Absolutely bloody loved this video! The bit when her dog is sitting there posing for Joan whilst she is drawing her. I don't know much about Joan Jonas either, but I'm inspired to find out more now. Love her quick drawing experiments.

Double Lunar Dogs (1984) is not a painting as much as a performance of painting; angry red paint and dancing brushes. Gestures created from the shoulder and torso, than from the hand. Careful respect for the edges of the paper. More like modern dance, than painting. Perhaps too personal?
