Movimento, Jonas Englert, 2026
Video, 3-channel, 16:9 (vertical), silent

Movimento explores, against the backdrop of the cinematic revival of sculpture—from postwar documentary films to Antonioni’s Michelangelo study—the mutual conditionality of film and three-dimensionality, of time, movement, and sculpture. Through moving-image 3D renderings, Movimento stages the sculptural as a luminal event. The gaze is directed toward the fragmentary, the close framing. It is not the camera movement but solely the movements of light and shadow that let depth emerge here, setting the seemingly bygone into motion: Foggini’s David, the Uffizi Wrestlers, Pilon’s Mater Dolorosa, and a wooden Saint Sebastian.
