Art of Projection, edited by Stan Douglas and Christopher Eamon.
Art of Projection investigates the historical and contemporary use of projected images in art, from the screen to the exhibition space and back again. Ten essays, written by leading art historians and critics, including Stan Douglas, Mieke Bal and Beatriz Columina, address precedents for the projection of images in space, including nineteenth-century magic lantern shows and the novel spatial/temporal representations pioneered by Surrealist and experimental filmmakers during the early and mid-twentieth century.

Erwin Wurm is one of my favorite contemporary artists. He often uses people and clothing in his work, either as models for photographs or molds for sculptures. His work is often funny, silly, while at the same time awkward and unsettling. This one’s called Gulp.
