description: A major figure in contemporary art for the past 20 years, Jana Sterbak has developed a complex corpus of work which, while intellectual in inspiration, has emerged from the usual confines of artistic interest to provoke large-scale public debate. Since the creation of her controversial Flesh Dress for an Albino Anorexic, Sterbak has always touched a nerve. Sterbak’s video installation, "From Here to There" is comprised of a micro-camera, wireless image/sound transmission, multiple screens and a terrier named Stanley. A dog’s eye view of the City of the Doges is ample evidence of the artist’s sardonic wit, but as always with Sterbak, the real purpose lies elsewhere. In English, French and Italian.
