Herring developed TASK as a self-generating, improvisational gathering in which a community engages in a collaborative art-making event. Using cardboard, tape, aluminum foil, pipe cleaners, markers and other materials, participants follow a simple set of rules: write a task for someone to perform, then randomly select a task to perform yourself (e.g. \"Use cardboard mailing tubes to make a symphony;\" \"Form a conga line;\" \"Create a crime scene\" ). The cycle continues, task building upon task, as people share new ways to develop ideas and solve problems. This volume includes a detailed history of TASK by Herring; extensive photo-documentation of TASK parties and events in the U.S., Canada, England, France and Japan; statements by participants; instructions on how to organize a TASK party; and essays by curators\/ organizers Ian Berry, Kendra Paitz and Kristen Hileman.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University Galleries","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47999716491415,"sku":"9780945558347","price":2076.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780945558347.webp?v=1783601513","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/oliver-herring-task-9780945558347","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
