Curatorial statement:
In this interlude, set in Kootenay National Park, Alain Clavier’s score sets the tone as we gaze deeply upon 500 million-year-old invertebrates.

In the early 1980s, Parks Canada released a series of “Interlude Films,” featuring a dreamlike score by Québécois electronic musician, Alain Clavier (1929-1998). These short films depicted the value of national parks as places for enjoyment, reflection and healing and did so with a unique artistic vision. In the early 1990s, the Interludes vanished from television, consigned to the archives of the National Film Board.
Now four decades later, not only has the full series been lovingly restored to its original splendor from the 16mm negatives, but a cohort of experimental filmmakers and musicians have produced a new series of Public Service Announcements that celebrate the aesthetic of the 70s-era films. Shot on 16mm film, these new productions follow the cinematic codes of the original works and are scored by contemporary Canadian musicians inspired to reinterpret Clavier’s mesmerizing soundtrack. Like the originals, these Public Service Announcements capture the tranquility and restorative nature of Canada’s national parks and celebrate the artistic legacy of Parks Canada.
