“The Image Moves, New Film and Video Work by Athens Artists" is an exhibition of artists working with the moving image in their creative practice. The work ranges in subject matter and topicality, but all share a non-narrative, experimental, and personal approach to the time-based mediums of film and video. This collection highlights the often undervalued and too little seen moving image work created in Athens, a town at times more associated with other forms of art. The work in the exhibit leans into the fact that both film and video are made of a series of still images that coalesce into fleeting and fluid fragments of expression, emotion, connection, and wonder.
Artists included are Drew Gebhardt, Katz Tepper, Jamie Bull, Selia Hooten, Vivian Liddell, CC Calloway, Shawn Campbell and AJ Aremu.
Curator Keith Wilson is a filmmaker and artist based in Athens, Georgia whose films have screened at Sundance, the Berlinale, Hot Docs, the U.S. National Gallery of Art, documenta14, and the Museum of Modern Art. He is the producer of the feature documentaries Joonam (Sundance 2023) and I Didn’t See You There (2022), which won the Directing Award for U.S. Documentary at Sundance and an Independent Spirit Award.
Keith is an Assistant Professor in the Entertainment & Media Studies Department at the University of Georgia.
