Programmed by Kathy Geritz and Steve Seid
For our final Radical L@TE, we feature a selection of Bay Area artists who expand cinema into the gallery space with dazzling 3D, multiple screens, and multiple projectors. This work arises from documentary explorations and scientific experiments, reframed by conceptual concerns. Lynn Marie Kirby’s installation, C: to C: Several Centuries After the Double Slit Experiment, is both an homage to Michael Snow’s Wavelength and to the double slit experiments that revealed light to be both a particle and a wave. Greta Snider and Johunna Grayson collaborated on the stereoscopic slide show, Dimensional Bodies, an intimate series of portraits that focus on bodily issues, including aging and sexuality. Jeanne C. Finley and John Muse’s installation The Adventures of Blacky, based on drawings used in 1950s psychological tests, explores the dark side of childhood. Kerry Laitala will unveil a new three-projector film with sound by L@TE favorite Wobbly and Lynne Sachs will present States of Unbelonging, an installation of light boxes that explores how one person attempts to understand another.
