Wavelength, Michael Snow, film still

An opportunity to see three films by Canadian conceptual artist, filmmaker and musician Michael Snow. The fascination of Snow's early films comes from their ability to provide the audience with the space to consider the essence of the medium through formal investigations of pure film space and time. The much discussed Wavelength (1966-7, 45 mins) consists of a forty-five minute tracking shot through the length of a room, interrupted periodically by human drama. In Standard Time (1967, 8 mins) the camera continually pans/tilts up/down then left/right as it describes the domestic space of Snows home. The final film Breakfast (Table Top Dolly) (1972-6, 17 mins) responds to Wavelength - as the forward motion of the camera destroys a crammed breakfast table.
