Gary Hill
Gary Hill is a video artist that is recognized for incorporating text into his videos. His videos offer a bizarre form of art in my opinion. Especially his piece called Happenstance (part on of many parts). This video has text integrated into the video and there is also a voice in the background throughout the entire video. The integration of text, video, music, and the voice forms together into something that to me seems more like a poem. The reason i get the impression of it being like a poem is because it repeats its self a lot of times saying the same thing in different ways. The reason why i think this piece is really interesting is because the text isnt just there placed and then taken off. The text actually has a reason in the video and is part of the video and takes different shapes and forms with, or against the beat of the music. This is a really interesting artist with a lot of great pieces.
