Video from the True Collection June 5 – June 30, 2018 Bruce/Floyd Gallery, Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art WSU
In a two-part presentation, the museum will consecutively highlight six room-sized video projections from six international artists. Each video work will be presented for approximately one month.
Join us for this month’s projection: Descent, 2002 by Catherine Yass. It’s a 16mm film transferred to DVD, looping 8 minutes 11 seconds, in silent format.
For her film Descent, a camera was lowered to the ground from a crane over a construction site at Canary Wharf, London, through thick fog. Yass adds to the perspectival distortions by screening the film upside down.
