Ciel variable 66 - ANGELA GRAUERHOLZ | Portfolios
Artists: Angela Grauerholz
[Spring 2005] The question today is, however – perhaps has always been – how somebody can appropriate (in fact steal) somebody else’s doing and yet make something of it that is uniquely his own. In other words, the question is not what are the models to be followed or that are being followed, but what […]

[Spring 2005] Office 2000 Skol, Montréal du 3 septembre au 2 octobre 2004 The vivid night shots feature generic office-tower exteriors, often providing direct views into the cubicles within. The similarity between the buildings is eased by the variation in range from the subjects. The more distant vantages confront us with the sheer might and […]

Ciel variable 67 - STILL MOVING | Editorial
Authors: Cheryl Simon
[Spring 2005] by Cheryl Simon The photo-based installation projects featured in this special issue of Ciel variable exhibit a paradoxical sense of temporality. Although all are presented as time-based installations, hence moving imagery, the prevailing temporal logic characterizing this body of work is that of stillness. For this reason, the temporal sensibility here is more […]
Ciel variable 67 - STILL MOVING | Portfolios
Authors: Will Straw | Artists: Adad Hannah
[Spring 2005] On the very threshold of immobility, Adad Hannah’s works are initially interpreted by our eyes as being static images – only to eventually reveal subtle movements that betray their nature as works of video rather than of still photography. Recalling a history of negotiated relationships between the static and moving image, these revelations […]

Authors: Cheryl Simon | Artists: Tetsuomi Anzai
[Spring 2005] Each the product of a very particular combination of media generated imagery, Tetsuomi Anzai’s mixed media installation works offer unique perspectives on a world increasingly apprehended through pictures. Whether stills enlivened through video animation techniques, video loops upturned to approximate the live streaming of camera obscura technology, or satellite renderings rolled, spun and […]
Ciel variable 67 - STILL MOVING | Portfolios
Authors: Cheryl Sourkes | Artists: Stan Denniston
[Spring 2005] Using long, continuous video takes and the static camera position of the still photographer to capture what at first appears to be inert subject matter–geological formations, deserted highways and other abandoned sites—Stan Denniston’s ‘fixed focus’ movies invoke an uncanny temporal sensibility. Subject movement is minimal and unpredictable, defined as it is by the […]

Authors: Randolf Jordan | Artists: David Claerbout, NomIg
[Spring 2005] by Randolph Jordan Frame-by-frame analysis confirms that beneath the apparent non-movement of the plant world, the most awful and violent things are brewing: heart-rending torsions, horrible intertwinings, endless growth . . . such is Man. No moment is ever as intense as when there is no more outward bodily agitation to hide the infinitesimal speed […]

Authors: Johanna Mizgala
[Spring 2005] International Center for Photography, New York 17 September – 28 November 2004 From its earliest days, photography has been used to bear witness to acts of violence and inhumanity. Its strength lies in the power to capture events as they transpire, to cast these events in a mantle of truth, and to circulate […]
