Tabula Rasa(2004)
"Revisiting footage he shot more than ten years ago in an American high school, Vincent Grenier combines deftly manipulated and layered images with oblique commentaries delivered by students and instructors. The socializing process of education is made visible in the architecture, surfaces and colours of the school, 'in the ambiguous quality of appearances so assiduously cultivated by institutions' (Grenier)." - Images Festival, 2005
