Abstract: | John Wood and Paul Harrison have worked together for thirty years making videos in which they are the protagonists of ironic, paradoxical actions of a powerful visual impact. The film showcases the backstage of their works and has been defined by the artists themselves as “a documentary on how to work, on growing old, making mistakes, how to occasionally do the right things and on the everyday things in life”. |
