»Attributing Value (Refractions)« is an ongoing video series documenting various artist’s works. The works are environmentalized and refracted through the structural data of artist Damon Zucconi himself. Sofar completed are Bruce Nauman: 100 Live, 100 Die; Carsten Nicolai: Syn_Chron; Pierre Huyghe: L’Expedition scintillante; Richard Serra: Torqued Ellipse VI; 0100101110101101.org: jodi.org “%20Transfer”.

»Zenith Alignments«. Using star tracking software, minor zenith alignments with celestial bodies were found to occur at multiple intervals throughout the course of the day over various locations. These precise locations were located via GPS. 3-point areas were located at sites of the zenith alignments. These areas were highlighted and clearings were made to coincide with the alignments. So at the moment of the alignment Damon Zucconi would be exposing the ground and aligning himself with the line that extends to the star. These specific alignments were unique to these specific locations, occurring once an annual cycle. This could largely be seen as the process of integrating himself with 90 degree angles, in turn, demarcating larger phenomenological alignments and relations: “the body mapped onto the land onto the heavens above.”

»’At’ Asserting its Object Status«. Found sculpture.

»2d Orthogonal Line Drawing«. Drawing with laser and mirrors. All projects by Damon Zucconi.

»The constellation of candles in the field corresponding to the constellation of the stars in the sky«, 2004 by IRWIN, is a photo reconstruction of the group OHO action »The constellation of candles in the field corresponding to the constellation of the stars in the sky« from 1970.

Other reproductions of OHO actions by IRWIN.

»IRWIN with Marina Abramovic.« A collective of five Slovene artists IRWIN, was founded 1983 and since has been a dynamic force in contemporary Eastern European art. They describe their own work as retro-avant garde and are emphatic about their work being collective rather than individual. The group also co-founded the wider cultural collective Neue Slowenische Kunst.
