[ISEA2000] Curator Statement: John Greyson & Joe Laughlin – HERR

Curator Statement

VIDEO SELECTION BANFF CENTRE FOR THE ARTS

A bitingly funny dissection of gender conformity. Performed by four women dressed as men, the choreography is inspired by everyday male gestures and elaborated into an intricate spectacle of masculinity lurching out-of-control. These stereotypical and banal gestures are made breathtaking through synchronization, repetition, and split-second timing.
