I don’t think I can make tonight’s Nadia Hironaka talk on the “phil collins, assume freedom” exhibition. But I’d like to go, both because its Collins’ videos that are most interesting and because video artist Hironaka is so thoughtful (we’ve got lots of posts on her). I want to hear what she thinks about his work. The talk is at 6 p.m. at Temple Gallery (image, from Collins'”They Shoot Horses” video of Palestinian youths he invited to a dance marathon).
By the way, Collins was one four artists shortlisted for Deutsche Bank’s 2006 Photography Prize, worth £30,000. The award will be announced on 22 March 2006.
