This is the first ever comprehensive monograph of Lucy Gunning's work 1993–2006. Beautifully illustrated, with essays by three renowned writers, it focuses on themes and concerns of this artist: behaviour and psychological space, performativity, the voice, and relationships between the mediums of film and video, architecture, performance and sculpture.
