Anthony McCall
As an expat avant garde filmmaker living in New York in the 1970s, Anthony McCall's movie-making experiments culminated in a series of 'solid light' films that pared down the cinematic process to just light and duration. When McCall projected simple animated sequences of lines and ellipses, either horizontally or vertically, the effect of dust particles caught in the pyramidal light beam transformed the two-dimensional lines into three-dimensional, shifting, gossamer planes and curves. After a two-decade hiatus from making art between 1978-1998 McCall's return to his 'solid light' series has resulted in a renewed international interest in his work, including a two-venue London exhibition featuring an installation of four vertical pieces at Ambika P3 and related drawings at Sprüth Magers.

IWAJLA KLINKE
Berlin-based photographer and filmmaker Iwajla Klinke pushes the boundaries of traditional photography in the portraits she shoots. In an exhibit set for Berlin in April, 2011 Iwajla Klinke will showcase her most recent and discussed series called Ritual Memories.
In Ritual Memories, Iwajla Klinke displays her fascination with the way cultures adorn bodies sacredly for religious and spiritual ceremonies and applies her own twist. The subjects in her photo shoot are pale and nude to expose the bizarre objects placed on them.
The subjects in the shoot bare raw meat, dead mice and ducks, insects and evening hot dripping candle wax. Iwajla Klinke adds laced accessories to accent the models.
At first glance of Iwajla Klinke’s photo shoot, anyone can agree it’s outlandish yet captivating. It will be on display at STYX Projects Berlin this upcoming month.
