    THE ARTIST’S VOICE SINCE 1981 BOMBSITE Peter Campus by John Hanhardt BOMB 68/Summer 1999, ART Peter Campus. Shadow Projection, 1974, video installation. Courtesy Paula Cooper Gallery. My visit with Peter Campus was partially motivated by my desire to see his new work, a set of videotapes entitled Video Ergo Sum that includes Dreams, Steps and Karneval und Jude. These new works proved to be an extraordinary extension of Peter’s earlier engagement with video and marked his renewed commitment to the medium. Along with Vito Acconci, Dara Birnbaum, Gary Hill, Joan Jonas, Bruce Nauman, Nam June Paik, Steina and Woody Vasulka, and Bill Viola, Peter is one of the central artists in the history of the transformation of video into an art form. He holds a distinctive place in contemporary American art through a body of work distinguished by its articulation of a sophisticated poetics of image making dialectically linked to an incisive and subtle exploration of the properties of different media—videotape, video installations, photography, photographic slide installations and digital photography. The video installations and videotapes he created between 1971 and 1978 considered the fashioning of the self through the artist’s and spectator’s relationship to image making. Campus’s investigations into the apparatus of the video system and the relationship of the 1 of 16 camera to the space it occupied were elaborated in a series of installations. In mem [1975], the artist turned the camera onto the body of the specator and then projected the resulting image at an angle onto the gallery wall.

This five-part exhibition series features selections from the List Center’s exhibition Video Trajectories (October 12-December 30, 2007) which was originally organized by MIT Professor Caroline A.

Barely edited, a characteristic Nauman tape from the late '60s shows the artist laconically following some absurd set of directions for an extended amount of time within the vague purview of a video camera mounted at a seemingly random angle in relation to the action. Slow Angle Walk is a classic of the genre, reflecting the artist's interest in Irish playwright Samuel Beckett, whose characters announce, "Let's go!" while the stage directions read, "No one moves."

Originally a sculptor, Hill began working with sound, text, and video in the early 1970’s and has produced a large body of both single-channel video works and mixed-media installations. His video, installation and performance work has been presented at museums and institutions throughout the world, including solo exhibitions at the Musée national d'art moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Guggenheim Museum SoHo, NY; Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Öffentliche Kunstsammlung, Basel; Museu d’Art Contemporani, Barcelona; and Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg, among others.

MacArthur Foundation “Genuis” Grant in 1998. Site Recite (a prologue) by Gary Hill Nothing seems to have ever been moved. There is something of every description which can only be a trap. Maybe it all moves proportionately cancelling out change and the estrangement of judgement. No, an other order pervades. It's happening all at once, I'm just a disturbance wrapped up in myself, a kind of ghost vampirically passing through the forest passing through the trees.

    ORPHEUS New modes of epistemic relationships in artistic research ORPHEUS Research leads to new insights rupturing the existent fabric of knowledge. Situated in the still evolving field of artistic research, this book investigates a fundamental quality of this process. Building on the lessons of deconstruction, artistic research invents new modes of epistemic relationships that include aesthetic dimensions. Under the heading transposition, seventeen artists, musicians, and theorists explain how one thing may turn into another in a spatio- temporal play of identity and difference that has the power to expand into the unknown. By connecting materially concrete positions in a way Transpositions familiar to artists, this book shows how moves can be made between established positions and completely new ground.
