Thursday 26 October 2006, 18.30–20.00

Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller have forged a multimedia practice that international critics have identified as one of the most significant breakthroughs in Conceptual art in the past decade. They are renowned for their use of sound and moving image and for experiences which combine film and video with stunning audio tracks. These elements have become the trademark of their narrative, audio-driven walks through museums and urban landscapes.

For the 2001 Venice Biennale, Cardiff and Miller created an international stir with The Paradise Institute, a 13-minute digital video. Tonight they present a lecture on their work and discuss how research and obsessions migrate from one work to another.

This talk is the keynote lecture of the symposium Encounter, Curiosity and Method: The Making of Practice, which takes place on Friday 27 October 2006. Tickets for this talk are also valid for admission to the symposium and cannot be booked separately.
