چکیده
based artists Lyn Blumenthal and Kate Horsfield began videotaping informal interviews with women artists. In the years that followed, as both Blumenthal and Horsfield completed MFA degrees at the School of the Art Institute and established the Video Data Bank (VDB) there in 1976, the two continued to collaboratively videotape interviews, formalizing the interview series under the name On Art and Artists (OAA). By 1982, when New Examiner writer Hedy Weiss reviewed the holdings of the VDB, she described the OAA collection as the very “heart” of the archive.1 Today, among the VDB’s extensive collection of historical box set compilations and new video art, On Art and Artists continues on as the major legacy forged by its two co-founders. Comprised of over 400 videotaped interviews and artist-made video portraits, featuring a range of internationally renowned artists, critics, architects, theorists, and art collectors, the OAA collection persists as one of the most unassuming yet vast archives of non-print artist dialogues in existence today.2
