Monumental Guns and Their Targets
title: Shelfmark - 610.LDN.DOWER
subject: Documentary
description: A photographic survey of publicly sited cannons and artillery in Greater London and all the locations that they would hit if fired. The hypothetical strike points of the guns have been calculated using ballistics information and the complementary pairs of photographs of cannon and target are printed on oposing pages. The simultaneous firing of all these guns is readable as a performance proposal, but one that is extremely unlikely to happen. The book contains an introduction, an index of technical information and an interview with the artist by Jon Wood. With support from Turner Contemporary Margate, Acme Studios and The Elephant Trust.
