Time Out says Rate it

This compendious show of shifting perspectives takes in astonishing terrains and outlandish visions, from frame-by-frame motion pictures and line-drawn superheroes, to glimpses of truly virtual realities and immersive gaming possibilities. Upstairs, the video booths allow concentrated one-on-ones with each short or snippet and what look like the interested tinkerings of artists such as Kara Walker or Francis Alÿs soon blossom into the fully formed animation practices of Nathalie Djurberg and the somewhat neglected Martin Arnold, whose cut-and-paste clip-collage of Hollywood schmaltz should not be missed.
