Staff Picks

Date
August 1–31, 2023

“A digitally animated version of Sol LeWitt’s Wall Drawing #349, which was commissioned by Toronto’s Mercer Union gallery in 1981. Recreating LeWitt’s geometric vocabulary and primary colour palette, 349 careens through emblazoned emblems, lifted from walls and transported into dialogue with LeWitt’s exploration of spatial systems and human emotion..”—Andréa Picard, Toronto International Film Festival

349 is presented on e-flux Film alongside lay claim to an island (2009), Towards a Vanishing Point (2012), and The Initiation Well (2020) as the August 2023 edition of the monthly series Staff Picks featuring Chris Kennedy.
