Overview

A contemporary critical examination of film history from the visionary behind the Academy Award-nominated documentary Time New York-born, New Orleans-based filmmaker Garrett Bradley (born 1986) explores how images help shape our view of the world. She is particularly interested in the ways America is represented through visual culture. Spanning narrative, documentary and experimental forms of filmmaking, Revolutions reflects the artist's turn towards abstraction and the increasingly sculptural nature of her work. Her work invites us to take a step back and consider the question: what are we actually looking at? In doing so, Bradley makes the viewer aware of the pitfalls of representation and unpacks the mechanisms that influence how we perceive ourselves and others. With a rich selection of film stills and contributions by curators Rebecca Matalon and Vincent van Velsen, this publication offers not only insight into Bradley's oeuvre, but also into the mechanisms that shape our perception.
