Duchamp Videos

Recently, Dutch artist Guido van der Werve filmed a scene at the Marshall Chess Club in which he plays a game of chess with grandmaster Leonid Yudasin. For this film that explores the parallels between chess and piano, van der Werve, a member of the Marshall Chess Club himself, and a trained composer of classical music, built a chess table that functions as a mechanical piano. The piano will be the centerpiece for live performance for Performa09, performing the composition that he wrote for his particular film. The composition is written for chess, 9 string players, of two first violins, two second violins, two violas, two cellos and one bass, and will be performed by himself and the Manhattan Chamber Orchestra at the legendary chess club frequented by Marcel Duchamp and Bobby Fischer.

These are some clips I had taken at the exhibitions Multiplex: Directions in art 1970-now and Geometry of Motion . including: -Information (1986) by Bill Viola -Angel Dust (2000) by Jeremy Blake -Head (1993) by Cheryl Donegan -I am Making Art (1970) by John Baldessari -The Making of Big Business (2002) by Clemens von Wedemeyer -I'm not sure who did the 6th sculpture on the video. -Anemic Cinema (1922) by Marcel Duchamp -Filmstudie (1926) by Hans Richter *note-in both of these, I had checked to make sure that cameras were allowed. -I will not attempt to capture/upload full-length clips. -Both of these are highly recommendable shows, and I strongly suggest seeing them in person. -this is only about 5-10% of what I had seen there. -Other videos featured included Sigalit Landau, Gilbert & George, Robert Smithson, and others -if the Museum of Modern Art wants this removed, then I will happily remove it.
