David Claerbout: Then Came This

Yvon Lambert

In the first of four works, night falls quickly while a woman moves extremely slowly. Neat trick, and questions raised about narrative time recur throughout the show. Two projections show brief events from innumerable angles. Aesthetically, each image could stand alone, but together they reveal a story. While bridging still and moving images, Claerbout adopts techniques from both. Closes 4/26.
