During the highly redundant orientation session for university TA’s, i passed some time reading C Magazine at the back of the room. I was trying to be discrete, but I came across this review that made me laugh out loud:
“At turns haunting and hilarious, Zin Taylor’s recent exhibition The Bakery of Blok explores the production and promotion of a television series about making bread in an abandoned bakery. The installation consists of single-channel video showing several “pilot” episodes, photographs of the starring actors and a series of baking tools displayed on three plinths…The video, Eight Pilot Episodes for The Bakery of Blok, however, features eight remarkably unmarketable characters: all are blocks of wood, which the artist “cast” instead of human actors.”
