The third in our series of SOUNDWORKS online touring talks, artist Helen Brown returns to the original source of inspiration for SOUNDWORKS contributors, Bruce Nauman's sound work Days. In this response she cuts up of YouTube videos captured by visitors to Days in different galleries around the world. Text overlays the videos, lifted from edited reviews of the exhibition. http://blog.ica.org.uk/touring-talks-helen-brown http://www.ica.org.uk/projects/soundworks/#track/45288386 Helen Brown's work explores methods of presentation, reception and interpretation of artworks. Looking at aspects of communication, perception and audience engagement, recent work has explored the limitations of mass communication systems when used as platforms for dissemination and interpretation by galleries and as tools of critique by art critics and journalists.
