Nothing Is Something Anne Rees Mogg, 1966
In Nothing is Something the title is a quotation from Duchamp Anne ReesMogg directs her gaze to beautifully fragile moments drawn from the everyday: spectrums of colour on bubbles floating on a blue sky or expanding into a delicate crystalline structure, the silky effects of oil on moving water, and rainbow reflections from the filmmakers collection of cut glass decanter stoppers. ReesMogg was a painter who began making films whilst teaching at Chelsea School of Art and the Slade in the 1960s, encouraging her students to pick up the camera.
