While we saw only a few video installations at Art Basel there were many at Documenta. This video was installed on the second floor of the Museum Fridericianum. Here is a portion of the audience. The video is to the right in the niche. While we were watching, someone came up to Jim and asked to interview him. Supposedly this person is making a video of people filming people watching a video. Many layers of things. For the most part, I found the videos not engaging. although this video was shown in a room that was well lit and had chairs, many were in very dark spaces. It was quite disconcerting going into the space and not knowing if you were watching a narrative or what.
