Reviews for Corpus Callosum
Snow has drafted a thought-provoking yet engaging video essay on the instability of images.
This 90-minute postmodern voyage was more diverting and thought-provoking than I'd expected it to be.
It has the air of a surprisingly juvenile lark, a pop-influenced prank whose charms are immediately apparent and wear thin with repetition.
The wanton slipperiness of *Corpus and its amiable jerking and reshaping of physical time and space would make it a great piece to watch with kids and use to introduce video as art.
Corpus Collosum -- while undeniably interesting -- wore out its welcome well before the end credits rolled about 45 minutes in.
A bonanza of wacky sight gags, outlandish color schemes, and corny visual puns that can be appreciated equally as an abstract Frank Tashlin comedy and as a playful recapitulation of the artist's career.
Sometimes feels uncomfortably like a 93-minute Photoshop demonstration.
