Chronology of Video Art in Italy (1952–1992), Laura Leuzzi and Valentino Catricalà
Laura Leuzzi is an art historian and curator whose research focuses on the relationship between words and image in visual art and new media. She was a research fellow on the Arts and Humanities Research Council funded project, REWINDitalia, based out of Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, University of Dundee.
Stephen Partridge is an artist, academic researcher, and pioneer of Early British video art. He is Professor of Media Art at the University of Dundee and co-editor (with Sean Cubitt) of Rewind: British Artists' Video in the 1970s & 1980s.
"This book is a significant contribution, based on a long and profound research journey, and an impressive network of actors. The cataloguing of their memories and observations, allow the reader to completely re-think not only Italian video art from the period in consideration, but broader trends in European and American video. We must be very grateful for the fine antennae of Partridge, Leuzzi and colleagues who have put together such a compelling and engaging portrait of Italian video art practice."
