89 Seconds at Alcázar is a single channel looped video inspired by Diego Velasquez' Las Meninas. Treating the scene in the painting as a film still, the Rufus Corporation invented the actions that come before and after the depicted moment as if it were a fleeting gesture that continues as part of the movement of daily life. The camera's 10 minute circumnavigation of the room has no clear beginning, middle or end and was shot as a single fluid choreography. Directed by Eve Sussman; Choreography by Claudia de Serpa Soares; Costumes by Karen Young; Sound by Jonathan Bepler. With Jeff Wood and Helen Picket as King Philip IV and Queen Mariana; and Walter Sipser as Diego Velasquez. For full credits see: collaborators
