Loading...
Uploaded by art21org on Feb 20, 2009
Episode #051: Artist Oliver Herring discusses what he perceives as generational shifts in our relationship to the camera, mortality, and legacy, accompanied by scenes from his five channel video installation "Little Dances of Misfortunes" (2001) — created after 9/11 — which depicts amateur dancers illuminated by phosphorescent body paint. "Little Dances of Misfortunes" is currently on view (through June 14, 2009) at the The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College as part of Oliver Herrings 15-year career survey "Me Us Them".

This guys work is amazing, the comment he made on Facilitating for the, lets say actors, they have their own voice, their own motives and aesthetic. It reminds me of Vic Muniz, if you haven't seen "Wasteland" think of how Oliver Approaches strangers, how they then approach him later no longer strangers.
