Description

Canadian artist duo of Janet Cardiff & Georges Bures Miller scores great international successes with sound installations and sound-images. Over a period of years, Ingvild Goetz has incorporated an entire series of works by Cardiff ( 1957 in Ontario) and Miller ( 1960 in Alberta) into her collection. This publication is the first to show them all together, and elucidate the details of their creation and references, while also providing transparency to their meaning in the couple s artistic oeuvre. A particular focus is on the major significance of sound, as well as the special way that Cardiff & Miller deal with this very important yet usually only subliminally perceived level of today s media art.
