Abstract (en)

Introduces and interviews multi-media artist Allan McCollum, known for his series of installation object multiples and variants. Compares him to poet William Carlos Williams, particularly in their emphases on natural observations, process, and meaning. McCollum discusses his early artistic training, sources of inspiration and influences in New York and Los Angeles, family (identified as an important underpinning in his work), and aesthetics.
