Guy Oliver
You Know Nothing of My Work (2020)

We’re delighted to be presenting Guy Oliver’s 2020 FVU-commissioned video You Know Nothing of My Work on FVU Watch. Taking its title from one of Woody Allen’s most famous films, the work proceeds from the premise that we now know more than enough about the crimes and misdemeanours of some of the world’s most prominent cultural icons that any lingering affection anyone might still have for their art will likely be deeply problematic, to say the least.

Originally commissioned in response to the film, read artist and performer Louise Ashcroft's text pondering the conflicting voices in her head as she watched on her journey to Amsterdam — click here. An audio recording is also available for this text.

Commissioned for the Jerwood/FVU Awards 2020: Hindsight, a collaboration between Jerwood Arts and Film and Video Umbrella.
