Andrew Holmes: Big Pic Box
-
Texts by David Greene, Andrew Holmes
-
Big Pic Box contains 18 plates, each composed of nine Polaroid images that can be assembled in any arrangement to form a composite work, Nine Times, together with a booklet with colour illustrations of the work from which Nine Times evolved. The images were the most controversial of his work at the time of publication, in both form and content: unlikely combinations of fragments of contemporary living - urban waste, trucks, flowers, animals and images culled from the TV screen - arranged without distinction.
