30:01Now PlayingA lively mix of poetry, art and philosophy, this conversation between curator Hans Ulrich Obrist and artist Etel Adnan takes its form from the seminal documentary L’Abécédaire de Gilles Deleuze (1996) and Adnan’s poetry collection From A-Z (1982).
In the form of an alphabet of ideas, the discussion – which is in turn irreverent and profound – spans subjects as broad as animals, the notion of globalisation, opera, painting and Adnan’s beloved Sausalito.
HENI Talks had the privilege of filming this intimate conversation between friends in Adnan's Paris home and studio in 2017.
