“Mary Reid Kelley and Patrick Kelley are celebrated for their visually arresting video works, full of humorous wordplay and incisive critique, utilising a distinctive black-and-white palette and rhyming verse. This expansive, fully illustrated catalogue is the artists’ first comprehensive monograph. It examines video works from throughout the artist’s careers, as well as the costume design, set design and writing that make their works both indelible and groundbreaking. Their recent two-year residency at the Fabric Workshop and Museum culminated in two new film works — ‘Blood Moon’ and ‘I’m Jackson Pollock’. These films explore the mechanics of power and its fallibility, and were presented inside an installation of sculpture and drawings.” (publisher’s blurb)
