Ken Jacobs: Oct 29
Ken Jacobs Artist Talk and Premiere of New Work
Wednesday, October 29, 2008 6:30 pm
Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI)
535 West 22nd Street, 5th Floor
EAI is pleased to present the premiere screening of a new feature-length, 3-D video by legendary experimental filmmaker Ken Jacobs, titled ANAGLYPH TOM (Tom With Puffy Cheeks). Jacobs will be present to introduce and discuss his work and will also screen three of his recent digital shorts: His Favorite Wife Improved (2008), Nymph (2007), and Capitalism: Slavery (2006). In these works, Jacob reanimates through digital manipulation sources ranging from a 19th century stereograph to a 20th-century televised movie. Throbbing and flickering, pulsing and stuttering, these works plunge the viewer into haunted scenes that come alive with illusory depth and movement. Whether undertaking archaeological journeys to the birth of cinema, or reactivating vintage stereographs through digital interventions, Jacobs investigates, provokes and draws power from the mysteries of the nature of vision. *NOTE: The works being screened should not be viewed by individuals with epilepsy or seizure disorders.
