Bill viola going forth: Installations by Bill Viola - Softcover

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 travelling exhibition organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art - this is a mesmerizing volume.
