Abstract (English)Catalogue to accompany three separate exhibitions of small sculptures, multiples, digital prints, artist’s books and video installations by Olson. Hatt’s introduction emphasizes the dimension of play in Olson’s work. In his interpretation, composer Arnold quotes Adorno’s appreciation of fireworks to evoke the “pyrotechnic nature” of the artist’s production, developing the notions of duration (in the sense of enduring), artistic experience, apparition, and use of sound and music. Also contains an interview with the artist by Ritchie exploring the work’s strategies, the role of video, and the relationship to the audience. List of works and illustrations. Brief biographical notes on Arnold and Ritchie. 3 bibl. ref.
