Exhibition Chris Marker: The Lost Photographs of Israel | The Israel Museum, Jerusalem This exhibition presents still images of Israel from 1960 captured by the French photographer and film director Chris Marker, one of the postwar New Wave’s most original and influential directors. Photographed from Eilat in the south up to Kibbutz Manara in northernmost Israel, they were taken in preparation for a new type of documentary film about the young country. The film, “Description of a Struggle”, achieved renown - but the photographs vanished. A few years ago, more than 1,000 negatives from this project were discovered in the archive of the French Cinemathèque; some 120 of them have been printed for the exhibition and are displayed here for the first time. Images of everyday scenes and ordinary people, they convey the same insightful humanism that Marker brought to his films. In addition, the exhibition presents rare archival material that sheds light on how the film came to be, as well as on its reception in Israel and abroad. Until October 14 th , imj.org.il
