Hubbard, Birchler/ No Room to Answer

This catalog features the work of the Swiss/American artist duo Teresa Hubbard (born 1965 in Dublin, Ireland) and Alexander Birchler (born 1962 in Baden, Switzerland) who live and work in Austin, Texas. In a career of more than fifteen years, they have become known for their picturesque, color-saturated photographic series and their deliberately slow-paced video installations, which feature slow pan shots, endless loops, and puzzling plot lines. Starting with their early staged photographs, No Room to Answer presents key works from 1991 to 2008. Their most recent video, Grand Paris Texas, 2008, which debuts with this exhibition, was commissioned by the Modern Art Museum and will become part of the Museum's permanent collection.
