Описание:

With the discovery of a new vendor at the yearly Clairemont Bazaar, Isobel's life is about to change. The purchase of an antique Royal typewriter for her own writing projects will turn out to be the answer to her prayers when it starts protecting her from the hands of her abusive husband. At first, she uses the unexplainable phenomenon as an advantage, but; she will soon find out the machine has an agenda of its own as its punishments start to harm innocent people.

With help from Clara, a young girl who claims to have been paralyzed by the machine, Isobel finds herself in a battle of wills between herself and the typewriter in which there is no escape until the monster forces her into a face-off where the only way to win is death or destruction.

Описание:

An examination of how artists have combined performance and moving image for decades, anticipating our changing relation to images in the internet era.

In Performing Image, Isobel Harbison examines how artists have combined performance and moving image in their work since the 1960s, and how this work anticipates our changing relations to images since the advent of smart phones and the spread of online prosumerism. Over this period, artists have used a variety of DIY modes of self-imaging and circulation--from home video to social media--suggesting how and why Western subjects might seek alternative platforms for self-expression and self-representation. In the course of her argument, Harbison offers close analyses of works by such artists as Robert Rauschenberg, Yvonne Rainer, Mark Leckey, Wu Tsang, and Martine Syms.

Harbison argues that while we produce images, images also produce us--those that we take and share, those that we see and assimilate through mass media and social media, those that we encounter in museums and galleries. Although all the artists she examines express their relation to images uniquely, they also offer a vantage point on today's productive-consumptive image circuits in which billions of us are caught. This unregulated, all-encompassing image performativity, Harbison writes, puts us to work, for free, in the service of global corporate expansion. Harbison offers a three-part interpretive framework for understanding this new proximity to images as it is negotiated by these artworks, a detailed outline of a set of connected practices--and a declaration of the value of art in an economy of attention and a crisis of representation.
