Description: Peter GidalnCONDITION OF ILLUSION (1969-2013)n16mm, color/b with typewriters; static cameras; even Man Ray’s photos of the dust on Duchamp’s Large Glass. The leitmotif of clocks (their faces, naturally, flipped) is fitting: what we’re ultimately witnessing, perhaps, is a countdown, taking place on the far side of the screen, of all screens; the exhilarating spectacle of not just a medium but media tout court in a state of immanence, of almost-becoming.nn-- Tom McCarthynn//nnAvec Room Film
