Visit at the Musée d'Art Contemporain


2 - Isaac Julien, Encore (Paradise Omeros : Redux), 2003.
Video montage, 4 min. 38 sec.

It is a video that I only saw once as the loop in the projection room is more than an hour long and it is hard to see the same video twice in these kinds of set up.

What I apreciate of this peice is the « Kaléidoscope » effect that is aplied on abstract video sequences. The sequences chosen are appropriate because they are at such a proximity from the subject that the images becomes beautifully abstract, and just facinating to look at.

Again the image beside is just an exercise in trying to acheive the effect that I appreciated in the artwork. The effect would be even stronger if the images were moving. I have chosen this peice because at the beginning I was thinknig of making a video.
