Quotes:
In the 1980’s he introduced a TV set as a stand-up comic in performances at the ICA, and for the Ikon Gallery in Birmingham created Video Times (1984) in which the single image of the artist watching TV was deconstructed in a printed magazine, itself an elaborate pastiche of a popular TV guide.
