John Wood and Paul Harrison: Obstacle Course and Other Works
Editorial Reviews Book Description Since they began collaborating in 1993, John Wood and Paul Harrison have accumulated a series of playful and beguiling video works which are distinguished as much by their droll sense of humor as their unerring economy of execution. Played out against a minimalist, monochrome backdrop, or within the sealed-off space of the monitor itself, each of the works involves the presence of one of the artists, either as the butt of an extended sight-gag or as the trigger for a spiralling, visually surprising conceit. This publication, which features an essay by Charles Esche, documents Wood and Harrison's work to date, including single-screen works and installations. --This text refers to the Paperback edition. About the Author Charles Esche runs the Modern Institute in Glasgow, is joint editor of After All magazine and is curating the Tate Gallery Trienniele. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
