Double Vision
From the multiple perspectives in Jan van Eyck’s The Arnolfini Marriage to
the multiple soup cans of Andy Warhol, Western art abounds with examples of
"double
vision." This program looks first at duplication within works of art via
mirrors,
naturally reflective surfaces, and shadows and then at stylized repetition,
whether
it be through patterns integral to a work or through patterns that in
themselves
constitute the work. More esoteric aspects, such as implied and distorted
reflections, the otherness of reflected images, the weightiness of shadows,
the
fear-inducing quality of doubled images, and repeating as a means of
progressing,
are also addressed. (27 minutes)
