Dead Horse Point

2006 • 18 min

Dead Horse Point is a film that expresses my feelings of ambivalence for the western genre, and America as a nation. It is the fourth part in a series of North American landscape films that I have been shooting since 2003. It essentially deals with the notion of "the old west," "the frontier," the blurred line between historical fact and myth, the role of Hollywood in the historical process, the importance of celebrity in America, and finally the influence that the western landscape has had in defining the mythology of "the old west."

Game on Morel's Hill (Group Action)

During an evening meeting of the Young Creative Workshop Encounters (held December 1971 in Elbląg, Poland), an argument divided the group of artists.

Each team watched as the other made a move, and fourteen were made in total over three hours. Documented through photographs and text, Kweik and Kulik presented this material as a narrated slideshow in the 1970s-80s, and in 2006 recreated this in the form of a digital video.
