Abstract

Bill Viola: The Passions, is a mesmerising exhibition of recent video works by the internationally-renowned American artist Bill Viola. The Passions 2000–02 is a series of twelve works in which Viola examines the manifestations of emotions, through silence, extreme slow-motion, and psychologically-gripping depictions of the faces and bodies of his performers. The exhibition also includes Five angels for the Millennium 2001.

This exhibition has been organised by the J Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles [Gallery media, 2005].
