Description:
J. Hoberman describes Serene Velocity (1970) as a striking film created by systematically changing the focus of a stationary zoom lens pointed at an empty hallway in an institutional building. This technique highlights the contrast between the frames' flatness and the exaggerated perspective of the compositions. Without moving the camera, the filmmaker transformed the fluorescent geometry of the location into a dynamic, mandala-like image. Hoberman suggests the film's approach to visual storytelling is akin to how Giotto might have made action movies.
