- ANTHONY McCALL
British artist Anthony McCall was a key figure in the avant-garde London Filmmakers Co-operative in the 1970s. After moving to New York in 1973, McCall developed his ‘solid light’ film series, conceiving the ‘Line Describing a Cone’. Creating simple projections that emphasis the sculptural qualities of a beam of light. At the end of the 1970s, McCall withdrew from making art. Over 20 years later, he acquired a new dynamic and re-opened his ‘solid light’ series, this time using digital projectors instead of 16mm film.
“A post-dada approach to art, and life that embraced novelty, pleasure, optimism, love, laughter, and an immediate appeal to the senses without concern for convention, the past, morality or rationality.”
Francis Picabia’s lifestyle manifesto, 1924
