ALEX MCQUILKIN: ‘JOAN OF ARC’ In words and deeds (including a haircut) recorded in a brief, two-screen video projection, this artist explains and works through her obsession with Joan of Arc as portrayed by Maria Falconetti. The result has a disarming directness, restraint and authenticity that manage to do justice to the cinematic object of her affections.
