Hannes Schüpbach – Film Solo

£12.00

In stock

Includes texts by Vincent Katz (New York), "Hannes Schpbach: Blinking The Mind's Eye," and Ulrike Draesner (Berlin): "MIT/SCHRIFT." With the sensibility found only in poets, the voices of Vincent Katz and Ulrike Draesner guide us through the experience of Hannes Schüpbach's work and into the depths of personal resonance.

A selection of film stills (in groups of 2 or 4 reproductions per page) represent interconnected motifs from the three films Portrait Mariage, Spin, and Toccata. The Swiss artist Hannes Schüpbach creates silent colour films that evoke an experience similar to poetry. He composes and varies images of places, people, and gestures, deriving from a specific living context in each film. The subtlety and distance of his images invite the eye to "listen" very carefully. The program shows the gradual development of the artist's film language, based on the nature of the film image as both trace of reality and potential metaphor. Hannes Schüpbach has been working with film, parallel to his large painting suites, since the early 1990s.
