Five Dedicated to Ozu
A Close-up of Abbas Kiarostami
February 8 - 17, 2013
A stunning five-part video work that engulfs the viewer in the mesmerizing details of small moments in mostly watery landscapes. One of Kiarostami’s most daring experiments. Screening with Roads of Kiarostami
One of Kiarostami’s most daring experiments, and his first work to explore the creative possibilities of video, this film comprises five sections, all in fixed continuous shots focusing on moments with microscopic detail. The camera trains on driftwood floating in the water, or human passersby at the beach crossing paths with ducks, or a finale landscape before dawn where slivers of light become the stuff of pure visual drama.
