    • The Real Experiment November 4, 2009
      Allan Kaprow again. One characteristic of the lifelike art that was emerging in the sixties: “Various performative modes became the effective way to deal with this shift to the actual environment. Performing was doing something, not acting in theater – moving furniture, for example, just to do it, or because you were changing apartments.” T […]

    • DO SOMETHING DONE October 31, 2009
      After some eleventh hour InDesign frantickity the book I’ve been making is finished. As I’ve been working on it a couple of things have been running through my mind. The Envelope Constructions video I made in 2006 has the same feeling of purposeful inconclusiveness – of working intentionally towards an end point which is in no [...]

    • STUDIO AND CUBE October 24, 2009
      This is our new home. In a complete change of everything, this home consists of a white studio. It means rather than making artwork in a domestic space as I have been for the past few years, I’ll be doing domestic things in an art-making space. It will be very good to see what becomes of [...]

    • DO SOMETHING October 15, 2009
      I found out this week that a book I’m making is going to be published by (un)limited store in December. The book will be launched in December at ArtistBook International at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and before that there’s lots of work to do. It’s a kind of instruction manual and I’m calling it [...]

Projecting Space at the Central Saint Martin’s MA Show

Posted on September 25, 2007 by Tamarin

As an artist a lot of my work involves video in one form or another, but the disjuncture between the space of the video and the space of the room it’s in never really satisfies me. And so it might be to bridge the gap between the stuff of the artwork and the stuff of [...]

Having trouble with durational film and video work

Posted on September 6, 2007 by Tamarin

We still don’t know how to present moving image artwork, but it’s not for want of trying. Almost a year ago I went to a memorably poor tank.tv screening at the Tate Modern called I Am Future Melancholic. I’ve just found the notes I made at the time, and scribbled in pencil on the programme [...]

Review: Global Cities

Posted on August 18, 2007 by Anton Viesel

Exhibition: Global Cities
Tate Modern, Turbine Hall
20 June – 27 August
It comes as a welcome surprise that a show as profoundly vacuous as Global Cities should expose its superficiality in various and complex ways.
Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall is undoubtedly a difficult space to fill sensibly with anything other than a giant turbine. Putting a [...]
