Moving Picture Show by Jürg Lehni and Contributors

Created Jürg Lehni, Moving Picture Show is an installation presented during the 23rd International Poster and Graphic Design Festival in Chaumont where the Jesuit chapel was transformed into a workshop, a scenario of conception, production and a projection space. The installation deals with the current migration from analogue to digital film projection in cinemas across the globe by reappropriating a 35mm motion picture film using high-powered precision laser.

In Moving Picture Show, a scenario of animated drawing and text is created by applying the process normally used by the film industry to etch subtitles into the emulsion layer of 35mm film. By etching away the emulsion using a high-powered precision laser, only the clear base of the film remains and when projected onto the screen the lines appear bright and clear.
