VOOM HD Networks, the pioneer in HD television, and Robert Wilson, one of the world's masters of drama and light, come together to create a groundbreaking video series of high-definition portraits for the 21st century. Robert Wilson, one of the most exciting and influential innovators in theater, art and design, has been working with VOOM HD Networks as an Artist-in-Residence to create the VOOM PORTRAITS. These stunning works of art, so far numbering over thirty, have captured superstars and royalty, ordinary people and extraordinary animals, in a series of high-definition video portraits.
Each VOOM PORTRAIT is a set piece developed by Wilson in collaboration with his subjects, and draws inspiration from movies, art, history and more. Presented in infinite loops, the VOOM PORTRAITS seem at first glance to be traditional still portraits. But then, the sitters perform a simple acta small movement, a blink, a tap of the footand the experience of watching them changes entirely.
