This intimate publication focuses on Frances Stark's pivotal feature length video My Best Thing, (premiered at the 54th Venice Biennale in 2011) a digital video animation, which traces the development of two sexual encounters that progress into conversations about film, literature, art, collaboration and subjectivity.British curator Mark Godfrey captures the density of this recent work by Stark with an in-depth essay considering the artist's use of online sex-chat rooms as vehicles for her creative process.In conveying the complexity of her interests Stark manages to imbue these commonly disparaged internet sites, as well as their users, with positive, productive and social characteristics. In Stark's depiction, as Godfrey states, 'Strangers meet, communicate, share ideas rather than brand preferences, and change how each one sees the world.' Published on the occasion of the exhibition Frances Stark: My Best Thing at Walter Phillips Gallery, Banff (24 September - 11 December 2011), and Contemporary Art Gallery, Vancouver (3 February - 8 April 2012).
