Inside Outside

Cross, David and Cornford, Matthew (2003) Inside Outside. Third Text, 18 (6). pp. 657-665. ISSN 09528822

Type of Research: Article
Creators: Cross, David and Cornford, Matthew
Description:

Writing about their art practice and nature of collaboration in relation to the institution, Cornford & Cross questioned the privileging of the art object, and the role of artists primarily as being either to produce such objects for consumption, or to facilitate community involvement in urban regeneration. Cornford & Cross do produce objects, installations and images, and they do engage in a range of interactions with various organizations and groups. However, the distinguishing aspect of their practice is ‘Action Research’, a process of creative and critical collaboration which may transform social relations. In order to emphasise the differences in their opinion and the process of working through ideas, Cornford & Cross wrote the chapter as a dialogue in response to the editor’s original invitation and question.
