DRUMS AND TRAINS

by Paul WINKLER
2007 / color / sound / 12' 00

In Paul Winkler’s highly personal 16mm film, Drums and Trains, a seemingly innocent child’s toy train and the ominous sounds drawn from archival footage of a boy soldier striking a drum are looped, masked and reprinted across the screen surface of the work. These techniques have been perfected by Winkler over a span of forty years of experimental filmmaking and reflect a fine balance struck between technical virtuosity and emotional resonance.
