Jack Goldstein's 1978 film 'The Jump' screens nightly in Times Square through August 31

Jack Goldstein's 1978 film The Jump, a three-minute rotoscope animation in red and gold, is being shown nightly from 11:57 PM to midnight in New York's Times Square until August 31, 2013. The presentation is part of Midnight Moment, an arts initiative that uses electronic signs and kiosks on 42nd Street to display works by contemporary artists. This digital remastering of the film appears simultaneously across multiple billboards, highlighting Goldstein's engagement with Hollywood's visual language and technology. The screening coincides with the retrospective JACK GOLDSTEIN x 10,0000 at The Jewish Museum, which runs through September 29, 2013. Goldstein, known for manipulating signs and colors in his films and paintings, finds a fitting venue in Times Square, an epicenter of visual consumption. The event invites viewers to consider whether the work disrupts or complements the spectacle.
