Louisiana Contemporary

Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller have gained international recognition for their audio and video "Walks," in which visitors follow the artist's directions through a site while listening to a CD walkman. As the walk progresses through real time and space, the participant will hear voices, music, footsteps and other sounds that create a fictional sound track to the journey. Cardiff's work challenges cinematic conventions and collapses the distinctions between reality, sensation and imagination. This audio CD and 32-page booklet accompany the Cardiff and Bures Miller exhibition mounted by Denmark's Louisiana Museum, for which the artists created "Louisiana Walk" and at which Cardiff and Miller's seminal "Berlin Files" from 2003 was shown.Cardiff, Janet is the author of 'Louisiana Contemporary ', published 2006 under ISBN 9788791607325 and ISBN 8791607329.
