"The Sustainable Legacy of Agnès Varda is a tribute to the late artist and filmmaker whose death in 2019 left behind more than six decades' worth of visual innovations in film and multimedia installations. Combining original research and chapters with a focus on pegagogy, the team of international contributors explore the recurring and insistent theme of sustainability in Varda's work. Contributors celebrate the feminist legacy of Varda's cinematic and visual art, ranging from the classic feature film Cléo from 5 to 7 (1962) to her documentaries The Beaches of Agnès (2008) and Faces Places (2017). With a focus on this legacy firmly in mind, they examine Varda's influence across festivals, repertoires and classrooms, where her works have long been a celebrated fixture. Emphasising the link with the classroom, the book concludes with a series of 10 short, personal essays on teaching Varda, with case studies of the varied ways in which her work can be communicated to - and shared with - a student audience."--
