Ellipsis
Chantal Akerman, Lili Dujourie, Francesca Woodman
Published by Konsthall Lund, Sweden; Museo Tamayo Arte Contemporáneo, Mexico & Dundee Contemporary Arts, UK; 2007, 132 pp. (b/w ill.), 15 × 21 cm, English
Price: €20

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Ellipsis, featuring Chantal Akerman, Lili Dujourie and Francesca Woodman, curated by Lynne Cooke, at Konsthall Lund, Sweden; Museo Tamayo Arte Contemporáneo, Mexico & Dundee Contemporary Arts, UK, between 2007–08.

“Although born ten years apart and in very different circumstances, the three artists featured in this exhibition each profited from the turn to still photography, and other lens-based technologies—film, slide projection and the newer medium of video that dominated vanguard art practice in the late 1960s. Taking themselves, their bodies and their immediate circumstances as their point of departure, during the 1970s all three made performative work for the camera. Tellingly, the sites they favoured were mostly their own studios or domestic interiors.”—Lynne Cooke
