Three Thousand Famous Men, 1980
Three Thousand Famous Men focuses on an improvised
monologue about the idea of the hero. It was initially used as an element in a
performance staged at the Arnolfini Gallery in Bristol and then the Het
Appollohuis, Eindhoven Holland where the video segued into a section where the
artist with either Jon Bewley or Ken Gill, dressed in formal suits,
launched into an energetic bout of wrestling. It later became a stand-alone
video piece.
Three Thousand Famous Men, by Richard Grayson was a work that was part of The Basement Group Showreel produced in 1983.
