This is Not a Place: Work by Isaac Gale and David Jensen

Join XYandZ Gallery for "This is Not a Place: Work by Isaac Gale & David Jensen", a multi-media installation debuting film, sculpture, and photo work from Gale and Jensen's ongoing film project for notable Eau Claire-based band, Bon Iver.

Compiled over the past year, th...e duo's film work traverses the wilds of April Base, the Wisconsin studio of Bon Iver's Justin Vernon. Trundling through rich forest landscapes and ephemeral, sculptural environments, the films’ pure visual moments mesh with graceful digital effects, creating entangled shrines and smoke-filled twilights. At its root, the work deals with themes of space--both external and psychological. From physical installations to manipulated stills to multiple video projection environments, "This is Not a Place" will not only re-contextualize the finished pieces of Gale and Jensen's Bon Iver project, but also highlight the process and continuing evolution of it.
