Pause!

“Arnulf Rainer himself is an artist of unique originality and intensity. His face art, which constitutes the source of imagery of Pause! is a chapter of modern art in itself. […] During the first images I had an existential fear. Kubelka had to consume and to transcend not only Arnulf Rainer but also to transcend the entire genre of contemporary art known as face art. A few images more and my heart regained itself and jumped into excitement: both, Rainer and Art disintegrated and became molecules, frames of movement and expression, material at the disposal of the Muse of Cinema.” Jonas Mekas
