DescriptionEarly
adherents of video and computer imaging, the artistic duo MANUAL has charted
decades of brave experiments in media. In their composite computer-aided work,
the combination of text and stock photography with portraits of Houston gallery
owner Betty Moody and her then-assistant Lisa Barkley creates ambiguous
relationships that leave room for viewers to construct their own story.
ProvenanceClinton T. Willour, Houston; given to MFAH, 1995.
Exhibition History"40 Years of Discovery: Gifts of Clint Willour," Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, June 9–October 14, 2018.
