More about the book
For over five decades ? from her groundbreaking anti-Vietnam war film Viet-Flakes (1965), featured in the 1967 performance Snows, to her current work on the ongoing conflict in Syria ? Carolee Schneemann?s art has unwaveringly borne witness to the realities of war and suffering. 0Schneemann?s identity as a painter, skillfully working in three-dimensional time and space, is foregrounded in the potent materiality and richness of visual metaphor throughout the works in this exhibition. In the dust paintings, layers of ash thrown and spilled onto thick paper construct a tactile surface, from which emerge mysterious embedded images and objects: defunct computer chip boards, representing lost civilisations; shards of glass; occasional photographs representing the landscapes of war-torn Lebanon.00Exhibition: Hale Gallery, London, UK (20.05.?24.06.2017).
