The Story of Berenice Abbott

Little Stories of Great Women Artists is an original project of playful and educational animated videos for children from the age of 7 and older.The objective of each episode? To shed light on the life and work of a woman artist from the 19th or 20th century in a three-minutes video. Imagined by screenwriter Sophie Caron, each story conveys the originality of an artist’s approach, their importance within an artistic movement, certain significant biographical stories, as well as difficulties that the artist may have encountered in her practice. This episode takes us from New York to Paris and along Route 1 on the Atlantic coast of the United States to discover several cities and figures documented by the American photographer Berenice Abbott, who was born in 1898. ©AWARE : Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions Plus d'informations / More information : https://urls.fr/MVLrcF Newsletter : https://urls.fr/u_zyE8 This project is made possible by the support of the Délégation à la transmission, aux territoires et à la démocratie culturelle of the Ministry of Culture, and the Fondation ENGIE.
