From Ingrid Caven’s start in cinema alongside Rainer Werner Fassbinder (1945–1982) and the myriad extraordinary roles that followed, to her theatre performances and legendary concerts, the German actress and singer has been a force of inspiration and a vital collaborator for artists across five decades, including Werner Schroeter, Yves Saint Laurent, Jean-Jacques Schuhl, Daniel Schmid, Bertrand Bonello, Albert Serra, Claire Denis, Jean Eustache, Rita Azevedo Gomes, Raúl Ruiz and André Téchiné.
Appearing on the occasion of a retrospective honouring Caven at FIDMarseille 2024, this is the second title of the monograph series One Two Many, which explores and celebrates a given artist’s oeuvre. The book features a new interview with the artist and a selection of archival materials, plus essays and other texts exploring their unique contribution to cinema.
The book features a new in-depth interview with Caven by Cyril Neyrat and Tsveta Dobreva, a dossier of photographs and other material from her personal archive, a career-spanning essay by Erika Balsom, a conversation between Jean-Jacques Schuhl and Albert Serra, and creative texts on individual films by Philippe Azoury, Renato Berta, Bertrand Bonello, Luc Chessel, Bruce Hainley, Rachel Kushner, Nathalie Léger and Audrey Wollen.
