Nancy Buchanan:"These Creatures" (1979).

Nancy Buchanan (USA *1946)
"With Love from A to B" is a collaborative work with the equally renowned
artist Barbara T. Smith, in which the two pairs of hands act out a love relationship
from first introduction to painful ending.
"These Creatures" examines gender clichés and gender-specific
behaviour. The piece, for which Buchanan made use of new technologies and media
like the TV commercial and CCTV, takes the form of an "anti-commercial" about
the representation of women in advertising.
Nancy Buchanan lives and works in Los Angeles. Since the 1970s, she has
mostly been making video works in the context of performance art, computer
animation and social documentary. Her black humour and social criticism are
often aimed at the world of the media.
