AFTER DUCHAMP reconstructs the seminal painting NUDE DESCENDING A STAIRCASE in the form of a film installation. It transliterates the concept of cubist space & perspective through the film medium & introduces the element of duration into the painting. It is an "expansion" rather than a literal transcription of the original, exploring the reduction of time to the instant through repeat filming & superimposition. The project develops concepts explored in some of Raban’s earlier films such as ANGLES OF INCIDENCE (1973) - a cubist exploration of a view through a window - & PINK TROUSERS film installation, shown at the Acme Gallery in 1977.
