MKVH

Más información sobre el libro

In March 2006 Milton Keynes Gallery commissioned MKHV (Milton Keynes Vertical Horizontal) by the artis Hayley Newman. The conceptual premise of the project - to drive a bus of volunteer passengers around Milton Keynes' notorious grid system until it ran out of diesel - was especially apt for a city that grew out of an American mdoel of a car-dependent culture. As ever in Newman's projects, her often ironic, provocative and surreal propositions find meaning when they brush up against the everyday lives and experiences of the participants and audiences they engage. This publication is more than simply a document of the project, it functions as a touching and humorous score to a road movie of an altogether different order.
