Description
John Wood and Paul Harrison are known for their playful and beguiling video works, which showcase their economy of execution and sense of humour. This publication documents their work to date, featuring an essay by Charles Esche.
The videos often feature one of the artists as the subject or trigger for a visually surprising conceit, played out against a minimalist monochrome backdrop or within the sealed-off space of the monitor itself.
With this book, you can explore their work in detail, including single-screen works and installations. The publication provides a comprehensive overview of Wood and Harrison's collaboration since 1993.
