Colin Campbell

ArtUS, 2009, no. 26, p. 98

Sayej reviews People Like Us, a survey of the late Colin Campbell's video works. The author muses that the arc of Campbell's career was shaped by the constant desire to return to and recreate the effectiveness of his early work Sackville, I'm Yours. However, according to Sayej, Campbell, a founding member of Vtape, was never quite able to sustain his original allure in his later works.
