TV + VT Werke 1969-1972 (1972)

“The video compilation TV & VT WORKS consists of short performances that deal with the relationship between reality and the film/TV camera while also addressing how television has changed our perspectives on reality. Several ‘Tele Actions’ and ‘TV Death’ moments, as the artist calls them, show actions that define the ontology of an artwork within a televised setting. The common element linking the individual segments consists in fake news reports from Austrian television, which is where the work was ultimately broadcast.” –KONTAKT COLLECTION
