Ar Detroy
Un Acto De Intensidad
February 9–12, 2000

Presented in conjunction with the Media City International Festival of Experimental Film and Video.

Artcite will be featuring Ar Detroy’s Un Acto De Intensidad (An Act of Intensity), a South American media arts collective who have been working together since 1986. Un Acto De Intensidad is a 5-channel video and sound installation illustrating an open air salt flat in a remote Argentine province.

In an attempt at provoking a metaphysical perception of suspended time, every movement and sound becomes so intensely sluggish that each instant seems to be eternal, threatening the finite and provisional nature of the human figures it envelopes.
