Vidicon Inscriptions (1976 Installation)
‘Over-lighting exceeds capacity for assimilation in a 1970s video camera and images are ‘burnt’ into the surface of its tube. Here a unique property is discovered where both the passage of time and trace of that continuum are registered as one. A section of the original tape version records the image of the artist with a camera (via a mirror) panning, by stages, across the screen. Before movement the lens is covered and re-exposed after the change, …

Dialogue For Four Players (1978)
‘Dialogue for four players is a video playback installation by Steve Partridge at the AIR Gallery during Mid-March. Four Monitors stand in a square facing the viewer in a darkened room: their own light is the only illumination. Each monitor is replaying a different tape; each showing the lower half of (the same?) woman’s face, thus each speaks its own contribution to the dialogue.
The Four tapes are fifteen minutes long, they are played simultaneously, …
Study in Blue (1979)
The installation was made possible by the ACGB and facilities, rigging, equipment and travel and subsistence by the Kitchen. The masters were transposed through a standards convertor to NTSC at a facilities house in New York with the advice and assistance of John Sanborn, a well known New York video artist who had been assistant to Nam June Paik, and whom the artist had met at the Biennalle de Paris in 1977. John had assisted Steve Partridge to shoot the Paris channel of “A Coincidence of Space” …
A Coincidence of Space (1977)
‘I was commissioned by the Paris Biennalle des Jeunes and the British Council to make an installation. They also chose “Stuart Marshall and many up-and-coming artists from Europe and the USA, including Marina Abramovic, and Laurie Anderson. I decided to make a work which used the rivers of London and Paris. Shooting on the Thames proved to be rather difficult as the Crown ‘owns’ the skyline of London! On the Seine a young artist from New York acted as my assistant – …

Disintegrating Forms
‘Breeze’ and ‘Disintegrating Forms’ were both designed as multi-screen installations. Breeze consists of four TV monitors placed side by side, showing four different shots of water, the camera being placed and allowed to run for ten minutes in each case. Tapes 2 and 3 are shown here. Close up shots of water appear to relate to the surface of the screen, giving the illusion of a TV set containing water. In 2, rapid movements of the water relates to the scan line. …
