About the Item

Untitled #242 (Kingston Falls) Photography by Josh Azzarella, 2019 “Time exists somewhere between memory and anticipation” – Carlo Rovelli Ones first impulse is to think of time as a large expanse. However, time is also that slim moment between what has just happened and what we anticipate will happen next. In cinema, this moment materializes in the unimaged space between two frames of film – 1/24th of a second. This body of work collects pieces of film that have been screened in cinemas throughout the world, and which portray moments of transition in the narrative. One image or understanding is leaving the frame, and another is about to appear; the black space in between is for a moment the liminal space between these realities. These fragments are scanned and enlarged (including their scratches, blemishes, and detritus gained from use) and reproduced at large scale. Further, the mechanics of the projector and the lens system in the theater have been undone. When a film is viewed using a projector, the film is fed through the projector upside down and backwards and the mechanics of the lens corrects the image so it is oriented properly. Undoing the corrections creates images that are upside down and backwards, both of which complicate our understanding of images with which we may be familiar. Additional information: Medium: Dye sublimation metal print Condition: Excellent Editions 1-3 of 3 + 1AP Dimensions: 48 × 55 in 121.9 × 139.7 cm About artist: Born in Ohio and now based in New York City, photographer and videographer Josh Azzarella creates historically minded works that force unsettling questions. His photographs of Iraqi prisoners of war, for instance, are edited so that the scene’s animating activity or feature—a gun, a body—are removed. What’s left is a disquieting and boldly incomplete image. Clocking in at 120 hours, Azzarella’s 2011 film based on a small clip from The Wizard of Oz is one of the longest experimental films ever made. He has exhibited across the country, and has works in the permanent collections of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Land & Sea VII (B)
By Colleen Fitzgerald
Located in Sante Fe, NM
Edition of 5 Colleen Fitzgerald's series, "Stamina," provides new approaches to conventional subjects by utilizing the materials and tools of photography in non-traditional ways. A unique physical process combines aspects of sculpture and photography, subverting the idealized two-dimensional photograph and providing a new entry point to the enduring photographic subjects of natural landscapes, seascapes, and more. To create the photographs, unexposed large sheets of positive film are cut and bent into three dimensional shapes before being exposed inside a camera outfitted with a custom film holder that accepts the film as a three-dimensional object instead of as a standard, flat sheet. The results on the shaped film can...

Untitled (FT #2390)
By Kevin O'Connell
Located in Sante Fe, NM
I find comfort in forests, especially the few remaining old-growth stands of the Pacific Northwest. Life is churning in such places. Death and rebirth create a rich musk of decay, that is accompanied by the acidic aroma of conifers. Occasionally, a sweet waft will come to you from some unknown source, and the peat-softened ground muffles a sound, leaving one with a sense of quiet and calm. The green pallet soothes the eyes. You touch a tree that has fallen decades ago, perhaps a giant Sitka four feet in diameter, and it stains your hand. Soot, lichens, fungus, and a variety of microscopic detritivores have left their mark. You catch a glimpse of a rodent that is living in the hulk. A small snake...
