Microscope is very pleased to present the premiere of The Exquisite Moving Corpse, a 65-minutes collective video made by 60 international artists during the pandemic between 2020 and 2022.
Assembled through a cadavre exquis method in which the first frame of a video visually links to the last frame of the preceding one, the project was conceived and initiated by Chip Lord, Jack Massing and Sean Miller. The event is organized by Liz Flyntz.
From Liz Flyntz:
“In planning The Exquisite Moving Corpse decisions were made to alter the methodology from a drawing strategy and apply it to video, specifically each invited artist would make a one-minute video based on the last frame of the previous minute.
The three originators would begin and curate the moving corpse (inviting 19 other artists each). Sixty artists in sixty minutes. Some artists produced their one minute of footage within hours whereas others took weeks to complete their minute. All the work, play, sharing, and caretaking resulted in Exquisite Moving Corpse, 2022. These two years of collective efforts provided a chance open-source project and an isolated yet connected creative act generated by an interconnected group of international artists.
Lord, Massing, and Miller made the first three minutes and then handed it off to an evolving list of artists whom they invited – a jump into the unknown!”

How wonderful to have the work be ‘historicized’ in this retrospective of the 40 years of Faux Mouvement, the great art institution in Metz, France, by the brilliant Patrick Nardin. What an honor it was to show there with 2 of the best experimental artists working in Brazil since the 1990s, Edson Barrus, and Yan Beauvais, in 2005. in the book, the works are grouped thematically, and my ‘Beijos de Lingua,’ appropriately, is in the chapter, ‘Le mot, la phrase, l’énouncé.’
the video (which in Metz was a video installation), is an example of the text-based work that i have been doing since the 1990s, and it can be seen here:

review of 'Yo soy el monstruo que os habla' by Silvia MARTÍ MARI
“El vídeo “Masks” (2019), es una colaboración del dúo cyriaco lopes terri witek, en el que terri witek, poeta, y ciryaco lopes, quien proviene de las artes plásticas, funden ambos mundos: desde la poesía experimental y las cuestiones literarias a las corporales y plásticas. “Masks” (2019) proviene de una performance que llevaron a cabo en el Centro del Carmen, en un ciclo de poesía internacional, organizado por The Liminal desde su espacio anterior. Trataban la temática de los filósofos presocráticos, las ideas de Jasón y los Argonautas; en la performance terri witek iba vestida de griega clásica y la performance consistía en la proyección sobre distintas partes del cuerpo, mientras iban moviéndose de un claustro a otro en el Centro del Carmen leyendo fragmentos de los presocráticos. También hacían leer a la gente a coro trozos de esos textos proyectados sobre ojos, bocas, etc. En “Masks” una masa informe es transformada, rota, enrollada, etc, sobre los rostros y cuerpos de los artistas, con inserciones de textos. En la galería se presentan además unas postales, que son la primera colaboración del dúo (de hace quince años), que consistió en la recuperación de imágenes de películas de pornografía gay, luego veladas con una serie de constelaciones y poemas, que encajan de infinitas formas entre ellas. La idea original era repartirlas en un evento real y juntar a las personas que tienen las postales que se completan, a modo de puzzle. Durante la pandemia la idea sería que, cuando se pudiera, se uniera a quienes tuvieran la postal complementaria a modo de un grinder o tinder analógico, más romántico...”
