*LIGHT OBJECTS*
cinema paintings & cinema sculptures by Joel Schlemowitz
September 15 to October 7, 2012
Opening SAT 9/15 6-9PM
live film performance at 7PM

Microscope Gallery is very pleased to launch its 3rd year with *Light
Objects*, a solo exhibition of light-based works by Joel Schlemowitz
opening Saturday, September 15th. The Brooklyn artist – whose short poetic
films screen at a range of venues including Anthology Film Archives, MoMA
and The Whitney Museum - provides celluloid film an existence beyond the
projection room in his new camera paintings & cinema sculptures. In a
series of more than a dozen camera paintings, Schlemowitz illuminates
original 16mm film in light boxes – with the many frames joining to form a
single, static mosaic-like image – to re-contextualize the notion of the
movie and the relationship between film and photography. Modified projector
works, shadow plays and other related sculptures considering the elements
and tools of light and time will also be on view.

Joel Schlemowitz’s films have screened widely at cinemas, festivals, and
institutions including including the New York Film Festival, Tribeca Film
Festival, MoMA, The Whitney Museum, Harvard Film Archives, New York
Underground Film Festival, The London Film Festival, Millennium Film
Archives, Robert Beck Memorial Cinema, and many others.  His light boxes,
sculptures and installations have been previously exhibited at Courthouse
Gallery at Anthology Film Archives, KUMUKUMU Gallery, Museum of
Contemporary Cinema (Madrid), Ukrainian Institute of America, The Images
Festival (Canada), Bound & Unbound Gallery, and Microscope Gallery
(Brooklyn).
