    A pioneer of experimental cinema, the Los Angeles artist Pat O’Neill developed innovative techniques for radically altering imagery in the predigital era. His highly inventive 16mm films from the 1960s and 1970s explore dense layering and movement within a still frame. In recent years, O’Neill has reworked several of his early films into multiple projections.

  • Cineinfinito #87: Pat O'Neill

    By on

    Pat O’Neill’s rarely screened masterpiece Water and Power (1989) is a technological feat on the terrifying desert created by Los Angeles’ enormous water consumption. O’Neill focused intently on the industry that sprang up around Los Angeles, ‘the city that changed land into desert’, which he filmed with the use of time-lapse photography and optical printing and animation. In this way, he managed to expose the inexorable conflict between industry and nature.

    Water and Power (Pat O'Neill, 1989)

    Pat O’Neill is an inspirational figure on the Los Angeles avant-garde film scene. Considered a master and innovator in his use of the optical printer, the unexpected compositions and cinematographic landscapes that make up his cinema are the fruit of his pioneering, virtuoso artisan work which, in contrast with the digital age, strongly reveals its visual and chromatic intensity.
