Roger Welch and the Sculpture of Memory

by Philip Smith

Arts Magazine, Oct. 1975, v. 50, no. 2, pp. 57-59

Roger Welch's video installations explore memory "on the periphery of recollection". This article details Welch's approach to gathering remembered material from his subjects and the methodologies of his practice, including display. "Welch selectively retells and recreates an incident with a method that is both intensely personal as well as objectively direct".
