Winnipeg-based artist Daniel Barrow uses obsolete technologies to
present written, pictorial and cinematic narratives centering on the
practices of art-making and collecting. Since 1993, he has created and
adapted comic book narratives to "manual" forms of animation by
projecting, layering and manipulating drawings on overhead projectors.
He variously refers to this practice as "graphic performance or manual
animation."
Barrow has exhibited widely in Canada and abroad. He has performed at The Museum of Contemporary Art (Los Angeles), New Langton Arts (San Francisco), The Contemporary Art Gallery (Vancouver), and the Gene Siskel Film Center (Chicago). Barrow is the 2007 winner of the Canada Council's Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton award and the 2008 winner of the Images Festival's Images Prize.
