Dancing With/In the Eye

New Work by Hernandez and Rosenthal

San Francisco Art Institute





Hernandez and Rosenthal’s Super 8mm works navigate, penetrate, and celebrate a lyrical and fractured interplay of natural, urban, and emulsive worlds. Al’s films–Jump Fence, in which a suburban backyard becomes a dreamscape for the genesis of a new self, That Mission Rising, and Good Medicine–are surreal explorations into personal and planetary identity conveyed through dramatic camera movement and dance. KPR’s films include Near Windows, a time-lapsed tapestry of light, unsuspecting neighbors, and street drama; Blackbirds, a meditation on the impermanent nature of violence on TV; and Flow, a collage of celluloid cut-outs and weathered surfaces, a torrential ode to H20.
