'Motion Study, After Leni Riefenstahl' deals with the Nazi regime's orientation towards the high-classical, Greek sculpture for propaganda purposes, in the specific case of German film director and photographer Leni Riefenstahl (1902-2003).
The three-part installation (b&w print, marble and ython on steel pedestal, tape on window-glass) presents itself in three successive layers, based on the discus thrower of Myron and it's photographic reproduction by Leni Riefenstahl (1936)
Thus the greek sculpture as such, as well as the monumental portrayel of greek sculpture in Riefenstahl's 1936 work "Beauty of the Olympic Battle" is broken down into it's essential parts: the human body, material/ medium of representation, and body movement.
