Ori Gersht’s Falling Bird

Ori Gersht’s photos and videos startle, seduce, and sometimes explode. Here, see what looks like an 18th-century painting of a dead pheasant. Linger a moment and the “painting” starts to move.

See the full video on view in “Ori Gersht: History Repeating” at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, August 28, 2012- January 6, 2013.
