An English Journey is a combined book and DVD project by the artist Andrew Cross. Published to coincide with his new video and photographic exhibition 3 hours from here it casts a typically adroit and observant eye over the changing face of the English landscape and road transport network. Following the route (from Southampton to the North West of England) followed by J.B. Priestley in his original 1930s English Journey, it closes in on that increasingly ubiquitous mainstay of the contemporary English road, the long-distance container lorry.
Featuring essays by the renowned social historian and geographer Doreen Massey, and by project curators Steven Bode and Bernadette Buckley, this beautifully designed small-format publication also incorporates extracts from Priestley's original text. The accompanying DVD includes a special interactive and extended version of Cross's video record of the journey, 3 hours from here.

Produced to coincide with a major new video and sound installation, Atlas, launching at Chisenhale Gallery in London in June 2004, this publication represents the first extensive overview of twenty years of Andrew Stones' video and mixed media work. Looking back over a prolific career that follows a line through the early days of UK video art to the artist's recent conceptual explorations of leading-edge science and technology, it showcases several new video and photographic pieces produced at restricted-access scientific institutions around the globe. Informed by three newly commissioned texts, and tracing a path through an impressive back-catalogue of visual and documentary material, this intelligently designed monographic publication draws out the depths and the subtleties of Stones' evocative and multifaceted practice.

Alex Farquharson, John Kelsey and Jeremy Millar. Collaborative text by Carey Young and Liam Gillick. Introduction by Steven Bode
|

ISBN 0 9538634 6 8
PRICE £9.95
The first publication devoted to the work of Carey Young, an emerging artist whose work provocatively and playfully questions familiar notions of art as a mode of resistance and critique in a world of dissolving boundaries, in which the borders between politics, culture and business seem to have disappeared. Having worked within business for several years, Young presents the role of the artist potentially to be that of an infiltrator within the inner world of the multinational, adopting its language, codes and tools, as well as its tactics of disappearance, in order to offer an insider's perspective on to the formation and control of mass culture.

'Childhood's End' documents the conception and execution of the film installation of the same name by artists Mathew Cornford and David Cross. With the assistance of a military fighter jet (to which a film camera was attached) piloted by a retired Air Vice-Marshal, Cornford & Cross produced a film of the jet describing an 'anarchy' symbol in the skies above Cranfield airbase in Bedfordshire. This large format publication, illustrated throughout with colour and black and white photographs, includes an extensive interview with the artists about the piece and its relation to their earlier projects.
