Phantom Ride, by Daniel Crooks.
The Ian Potter Cultural Trust and Acmi will present the world premiere of Phantom Ride, a new work from Melbourne-based moving-image artist Daniel Crooks..
Phantom Ride is the second Ian Potter Moving Image Commission (Ipmic), a ten-year, biennial program providing $100,000 for the creation of new works by Australian artists.
Opening at Acmi on February 16, Crooks' work is a two-screen video work inspired by the history of cinema and the way in which trains are entwined with the history of experimentation with the moving image..
Crooks' installation creates a continuous tracking shot that moves the viewer through a collage of Australian railways. The work references the 'phantom rides' of early cinemas.
Pre-dating narrative features, these short films showed the progress of a train moving forward by mounting a camera on its front.
.Phantom Ride comes out of my long held fascination with the convergence of trains,...
