Fine Arts Unternehmen Film in association with PLAY
gallery for still and motion pictures presents:

A film by Knut Åsdam 
Produced by Fine Arts Unternehmen Film 

Filter City, 2003. 35mm film and DVD. 21 min. Colour,
stereo.  

One of Åsdam¹s most major film/video works to date,
Filter City focuses on two women their relation to
eachother, to a larger social group and to a city that
is in transformation ­architectonically, socially and
politically. The film is mostly shot outdoors in
modern apartment/housing complexes, using scenes that
are interchangeable with different western cities. 
Through dialogue and filmic descriptions of places and
bodies, Åsdam brings the characters into a narration
of the city and a complex of desires for friendship,
intimacy and meaning through language. 

Knut Åsdam  lives and works in New York. He has
exhibited extensively in Europe and the Americas. He
has shown large scale installations or solo shows at;
the Nordic pavilion in the 1999 Venice Biennale; the
1999 Melbourne International Biennale; Kunsthalle
Vienna; the Tate Britain, London; the Museo Rufino
Tamayo, Mexico City; Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt;
Palazzo delle Papesse, Siena; Musée d¹Art Moderne de
la Ville de Paris; Moderna Museet, Stockholm; PS1Š 
This year he has major presentations at the Istanbul
Biennale and the Irish Museum of Modern Art among
others.
