沃夫岡‧史托希勒 Wolfgang Stoerchle 1972, 02:31mins

簡介/Synopsis

沃夫岡‧史托希勒（1944－1976）16歲便隨父母移民北美，雖然他在歐洲幾乎沒有一點名氣，但在美國卻屬於上世紀70年代最重要的錄影藝術之先鋒。關於他的創作只有一個名為「1970年到1972年錄影選集」的錄影帶以及13部錄影短片保留下來。
其中一部我們看到的是史托希勒踏著響亮的步伐，穿過一個黑暗的大廳。只有一盞因走步而晃動的手電筒燈光，照明這個場景。走到大廳的盡頭後，他轉過身，走回到攝影機前。在手電筒的燈光中，他的臉變得越來越清晰，到最後他看起來像是被吸進了攝影機。

Wolfgang Stoerchle (1944–1976), who emigrated as a 16-year-old with his parents to North America, is hardly known in Europe, but in the 1970s he was one of the most important pioneers of video in the USA. Only a single tape with the title Selected Videos 1970–1972 remains, containing thirteen short pieces of work.
One of these shows Stoerchle traversing a dark hall, his steps echoing. The scene is lit only by the light of a torch swinging with his steps. Upon reaching the other side of the hall, he turns around and walks back towards the camera. His face becomes more and more visible in the torch light, finally appearing to be actually sucked into the camera.
