Barbara Shawcroft- Weaver

Duration:

Year Published: 1976

Complete Record: Footage by Coni Beeson silent Close-up images of the yellow-orange rope as it is being used to make the large sculpture that we see in the other Barbara Shawcroft footage. We see Barbara Shawcroft and an assistant working on the sculptures. There is a wider shot of them working, where we can see a bit of the studio in the background, including a large bookshelf. There are long shots of a machine winding the rope together while a worker monitors. Some of the shots of the machine are so close-up as to approach abstraction.
