Giorgione's Tempest: The First Romantic Picture The work
... Read more
Giorgione's Tempest: The First Romantic Picture The work explores various interpretations of the meaning of the Tempest, the early sixteenth-century masterpiece of the Italian painter Giorgione (d. 1510) that hangs in the Galleria dell'Academia in Venice. The intent of the project was to explore a work of art whose exact meaning is unknown. The film attempts to evoke the mood and atmosphere of the painting, and to make the many conflicting interpretations of it accessible. Trevi The film team set out to question the relationship between the intended meaning of a work of art and the meanings that are ascribed to it over time. They also sought to create a film about how the interpretation of a public monument changs depending on the context of the viewer. As they track the changing interpretations of the Trevi Fountain, the filmmakers adopt different cinematic and editing styles to reflect shifting attitudes toward the work of art. The soundtrack includes excerpts from a memorandum written by Nicola Salvi, architect of the fountain, a passage from Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Marble Faun (1860) and views of contemporary tourists. A Window to Heaven Saint Neophytos (1134-1214) was a Byzantine monk who spent 55 years of his life in a set of caves near Paphos in a remonte corner of the island of Cyprus. He established a community of followers and commisioned artists to paint the cave walls with scenes depicting the lives of the saints and of Christ. The film team sought to create a project about the interplay between twelfth-century words and images, and to draw a parallel between media messages of today and the hidden messages of the hermit Neophytos on the walls of his cave dwelling.

... Read more
De Artificiali Perspective or Anamorphosis In this film, animation techniques elucidate anamorphosis, a method of depiction that uses the rules of perspective to systematiccally distort an image. When looked at from a different angleor in a curved mirror, the distorted image appears normal. Using animation of three-dimensional objects, the filmmakers demonstrate the basic effects of anamorphosis and reveal the hidden meanings that lurk within selected works of art. Architecture of Transcendence This film celebrates the Gothic cathedral in Beauvais, France, without spoken narration. The camera is constantlyy in motion, shaping perception through movement as it explores the interior and exterior and the imagery of the stained glass windows. The visual images are presented in a sequence that parallels that of the cathedra;'s construction. Aerial cinematography reveals the structural details of Beauvais' flying buttresses and situates it in the landscape. Painted Earth: The Art of the Mimbres Indians The film concentrates on an examinatino of the aesthetic aspects of the painted pottery bowls of the mimbres, a Native American people who lived in the isolated mountain valleys and deserts of southwestern New Mexico a thousand years ago. The filmmakers enlisted camera crews trained in the production of food commercials, who used special camera rigging, motorized prop tables and other tools of commercial "table-top" photography to film the pottery. A portion of the narration is provided by cultural historian Rina Swentzell, a member of the Santa Clara Pueblo tribe.

... Read more
Gombrich Themes: Part 1, Illumination in Art and Nature Part 2, Reflection of Art in Nature In this two-part film, British art historian Sir Ernst Gombrich discusses the natural phenomenon of light and its representation on Western art. In Part 1, he discusses the rendering of shadows and how the direction of the source of light creates different effects. In part 2, he distinguishes between the objective character of illumination and the subjective character of reflection. A Day on the Grand Canal with the Emperor of Chia or Surface is Illusion but so is Depth Artist David Hockney guides viewers along a late seventeenth-century Chinese scroll painting, The kangxi Emperor's Southern inspection Tour, scroll seven, which was made before the introduction of Western perspective into Chinese art. He contrasts its multiple viewpoints and anecdotal spatial depictions with another scroll painted about seventy-five years later, The Qianlong Emperor's Southern Inspection Tour, scroll four, which shows the influence of western perspective. Reference is also made to the use of perspective in Italian painting.

... Read more
Leonardo's Deluge Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), the Italian artist and scientist, was fascinated by the movement of water. Late in his life, he composed eleven small drawings of a deluge, drawings that probably reflect theories developed over a lifetime of observation. This video uses state-of-the-art computer animation techniquesand scenes of natural landscapes around the Arno River to underscore the symbolic significance of these drawings. Selections from Leonardo's notebooks comprise the narration, which is spoken by Anjelica Huston. A Mosque in Time Originally built by abd al-Rahman I in the eighth century, the Great Mosque of Cordoba was consecrated as a Christian church in 1236. The video uses a complex layering of images and split screensto deconstruct the architectural space and the forms of islamic and Christian ornament that intertwine two cultures that are alienated in time but bound together in this extraordinary space. Sainte-Geneviève, The Pantheon of Domes The video explores the complex and controversial Parisian church of Sainte-Genevieve, designed by Jacques Soufflot in the 1750s and known today as the Pantheon. It follows two experts in eighteenth-century architecture. Barry Bergdoll of Columbia University and Jean-Pierre mouillesaux of the Caisse Nationale des Monuments Historiques et des Sites, as they explore the building. Their conversation considers the place of the Pantheon in architectural history.

... Read more
The Fayum Portraits: Funerary Painting of Roman Egypt The film presents more thatn fifty mummy portraits painted in the Fayum region of Egypt between about A.D. 100 and 300. It is visually simple, presenting only the works of art themselves against dark backgrounds. At the same time, it is aurally complex, with multiple soundtracks that place these unfamiliar portraits in their historical setting. The soundtracks include ancient texts, interpretation by Richard Brilliant, a "tour guide" and original music. 1867 The French painter Edouard Manet (1832-1883) painted four canvases depicting the execution of Emperor Maximilian of Mexico in 1867. In this short dramatic film, director Ken McMullen evokes the artist's studio and the events of Maximilian's death, using a single, uninterrupted shot to present the atristic thought process though the eyes of the painter. A narration was written by the film's director in the form of an imagined inner monologue. It is presented in voice-over style in French and German (with Engish subtitles) and alludes to the narrative, historical and visual texts that Manet drew upon to form his four versions of the painting. Ma: Space/Time in the Garden of Ryoan-ji The viewer is invited to experience the early sixteenth century stone garden of the Zen Buddhist monastery of Ryoan-ji in Kyoto, Japan. The garden is an embodiment of ma, a Japanse concept that conveys both time and space. Slow-moving images of the garden are intercut with poetic reflections by Japanese architect Arata Isozaki, accompanied by music composed for the film by Takehisa Kosugi.

... Read more
Between 1987 and 1990, the Program for Art on Film commissioned fourteen films and videos through its Production Laboratory with Joan Shigekawa as program executive. The Lab was conceived as an arena for inquiry and experimentation?a means of exploring and expanding the cinematic vocabulary of films on art. Each production was designed as an extended collaboration between a filmmaker and an art expert and was intended to explore the issues of collaboration in content-driven filmmaking, seeking new approaches that might influence future films on art. Because research for the Art on Film Database indicated that the vast majority of films on art feature twentieth-century western works, the Production Lab focused on art made before 1900. Art on Film/Film on Art presents the results of the Production Laboratory in their original context: as experiments. Film subjects range from the Japanese concept of space and time to Egypto-Roman funerary portraits, and they illustrate a broad variety of approaches and interpretations. The series was made with two audiences in mind: those individuals and organizations interested in embarking on the adventure of making a film about art; and those individuals and organizations?programmers, teachers, broadcasters?who use film to reach a wider audience. The most successful of these works have achieved a harmony between art-historical information and the film's own aesthetic imperatives. All of the collaborators have struggled with the need for a certain overlap of responsibility, sharing power and creative/editorial control.
