The Music Video Art
Chris Cunningham, who is widely known for his innovative music videos, exhibited his work in Documenta - including his work with Bjork, who is married to American artist, Matthew Barney. Director Michel Gondry, famous for his music video work with Bjork and the White Stripes, is reported to be doing a media arts residency at MIT. The music video form has been keen to reflect the latest developments in technology and subculture through popular media distribution and recently has made the cross-over to the fine arts sector.
The New York Times article, I Screen, You Screen: The New Age of the Music Video, is an interesting read transversing both creative process and the business dynamics of the music video.
