Dan Graham and his other peciliarities...

Oh yeah, so if the reading about Dan Graham in Versteeg's History Workshop didn't clarify some of his intentions these links to other tangential work by Dan Graham won't help either. For some weird reason he is sort of famous for this video called "Rock My Religion", it's about rock and Shaker culture, bits of it are dry, or you got to be in the mood, here is a preview version of that video on youtube:


The entire video is available on Ubu Web is here, it's an hour long:

If you are curious what's he like now, like how his personality developed, here is a Tate Short video of him discussing some paintings of John Martin:
