Description
Includes "Arnold and Ahneva" from "One-on-One" by video artist, Wendy Clark. "One on One" (1991) is a series of video dialogues between prisoners at the California Institution for Men in Chino and members of the Crenshaw business community and the Church in Ocean Park in Santa Monica. They were taped by Clarke throughout 1991. The 15 prisoners who volunteered were all nearing release and were in a video class taught by Clarke at Chino, where she was an artist-in-residence. Clarke had each inmate make an introductory tape that she then showed to the non-prisoners she had recruited, letting the outsiders choose the prisoner with whom they wanted to communicate. Once the pairings had been made, Clarke carried tapes back and forth, getting each one's video response to the others. Clarke did place a restriction on the video partners, forbidding them to have contact beyond the tapes.
