?Photography is truth; and cinema is truth twenty-four times a second?. I have doubts about this expression of JEAN-LUC-GODARD (screenplay, Le Petit Soldat, 1960). Why ? Because Art is art/-/ificial. Art is not the truth, the real state of things, the truth of real events or facts. It is a RE-presentation of something, not necessary real. The definition of Artificial is: something produced by art rather than nature; or, in another sense, made by humans to imitate nature. Do you think that the detention of time in the photograph is something natural, real ? I think that doesn't matter if photography is truth or not. The question is if you like it or no.
