“The stereoscope is a device that makes images appear three-dimensional by presenting each eye a slightly different point of view of the same scene. In attempting to reconcile the difference, the viewer is tricked into seeing volume. In Stereoscope [the film], Kentridge employs a reversed maneuver, where the use of a split-screen device can be seen to dismember three-dimensional truth into two complementary but unsynchronized realities.”
- excerpt from 1998 MoMA press release “World premiere of new film animation by William Kentridge presented in Projects Series" at The Museum of Modern Art.
