Another Horizon: Stephanie Barber’s Cinema
Multi-discipline artist Stephanie Barber is renowned for her playful approach to language and moving image. She returns to the National Gallery this spring to present a program of several new and recent films, including Another Horizon, “where the sky and the earth meet, is always elsewhere, a promised place where these two elements come together. A metaphor, an orienting, a promise of transition, change, transcendence” (2020, 9 minutes); and Oh, My Homeland, about “identity, love, power, patriotism and the … potential of art through the viewing of a face receiving adoration. A minimal gesture akin to the practice every portrait painter or mother recognizes as ineffably powerful” (2019, 4 minutes); among other titles. All quotes are by the artist. All titles will be shown in 16mm format. Total running time is approximately 70 minutes.
Join us for a post-screening discussion with filmmaker Stephanie Barber, in person.
