Light Traps

Light Traps

1975 • 7 min
In the 1970s, Californian artist Louis Hock created a number of studies in the effects of pure colour. The late 1960s saw the rise of the ‘colour field’ vogue which arose in abstract painting in reaction to the emphasis on individual expressive gestures in Abstract Expressionism. ‘Colour field’ artists like Mark Rothko and Barnett Newman sought to empty the image plane out into broad, flat areas of colour. With its humming bars of pure hues, Light Traps is like a moving ‘colour field’ painting – a ‘colour field’ film. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2013.

An unnamed man goes to a hotel to commit suicide with pills while listening to songs by Marlene Dietrich.

Television Assassination

Television Assassination

1975 • 14 min • United States of America
TELEVISION ASSASSINATION is one of two major works that Bruce Conner began in the days immediately following the Kennedy assassination and the artist's own thirtieth birthday, in the fall of 1963. While REPORT utilized montage and a strongly articulated structure to analyze the forces at work in the killing of a President (including our own complicity), TELEVISION ASSASSINATION is a complex, synthesizing work that weaves together fragments from the flux and flow of that history as it was in the process of being constructed and displayed daily to a nation of spectators. A monument to the enduring potency of the Kennedy myth and to the marketers who created it, the installation brings Conner's critique full-circle into the very medium that formalized it. In so doing, the work seems to suggest that the final resting place for the slain President was neither Brookline nor Arlington National Cemetery, but rather in the box, on the tube, held suspended forever on the television screen.

Padres

Padres

1975 • 41 min • Portugal
Padres begins with a fabulous shot. Instead of two parents, we see two cats, one black and one white. Without exaggeration, one could say that these cats are the first "parents" of the film, happily fighting for food, one more aggressive, the other more passive. It turns out to be a brilliant association in "sacralizing" the animals and eroticizing them.
