Liliana Porter at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art

The two videos brought together in this exhibition differ in length, color palette, story, and sound. They are similar, however, in how their artists made them: the labor- and time-intensive process of stop-motion animation. Liliana Porter and Ana Tiscornia, and Christian Marclay took thousands of still photographic images of their chosen subject matter, then placed these images into a specific sequence in a video-making program.
