WVLNT - WAVELENGTH For Those Who Don’t Have the Time: Originally 45 minutes, now 15!, 2003

29.03.23 > 11.05.23
Opening: 29.03.23

In 1967 Michael Snow presents his groundbreaking film Wavelength,  in his words "a summary of my nervous system, my religious intuitions and my aesthetic ideas". Wavelength, essentially a continuous zoom which takes 45 minutes to go from its widest field to its smallest and final field, is today considered a masterpiece of experimental cinema. In 2003, aware of an age of shortened attention spans, he remakes it in digital format, cutting it from 45 to 15 minutes, (into three pieces and superimposing them). With his characteristic sense of humor he titled it: WVLNT -WAVELENGTH: for those who don't have the time: Originally 45 minutes, now 15!.
