Details
The work "This is a PHOTOGRAPH" shows Cooke exchanging Nancy Holt's facsimile with an almost identical copy. This action is documented with three posters and a video.
One of the posters shows the original work, facsimile by Nancy Holt. The second poster shows the "copy" made by Cooke with the adapted line "This is a PHOTOGRAPH". The third poster describes the action. The 1.5 minute video documents the exchange of the works in the exhibition space.
This project could be realized thanks to the kind support of the Badischer Kunstverein.
