Janet Cardiff : A Survey of Works...

Supplemented by an interview with the artist, Christov-Bakargiev’s essay touches on many aspects of Cardiff’s œuvre and argues that the intimacy of her work leads to a blurring of self and other. Most of the works in the exhibition are represented with images, scripts, artist’s comments and short texts or excerpts of critical commentary from the selected bibliography. The catalogue closes with a comprehensive chronology of Cardiff’s career and an anthology of critical writing. List of works. Bibl. 5 p. 170 bibl. ref.
