"Animations" accompanies the first museum exhibition to focus on
the films and videos of the acclaimed contemporary German artist
and photographer Thomas Demand (born 1964). Demand is best known
for his large-scale color photographs of objects or sites taken
from images in the popular media, which he painstakingly
reconstructs in paper. With these new films and videos, Demand has
taken this practice to the next stage, extending his investigations
in to real time and space by animating his paper constructions. The
primary focus of the volume is the two-minute tour de force video
entitled "Pacific Sun," which takes place in a cruise ship bar
during a violent storm at sea. This volume--the first to survey
Demand's films and videos--brings these latest works back full
circle, but as video stills. Also included is a major essay on the
artist by the acclaimed photo critic Michael Fried.
