Since Cornford & Cross started working together in 1987, they have staged encounters, interventions and installations in sites across the UK, as well as in the United States, Sweden, Norway and Thailand. Where is the Work? is the first comprehensive survey of their practice to date. Their provocative, controversial pieces, always engaging with risk and uncertainty, are often ephemeral; thus, the photographic record, like the response of the viewer, becomes an essential part of the work itself. This book, then, constitutes an important element of their ongoing investigation into the relationship between presentation and representation. In addition to a series of illustrations showing the breadth and diversity of Cornford & Cross's oeuvre, Where is the Work? reprints several of the artists' writings, providing an invaluable insight into the theoretical foundations of their work.
