Fotograf Magazine

Viktor Takáč is a rigorous analyst of the moving image. His video-films are based on randomly found places and bizarre situations, or, rather, the subjects of these are precisely planned and subsequently composed of the photographs or footage he takes. Takáč painstakingly analyzes the material he captures and then meticulously – frame by frame – assembles this into his screening neo-plasms. Akin to a detective on a quest for the primal cause of a turning point, he notes seemingly minor details such as stationary objects or beings, whose actions are at odds with the composition of the shot, whether for an extremely long or short interval of time.
