Book Description
Widely recognized as the leading video artist of our time, Bill Viola employs sophisticated state-of-the-art technologies to create installations that envelop the viewer in image and sound. In his newest and most evocative work— on display at the Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin and in this accompanying catalogue—an ordered sequence of allegorical fresco-like images immerse the viewer in a total aesthetic, sensory, and philosophical experience.
Including an interview with the artist—who represented the United States at the 1995 Venice Biennale and whose career was the subject of a major 1997 traveling exhibition organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art—this is a mesmerizing volume.
