Bobby Baker
Bobby Baker's Daily Life Limited
Bobby Baker trained as a painter but soon found it hard to express her ideas in paint alone and turned instead tosugar and cake as more expressive media. She found that the best way of presenting these edible works of art tothe public was through performance. Celebrating Daily Life, she's danced with meringue ladies, recreated the history of modern painting in food, drawn on her experience as a mother and shopped herself into a state of beatitude.

Banksy
from the Guardian Israel describes it as a vital security barrier, while the UN says it's illegal. But as far as the guerrilla graffiti artist Banksy is concerned, the 425-mile long barrier that separates Israel from the Palestinian territories is a vast concrete canvas too tempting to resist.

Interview with Jonathan Bepler. Jonathan Bepler composed the musical score for Mathew Barney's film 'Cremaster 2'. from eyestorm
InterviewInterview by Jonathan Jones
CREMASTER 3 (2002) is set in New York City and narrates the construction of the Chrysler Building, which is in itself a character - host to inner, antagonistic forces at play for access to the process of (spiritual) transcendence. These factions find form in the struggle between Hiram Abiff or the Architect (played by Richard Serra), and the Entered Apprentice (played by Barney), who are both working on the building.
Fluid Talk a conversation with Matthew Barney by Amy Jean Porter
This interview took place on the occasion of the public outdoor screening of Cremaster 2 in Dublin's Temple Bar in May 2000.

Karla Black
Karla Black?s work is encoded with subjective experience, juxtaposing sculpture that may at first glance resemble the residue of absent-minded play with harder supportive elements: a plinth, a frame, a stage. Vaseline, paint, plaster, dough or dirt may be carefully worked to formless beauty, paper wet and softened to become a delicate membrane. Black?s sculptures appear to evidence a physical act of material engagement, conscious of a parent generation of feminist performance and abstract expressionism. Elements of Black?s work appear to be in dialogue with each other, painterly matter may sit on glass or stained and varnished wood, seeming to assert the independence of work from the creative act, a series of sculptures may be placed or titled to assume a precarious collective status. Black?s work attempts to impart something that exists between the work and its encounters, quietly ushering in moments of recognition at the edge of our thoughts. Michelle Cotton, February 2005
