Artist Research 2

Jennifer and Kevin McCoy
I chose to do my artist research on Jennifer and Kevin McCoy because ever since we went over them briefly in class one day, I thought that their work and the collaboration on their work was very interesting. They explore the concept of different filmmaking genres, language, and sculpture. A lot of the work produces imagery that challenge people to question what they see and a lot of their work is from the perspective of the camera.

The piece of work I chose to focus on for the artist research is called "Broker". This was filmed on the seventy seventh floor of one the Trump towers and was also projected onto different screens in the building. This project was a commentary on the luxury's of the wealthy and the successful. The video that comes with the installation is very robotic and gives an uneasy feeling about the futuristic aspect of the piece.
