Amy Granat

September 8 – October 22, 2011

Amy Granat is widely acknowledged for her experimental 16-millimeter films, having developed a distinct visual language unified by movement, absence, dissonance, and exploration of the sublime. While her films and photographs often recall techniques employed by earlier generations of artists, Granat distinguishes herself by superseding strict Materialist or Structuralist concerns to engage with the full lyrical capacity of her medium. Granat's films demonstrate a holistic approach to the total potential of film itself: as a technology, as a narrative form, as a physical object, and fundamentally as a document of activity transmitted through time and light.
