Tacita Dean (b. 1965) is an artist internationally known for her compelling work in film. She seeks connections--between history and the present, fact and fiction. Her starting point is typically a chance encounter or discovery. She pursues her investigation like a detective, piecing together evidence and presenting it in a loosely woven, often inconclusive narrative. This book includes an introduction to the artist and her work by Clarrie Wallis, followed by eight responses by writers from diverse backgrounds. The book also contains a full biography, exhibition history, and filmography.
