Christian Boltanski's latest Festival contribution conveys his belief that an 'artist is someone with a mirror instead of a face'. Les Archives du coeur consists of a single hanging light-bulb, whose intensity varies according to the artist's heartbeat. Viewers are invited to be part of Boltanski's 'heart archives' by recording their heartbeat.
