Jean-Luc Godard entered the scene in the 1950s, writing about film for Cahiers du Cinéma, just like fellow French New Wave cinephilic iconoclasts François Truffaut, Éric Rohmer, and Jacques Rivette. With Breathless, his 1960 directorial feature debut, he drew a line of demarcation for moviemaking. This renegade instinct to wipe the slate clean of his past work while forever pushing forward the medium’s expressive possibilities carried the director through his next 40-plus years of metamorphoses. Starting today, and on through December 22, London’s Institute of Contemporary Arts (I.C.A.) presents “Jean-Luc Godard: Scénario(s),” an exhibition it describes as “a unique exploration of the final creative work of cinema’s great innovator.” Centered around the U.K. premiere of Godard’s last two filmic contributions—one of them being “Scénarios,” which was completed by Godard on the eve of his death—the exhibition will also feature page-by-page reproductions of his creative notebooks. Accompanying the exhibition is a spectacularly curated selection of lesser-known, seldom-screened films that span Godard’s entire career. —Spike Carter
