a life of creation that continually pushed its limits, yet it ultimately took a precise form: the film Scénarios.
