Publisher Note

Lieux de Mémoire and Desire presents five cinematic works of Maya
Schweizer and examines how the artist approaches the relation of montage
editing techniques with the concept of film and memorial and film as
memorial — a relation which traces back to the very beginnings of montage
as it does to research findings by French historian Pierre Nora. Recurring
moments in Schweizer’s multiform art practice revolve around the
examination of subtly treated processes of memory regarding historic-
political events in public space. In the places, structures and situations she
investigates, historical threads intersect.
