For ARCHIVE's most recent body of work, Art After Death, the artists conduct 'interviews' with the spirits of deceased artists to question ideas of personal histories, meaning and the act of interpretation. By employing professional spirit mediums to work as channels for each interview, Walsh and Kubick attempt to offer an alternative or 'parallel' portrait of each artist. Using audio cd's, museum audio tours, and video/sound installations, ARCHIVE has created works with communications from Joseph Cornell, Yves Klein, and the Countess of Castiglione. ARCHIVE's performance lecture at SFAI is the Bay Area premier of Art After Death: Yves Klein Speaks! which documents interviews with the legendary French artist.
