Larry Miller: The Carrot Piece 30 Years Later
Description of project
Video work October 2011 screened in lectures.
14.15 minutes in length
What began as a more general documentary of Larry Miller's art practice
became focussed on the matters at hand in January 2011: turning ordinary
carrots into an art object and the complexities of making and exhibition art.
Larry Miller, associated with New York Fluxus artists, was asked to recreate
his performative carrots sculpture for the prestigious David Zwirner Gallery
January 2011 exhibition "Greene Street: The Early Years (1970-74)".
Miller reflects on the early production for the Greene Street gallery - serious
and humorous aspects of the work and the process
