CLOSER OUTSIDE

by Vincent GRENIER
1981-1982 / 16mm / color / silent / 1S / 10' 00

The precisions and idiosyncrasies of movement associated with domestic activities are closely stared at, or as it sometimes happens, watched carefully through the peripheral vision. This, while rhyming, is done in alternance, thus creating sudden rushes in the mind while spaces collapse.
"CLOSER OUTSIDE, the highlight of the program is an amazing film. Grenier, whose background includes painting, has a powerful command over color as an emotional hook, giving the film an anticipation and suspensefulness not generally associated with minimalist films. Just as the viewer is drawn into the sensuous presence of a setting, suddenly colors shift, objects seem dislocated in space, identities change, all creating an almost visceral shock of surprise to the viewer..." -George Howell, Buffalo EveningNews
