$41.85
The past three decades have seen the rapid and vibrant growth of video art in Britain, but there has been little detailed analysis or critical recognition of this work. “Diverse Practices” attempts to redress this imbalance by bringing together a collection of essays which discuss various aspects of British video art within a range of frameworks – historical, theoretical, critical and chronological. “Diverse Practices” contains newly commissioned essays dealing with topics such as television interventions, video installation, feminist video work, video art criticism and computer animation. Previously published pieces addressing Scratch Video and artists working within the broadcast environment are also included in this book.
