Description:

Structured in four parts, Jochen Gerz’s single-channel video production presents banal images—sharpening a pencil, a refrigerator, a man in his car, and a poster of a husky—juxtaposed with narration that offers meta-musings on life, travel, and artistic production. 

Video documentation available upon request.
