Text by Oliver Husain, Emelie Chhangur, Ian White, Chi-hui Yang.
A filmmaker and installation artist based in Toronto, Oliver Husain has called his pieces “attractive traps,” for the way in which they offer up an initial interpretation to the viewer which is eventually revealed to have been misleading. In a similar vein, Husain has inserted visual interruptions that interfere with the essays in this, his first monograph.
Featured image, a production still depicting Irmhild Gumm and Dirk Durchgraf in Husain's 2002 film, Q, is reproduced from Spoiler Alert.
