In Conversation: Jeff Wall and Gary Dufour

Jeff Wall speaks to Gary Dufour about his new photographs, made on the beachfront of English Bay in Vancouver, Canada, that record the endlessly varied and shifting patterns created in seaweed by the ebb and flow of the tide. The interview discusses the role of 'fluid intelligence' in the artist's photographic practice using examples and comparisons drawn from the past twenty years of his oeuvre, and how form and colour are paramount over and above any ostensive narrative content depicted.
