Art Squatters in Paris 5:00, 2001 (Ref: EU0143)

Description

Many consider Paris to be the world centre of art and fashion. But there’s one artistic fashion that has Parisian landlords and government officials up in arms. Scores of sculptors and painters who can’t afford expensive studios have decided to take action… occupying pricey buildings and defying authorities to move them. In this film we visit these squatters of Paris and see how they’ve given new meaning to the phrase “artistic statement”.
