North Star: Mark di Suvero (1977) is a documentary film about Mark di Suvero that was produced by François de Menil and Barbara Rose. Born in 1933, di Suvero has become one of the most recognized sculptors of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. From about 1975 to 1977, fairly early in di Suvero's long career, filmmaker de Menil and art historian Rose produced this film, which was characterized at the time as "a tribute to the extraordinary work and life of the innovative American sculptor of monumental but delicate constructions." The film shows di Suvero making and installing several of his very large sculptures, and incorporates informal interviews of di Suvero, his mother, and others involved in his career and life at that time. From 1971 to 1975 di Suvero, an American, lived in a self-imposed exile in France in protest of US involvement in war in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, and the filming spans the end of his exile and his return to New York.

The film presents the biographical material and interviews in black and white footage, and uses color to present the footage directly related to the creation of di Suvero's sculptures as well as reactions and opinions from passersby and colleagues. Nine of di Suvero's sculptures are featured in the film; the film's title refers to one of these, North Star, which was included in a prominent 1975 outdoor exhibition of di Suvero's sculptures in Paris, France. For each of the featured artworks, Philip Glass composed and performed a short piece of music for the film's score. Glass has been described recently as "one of the most influential - and controversial - contemporary composers". A recording of Glass' score has been issued independently of the film, and was included in a 2012 listing of Glass' ten essential recordings. The film was edited by Paul Justman, Lana Jokel, and Ralph Rosenblum (as "consulting editor"); Rosenblum was a veteran editor who edited several of director Woody Allen's films in the 1970s.

The film was accepted for the 1978 New Directors/New Films Festival at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. On July 18, 1978, the film was televised nationally in the US, and was favorably reviewed in several periodicals at the time. The film was first released to home video as a DVD in 2011.

Une incursion dans l’univers de Louise Bourgeois, dont l’oeuvre protéiforme traversa les 20ème et 21ème siècles. Louise Bourgeois a côtoyé les principaux mouvements artistiques, tout en préservant farouchement son indépendance d’esprit, et sa manière incroyablement inventive et troublante. L’artiste lève le voile sur ses secrets d’enfance, source de ses traumatismes, qui se reflètent dans ses sculptures et ses installations, dont la caméra explore la troublante magie.

The film begins by showing Antonio López García as a very meticulous painter. He drives in pegs to mark his stance, hangs a weight and uses strings to determine the symmetry and center of his painting. His first attempt starts out peacefully but he soon encounters problems due to the weather and the size of his canvas. As García and a friend discuss Michelangelo's The Last Judgement, painted when Michelangelo was in his 60s, which García is fast approaching, the film's subject takes shape as the relationship between the artist's work and his own mortality. García's future attempts are much more rushed and frantic as he struggles to compete with the weather, the fleeting sun and the rotting and weighed down fruit in maintaining his vision.

Moi, Van Gogh propose une vision tout à fait nouvelle de l'artiste. Cette vision est celle de Peter Knapp et de François Bertrand qui ont voulu un film à la fois centré sur le travail du peintre, construisant une relation intime avec l'homme, et résolument spectaculaire dans son traitement graphique grâce au procédé 70 mm/15 perforations - IMAX.
