Synopsis:
Scher was recently commissioned by Harry Stendhal, co-owner of the
Maya Stendhal Gallery, to make a film portrait of his friend Susan
Shin. The resulting film, which was unveiled at StendhalÌs
gallery as part of ScherÌs recent show "Milk of Amnesia,"
is a two-minute animation loop. Scher shoots his subjects in 16mm
and then rotoscopes the film the old-fashioned way, projecting and
drawing it onto paper. The paper then becomes the outline of his paintings,
which he rephotographs and animates. In the end he has a film loop
and some 120 paintings of his subject.
