'The Lark Ascending'...An audio/video presentation by Mark Wallinger. The screen goes from total darkness to pure white. The sound moves from deafening subsonmics through to the natural pitch...over a 33 minute period. Reference Vaughan Williams orchestral work 'The Lark Ascending' of 1914 was not played until after the First World War. 'Video Installation'. Footage from Franco Zefferelli's 1977 film 'Jesus of Nazereth' is projected with a large black rectangle obscuring the central part of the screen leaving just a border of the film showing. the black square is like the paintings of Malevich or a censor's blacking out of a sequence that should not be seen or cut. London, 2004
