Listen as we step inside the exhibit at The Maria Leuff Foundation featuring the films of Bruce Nauman. The two |
|
films on view are centered upon single repetitive actions. Each of these actions performed in isolation, before a |
STORE |
stationary set camera, between the years of 1967 and 1968. |

|
Walking in an Exaggerated Manner Around the Perimeter of a Square is in part a study of the body in movement and |
|
its relationship to disappearance. Consciously constrained to the perimeter of a square, variations in the artist's |
|
movements are exaggerated only to disappear and reappear again with a methodic, almost traipsing gait. Scored to |
|
silence, the film seems to measure the duration of an ever-diminishing progress, one which seems all the more inert |
|
with each completed turn around its periphery. |
|
|
|
Playing a Note on the Violin While I Walk Around the Studio hinges on the sustained sparsity of two notes played on |
|
a violin. Below Nauman, we see materials strewn about the floor in no discernible order, composed without any real |
|
|
necessity or logic. Each continuous note produces an unnerving combination of sound leveling into a loop of |
|
|
orchestral monotony. |

The exhibition is open by appointment through July 14th, 2021. The Maria Leuff Foundation is a private |
|
|
exhibition space located in rural upstate New York. For more information please visit their website. |
