LOOKING FOR LARA : Cecilia Westerberg (2008-08-14 - 2008-09-20)

LOOKING FOR LARA Opens August 14th at Bendixen Contemporary Art in Valby, Denmark. Certain movies leave unforgettable traces in our memory – or do they? - What do we actually remember when a movie makes an impression on us?
Cecilia Westerberg takes Boris Pasternak’s partly autobiographical novel Dr. Zhivago as her point of departure in her solo exhibition -  Looking for Lara - and works with different aspects of displacement in the individual and collective memory.  In the first part of the exhibition Cecilia Westerberg takes her starting point in a number of interviews, with people who have seen the classical film Dr. Zhivago from 1965.
