    October 14 to November 26, 2006

    Pulse: Film & Painting After the Image

    Pulse brings experimental film into dialogue with contemporary abstract painting by presenting the two art forms adjacent to one another in the same gallery space. The films were selected for their tendencies to dismantle the stability of the representational image, or to dispense with it altogether, and the paintings for their matching emphasis on optical vibration, repetition, rhythm, layering and blurring of figure-ground distinctions. Instead of the fixed image of narrative cinema and representational painting, our selection brings out the counterimage (and afterimage) of process. The prevailing aesthetic is pulsatile–similar to that of blinking neon signs or the strobe effects of video games. In such an optically active environment, perhaps, the shared concerns of artists who work in time-based and space-based media will become more apparent.

    Co-curated by Ingrid Jenkner and Barbara Sternberg, in consultation with Gerda Cammaer.
