Air Supplied
Air Supplied doubles as an artbook and edited collection of critical essays on the work of Australian-based artist David Cross.

Working across performance/participatory art and object-based environments, Cross has developed a unique body of work that focuses on relationships between pleasure, the grotesque, and phobia. His curious architectural structures, which often resemble children’s funhouses, draw participants into physically and psychologically complex scenarios. While often large in scale, these structures at the same time create a framework around which id...
Recollections in Tranquility
Recollections in Tranquility is a sequel to Immigrantss Son. OPrey examines his fifteen years in religious life, comments upon his training, and compares his eight years teaching in parochial schools with his twenty-nine in public education.

Exhausting Dance
The only scholarly book in English dedicated to recent European contemporary dance, Exhausting Dance: Performance and the Politics of Movement examines the work of key contemporary choreographers who have transformed the dance scene since the early 1990s in Europe and the US. Through their vivid and explicit dialogue with performance art, visual arts and critical theory from the past thirty years, this new generation of choreographers challenge our understanding of dance by exhausting the concept of movement. Their work demands to be read as performed extensions of the radical politics implied in performance art, in post-structuralist and critical theory, in post-colonial theory, and in crit...

Air Supplied
Air Supplied examines the work of Australian-based artist David Cross. Known for his practice with inflatable structures, the work often draws audiences into unexpected situations and dialogues. Working across performance/participatory art and object-based environments, Cross, has developed a unique body of work that focuses on relationships between pleasure, the grotesque and phobia. His curious architectural structures often resembling children's fun houses draw participants into physically and psychologically complex scenarios. While often large in scale, these structures at the same time create a framework around which ideas of intimacy and haptic experience can be negotiated and challenged. Since 2011 Cross has begun to work increasingly in the public sphere developing works that navigate the relationship between sport, collective decision making and sensory deprivation. Capturing work since 2005 produced in Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, and Australasia, the text features a survey essay by New Zealand-based academic Dr Martin Patrick, an interview with the artist and eleven commissioned essays on each of the artworks.
