The Video Magnificence of Artist Marco Brambilla

ArtsJournal.com posted a video by Marco Brambilla on its homepage today. It’s a visually stunning experience. Same thing goes for all his video works, which can be seen on his website. Definitely watch the whole video on large screen mode; it has a narrative quality; and there is no end to the minutiae you can spot across the screen. My favorite part is the Busby Berkeley footage at about the 1:30 mark. Brambilla’s work is shown at Cannes and is in the permanent collections of the Guggenheim and the San Francisco Museum of Art.

    About Me

    I am a Brooklyn-based writer and editor covering arts and culture. I was an editor at Art & Antiques magazine, an editor at Picador USA, and an editor for a magazine about coffee and tea. On the best of days, I get to write about art, or work on fiction. My writing can be found on the Huffington Post, The Rumpus, and in Art & Antiques, Art in America, Tin House, Willamette Week, San Francisco magazine, Food Network Magazine, and Fresh Cup magazine. I also write about and promote the arts for Columbia University in New York.
