Christian Tomaszewski, Fellow in Fine Arts, 2008As part of the annual “Grassomania” tribute to Günter Grass, Gdańska Galeria Miejska will be screening Mr. Tomaszewski’s film Erased/Nieobecni. Taking the concept of breaking the fourth wall to a new level, Mr. Tomaszewski “enters” the films Blue Velvet and The Tin Drum and removes all their characters, leaving the plots to be advanced only by the sets, sounds, and lighting. As the gallery explains, “this simple yet effective and hypnotizing experiment feeds on many common fantasies and fears—from a fear of plague or nuclear Armageddon, to a fear or desire to be invisible, to a familiar fantasy of breaking in to the 'other sphere' and destabilizing autonomy of the celluloid.” The film will be showing through January 29 at the Gdansk, Poland, gallery. |
