This edition was created by Jeremy Blake in honor of his 2003 collaboration with Creative Time. Winchester Redux can be described as a condensed version of Blake's longer work The Winchester Trilogy. The Winchester Trilogy is rooted in the architecture and mythology of the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, California, an extravagent mansion full of strange Victorian craftsmanship and mazes built by eccentric firearms heiress, Sara Winchester. Blending the legend of the mansion (the widow believed that her home was haunted by victims of Winchester firearms), historic 16-millimeter photographs, and the artist's florid ink drawings and animated imagery, Blake's Winchester Trilogy is a dreamlike experience drenched in pathos.Read Less

Jeremy Blake was an American digital artist and painter known for producing wildly colorful short films with figurative images blending into the abstract. Among his many projects, he designed digital animation for the film Punch-Drunk Love, and for Beck's song Round the Bend, he created a luminescent video featuring fluorescent lines fused with photography and drawings of flowers. His work was selected for the Whitney Biennial in 2000, 2002, and 2004, and he is best known for his series inspired by the Winchester Mystery House in California.
In 2007, Blake committed suicide one week after the suicide of his girlfriend, filmmaker Theresa Duncan.Read Less
