Ant Farm (group)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ant Farm was a group of architects who produced experimental works on the "fringe of architecture" during the period 1968-1978. They documented their work with video, and were influential early video artists. The group's works include:
- Media Burn (1975). In which a glorified cadillac was driven through a wall of burning televisions. This piece plays with the notion of a pseudo-event.
- Cadillac Ranch, in which several cadillac automobiles were half-buried off of Interstate 40 near Amarillo, Texas.
- House of the Century (with Texas and New Mexico architect Richard Jost)
- Inflatocookbook
- The Eternal Frame (1975), a collaboration with T.R. Uthco in which actors reenacted the John F. Kennedy Assassination in Dealey Plaza and documented it on video.
- Citizen's Time Capsule (1975) at Artpark, Lewiston, N.Y.
- The exhibition, Ant Farm 1968-1978, was mounted by the Berkeley Art Museum in 2004 and toured to six other museums.
