Part of the acclaimed Documents of Contemporary Art series of anthologies which collect writing on major themes and ideas in contemporary art. 

'Moving Image is a key text for comprehending the deep interconnection of the moving image and the worlds of exhibition in the 21st century.'


  -Hans Ulrich Obrist, Co-director of Exhibitions
and Programmes and Director of International

 This anthology examines the rising phenomenon of moving image practice in recent art and theory, tracing its genealogies in experimental cinema and video, body art, performance, site-specific art and installation from the 1960s onwards. Contextualizing new developments made possible by advances in digital and networked technology, it locates contemporary art centred on the moving image within a global framework.

Ramani, Pipilotti Rist, Ben Rivers, Ryan Trecartin, Trinh T. Minh-ha, and Bill Viola. 

Writers include Erika Balsom, Robert Bird, Claire Bishop, Christa Blϋmlinger, Jonathan Crary, T.J. Demos, Jean Fisher, Andrew Grossman, Félix Guattari, Shanay Jhaveri, Sven Lϋtticken, Francesco Manacorda, H.G. Masters, Andrew V. Uroskie, Ian White, Maxa Zoller, and Thomas Zummer.

Packaging is a mess and product requires force to put parts together
Color: Black
Packaging is awful, makes a complete mess. The product itself is okay, the little rods that come with it don't slide in easily and force you to scrape the metal with them when you install it , not the greatest design. Instructions also are not the best. Also, why are the holes to hang the shelf at the bottom?? Doesn't make much sense

Do not buy. Object is falsely advertised bigger than it is.
Color: Rustic Brown + Black
Deserves zero stars. Bought for my kid's birthday to mount PS5 on the wall like in the picture of the product. False advertising. Deception.
