Description: "Hans und Grete, Sue de Beer's two-channel video installation, portrays the psychological lives of recent American school shooters. Considering real-life horrific events and their resulting social phenomena, De Beer finds common ground between terror--calculated acts of violence--and the morbid, escapist fantasies of the horror genre"--P. 18.
Notes: "The catalogue appears as a documentation of Sue de Beer's residency in the International Studio Programme as the Philip Morris Art Fellow at the American Academy in Berlin 2001/2002"--Colophon.
