I started this year looking at quite a lot of Hiller's work and was therefore keen to go and see it in reality.

Monument 1980-81 |
|
From the Freud Museum 1991-6 |
|
An Entertainment 1990 a video, duration: 25min 59secs |
My work being based on memorial benches it was Monument that first drew my attention to Hillers work. Whilst researching Hiller for my presentation on critacal theory it was From the Freud Museum that I found a real interest in and having the oppertunity to veiw all of her boxes and not just the selected ones you see online or in books gave me a greater understanding of the peice. However the strongest peice from the exhibition for me was An Entertainment, photographs of this powerful vidion installation definately do not do this contradictory video any justice. I would advise all keen artists to see this exhibition as there is definately something for everyone.
