Larry Miller: The Carrot Piece 30 Years Later
Abstract
Description
Leslie Johnson (Producer, Director, Camera, Writer) Jonathan Persson (editor)
What began as a more general documentary of Larry Miller's art practice became focussed on the matters at hand in January 2011: turning ordinary carrots into an art object and the complexities of making and exhibition art. Larry Miller, associated with New York Fluxus artists, was asked to recreate his performative carrots sculpture for the prestigious David Zwirner Gallery January 2011 exhibition "Greene Street: THe Early Years (1970-74)". Miller reflects on the early production for the Greene Street gallery--serious and humorous aspects of the work and the process.
