Deep Play by Harun Farocki
06 Jun 10 - 04 Sep 10
A multimedia installation by harun Farocki.
Harun Farocki’s Deep Play explores the 2006 World Cup finales from different new perspectives. 12 screens display a unique analysis of the 120 minute soccer match that was followed by a shootout won by Italy. It shows different “clean feed” angles taken from the last World Cup Final combining his own and official footage, digital analyses as well as 2D and 3D animation sequences. The installation combines all the detailed media coverage, from behind the scenes to the screaming coaches to the players who become avatars with their live counterparts.
The Goethe-Institut and the Johannesburg Art Gallery present the installation which was part of the documenta 12 at Johannesburg Art Gallery opening on 6 June.
The artist will be available for a walk-about on 29 June at 2pm-3pm.
