Video Works from the 1970s. Screening
Video Works from the 1970s. An exceptional screening of works from the collections of de Appel and the Netherlands Media Art Institute. Presentation by Mercedes Vicente, curator. Lange was a pioneering New Zealand filmmaker and video artist. He started his career in the 1960s with sculpture, a medium that he later abandoned in favour of film, video and photography. In the early 1970s he produced a series of black-and-white video works that, in their method and subject matter, were quite different from most video art production in that era (which was in most cases medium-specific, conceptual or related to performance).
