Anna Best, Video Still, Stars

Gasworks presents the third and final instalment of Nights In: a series of one-night-only, silent moving image presentations, selected from open submission. As with previous selections, there’s an array of working procedures and effects, including animation, optical illusions, and text, but all works unified by one crucial aspect: silence.

At a time when broadcast-quality, stereo blasting, DVD producing, video technology reaches the high street at accessible prices, artists continue to make silent films. This selection of works for Nights In will highlight the economic use of the medium by artists who, in making uncomplicated films, eschew any unnecessary use of sound.

Victoria Arney, Out of Sync: A looped Super 8 film features the artist continuously running away from the camera.

Anna Best, Stars: Aeroplanes have been transformed into flickering comets in the night sky by ‘editing’ out darkness between the blinking of their lights.

Andrea Crociani, Archiving is a Bourgeois Art: A fast-paced animation using diagrammatic line drawings of jet fighters.

Simon Morse, Stalwart: On-screen texts inform the viewer of the many extraordinary circumstances of their death.

Hayley Skipper, Movie: Dorothy’s ruby shoes (from the Wizard of Oz) are sparkling on the feet of a woman standing in a building site.

Bettina Wilhelm, Polka Dot Forever: A bouncing trampolinist wearing a polka dot dress creates Op Art for video.

Works selected by Fiona Boundy, Simon Faithfull, Goshka Macuga and Neil Zakiewicz.

Nights In is generously supported by Holsten Pils
