Now in her eighties, Eliane Radigue is a justly celebrated figure in electronic music. Her work has roots in Europe s post-war avant garde, and she has been linked with the pioneers of American minimalism such as Terry Riley, La Monte Young, and Steve Reich, but her monumental meditative compositions have taken a singular path, transporting the listener into new realms of sound. This film looks at how she developed as an artist and documents a recent concert in London’s Spitalfields Church.
LUMEN is a new film programme put together by Lost Property with support from Film Hub South East.
