- W785833741 abstract "LEANDRO KATZ: ARREBATOS, DIAGONALES Y RUPTURAS (RAPTURES, DIAGONALS AND RUPTURES) Fundacion Telefonica, Buenos Aires, Argentina July - October, 2013Since the demise of the US space mission's efforts to transport human beings to other planets, our culture's scientific fascination with the moon has certainly waned. Not so in the universe of media artist Leandro Katz whose selenographic obsessions take us to a cinematic stratosphere not even George Melies could have imagined. In Buenos Aires, the Fundacion Telefonica's expansive retrospective of Katz's work begins with an exquisitely conceived theater-in- the-round comprised of film images of the moon in all its full and crescent phases. In conversation with exhibition curator Berenice Reynaud, Katz explained, I was interested in sequential still photography, and in redundancy and structure -rather than in photography as hunting for images. Through Katz's lens, we see the moon as mystical, aesthetic and, surprisingly perhaps, political. In its original 1976 iteration, Katz wanted the audience to hold hands while watching ... searching for a sense of a real community gathered to reflect.Leandro Katz: Arrebatos, Diagonales y Ruptures offers visitors the rare chance to immerse themselves in the numerous visual thought pieces the artist created during his 40 years as an Argentinean in New York City, as well as more recent work produced since Katz's 2006 return to Buenos Aires. Committed to a personal filmmaking practice that covers experimental ethnography (Los Angeles Station, 1976 and Paradox, 2001), New York City downtown absurdist theater (The Grand Tarot of Charles Ludlam, 1987), transcendent politics (Crowd, 1976 and The Day You Will Love Me, 1997) and Mayan modernism (Twelve Moons and Moonshots, 1976), Leandro Katz tackles each of his projects with visual rigor and ingenuity.Consistently engaged in a diverse array of practices, including short experimental film and video works, moving image sculpture installations and artist made books, Katz created two particularly compelling black and white meditations on the notion of a crowd - as a social site of friction and anticipation. In Crowd 7x7 (1976), the camera observes a moving image of a mass of human beings, waiting for a something or someone, breathing a unified gasp of air. The piece is composed of a cube-shaped television dangling by a single chain, as if all the people on the screen are trapped inside. In Rhombus (2011), Katz's camera gazes at a crowd while pure-color rectangles block out pieces of the image, allowing the viewer to observe one individual face after another. …" @default.
