HF, RG: (Harun Farocki, Rodney Graham)

How does one deal with the current times? Harun Farocki and Rodney Graham provide an answer to this question through their endless invention of new dispositifs. In this sense, as this catalogue demonstrates, both artists practices share concerns about medium, history, self-representation along with questioning the place and role of the artist. Published to accompany the exhibition HF I RG, presented at the Jeu de Paume, Paris, the book through photographs, texts and images explores four recurring concepts found in their work: the Archive, the Non-Verbal, the Machine, and, Montage.
