Reynold Reynolds was born in Alaska in 1966. In 2004, he was invited by The American Academy in Berlin and was given a studio in the Künstlerhaus Bethanien. In 2007, he received a German grant for the development of two projects. Most recently, his work was awarded at the Transmediale (Berlin) and the European Media Art Festival (Osnabrück).
From November 2009 through to January 2010, Reynolds was an artist-in-residence at Impakt. During his residency, Reynolds worked on his first feature film, The Ultraviolet Catastrophe. In this Impakt Event, some material from this film will be premiered. In addition, Reynolds will show the results of a workshop given during his stay. Moreover, Reynolds’ new film Six Easy Pieces (work in progress), Secret Life and two films he selected by Stan Brakhage and The Brothers Quay will be screened at this event.
