REVIEWS
Don’t be fooled by the straightforward title of the lively new book “Video/Art: The First Fifty Years.” A better description of Barbara London’s indispensable and enticingly personal history arrives two pages in, when she writes, “This book describes the madcap trajectory of a pliable medium.” Few guides are more qualified to lead readers through the rapid rise of the once renegade art form. - New Yorker.
