Kinetic Art and Architecture part 2 – Anthony McCall

December 1st, 2006

During my current work research (see previous post) I came accross the beautiful work of Anthony McCall and thought I’d post it as my second post in a series on kinetic art and architecture. He used film to explore ideas of space, architecture and duration – in his piece Long Film for Four Projectors  (1974) see below  he conjured up four walls of intersecting light. The actual work occurs in the space between the film projector and the screen.

As with his earlier work, Line Describing a Cone (1973) see below, McCall encourages a heightened sense of relational involvement with his audience as the solidity of the light is enhanced through the use of fog machines.
