The most complete and up-to-date overview available of an art form
born some forty years ago and now ubiquitous internationally.
Video art has moved from brief showings on tiny screens in
alternative art spaces to dominance in international exhibitions
and artistic events, in which vast video installations sometimes
occupy factory-sized buildings or video projections take over the
walls of an entire city block. It embraces all the significant art
ideas and forms of recent times--from Abstract, Conceptual,
Minimal, Performance, and Pop to photography and film.
Abundantly illustrated with frames and sequences, this updated
edition offers a history of the medium from its early
practitioners, such as Bruce Nauman and Vito Acconci, who used the
video camera as an extension of their own bodies, through the vast
array of conceptual, political, personal, and lyrical installations
of the 1980s and 1990s by Gary Hill, Bill Viola, Inigo
Manglano-Ovalle, Mary Lucier, Michal Rovner, and others up to the
present day.
A new chapter, "Video Ascending," explores the recent use of video
in what might be called "the new cinematics"--not only multi-screen
installations mixing sound and visuals but also immersive
environments, including Virtual Reality, and alternative sculpture
that combines solid forms with moving images. 383 illustrations,
296 in color.
