3. Hollis Frampton


NOCTILUCA

Snowblind

"Homage to Michael Snow's environmental sculpture 'Blind'. The film proposes analogies, in imitation of 3 historic montage styles, for three perceptual modes mimed by that work." 


3. Paul Sharits

Installation view of Paul Sharits, "Shutter Interface," (1975, four-screen 16-mm loop projection with four separate sound tracks) at Greene Naftali Gallery, 2009.


4. ANTHONY McCALL

Between You and I”, 2006 by Anthony McCall. Vertical solid light installation, two video projectors, two haze machines.

"In his seminal work Line Describing a Cone (1973), the British-born artist Anthony McCall began with a small dot. On a wall he projected a small white circle that slowly grew to a circular line suspended in midair, then to a conical sculpture made of light. The work, the first of his "solid light" films, captured both the illusion of movement in film and the substantial corporality of sculpture."
