Art in the Twenty-First Century Inc. Season Three, 2005
National Broadcast on PBS
Each program for Season Three concludes with an original work of video art by the artists Teresa Hubbard / Alexander Birchler. Known for their haunting video projections, Hubbard and Birchler's work alters temporal, cinematic and architectural expectations of the viewer through the use of looping narratives. For Art:21, their first commission for television, they have created a series of beautiful and enigmatic short films. Each film uses the same setting – the interior of a police car at night – and begins when one officer brings a cup of coffee for another. Using recurring and non-recurring characters, interrelated dialogue, and ambient sound, the suite of films evoke not only the Seaon Three themes of Power, Memory, Structures and Play, but also sleep, dreams and longing.
