Pipilotti Rist

Pipilotti Rist works primarily with projection and installation producing vibrant video collage work. The work called "Sleep Room" above, involved 360 degree projections creating a cosmic space of moving stars interjected with dismembered body parts floating around the space whilst Rist ruminates about the body and identity.

Celeste Boursier Mougenot


Interview


Celeste Boursier Mougenot has been at the active in exploring sound as an art form. Mougenot's work involves the creation of sound using traditional and none traditional instruments in the form of installations. The sound created in the installations has dry humour of much conceptual art, and significantly involves the element of chance in creating the sound.

Tony Oursler


















Tony Ousler produces uncanny intense artworks that involve projection onto objects. His works form disjointed narratives through disturbed characters as he examines the psyche.

For ArtAngel he produced a new work in an outdoors public space in Manchester. This is the first time I have seen his work outside of the gallery setting. The projections where onto the trees of Whitworth Park and dry ice. This along with the readings from the projected characters that were layered transformed the park into a midsummer dreamlike place.

Lindsay Seers














Lindsay Seers makes work that combines installation and performance. She creates intense psychological unreliable narratives revisiting and reconstructing personal history and memory with historical research to explore perception and viewing politics.

Elizabeth Price













2013 Turner Prize Winner, Elizabeth Price's film "User Group Disco - The Museum of Objects" is a great work! It is a controlled film that ruminates on Capitalism and the economy of the object within consumer culture. The viewer is captivated by the film that flickers between being humorous and sinister. The editing creates rhythms of pace that vary from the intense to calm and matched by a diverse soundtrack from abstract sound to pop music. This gives film the power that it has along with the text and image working together playfully. Amazing! It reminded me of the works of Barbara Kruger and Jenny Holzer reconstituted in the form of film but with a much more playfully cynicism. This film can be ordered for loan from the Lux.
