 This show offers proof in as much as proof is subject to interpretation. There is this active engagement about it of a viewer piecing together the information here and figuring out what is the unique perspective that the artist brings to it. Sergei Eisenstein was a pioneering Russian filmmaker. He worked in between the 1920s and 1940s and he was often working with the Russian government. What's really special about the way we've installed the Eisenstein films is that we've slowed them down to about one percent of their regular speed. We've stripped them of sound to get the viewer to be able to see exactly how the filmmaker composed each shot. Eisenstein really canonized this idea of something we may take for granted nowadays, which is the effect that a certain image or a certain set of images can have either emotionally or psychologically. Proof affords us this opportunity to think about the relationship between art-making and the world around us and the power that art-making has.
