Life Span – VHS Tapes Collection
What looks like the world’s biggest videotape collection, is actually an artistic display presented at this year’s Venice Biennale of Contemporary Art.
Entitled Life Span and displayed in a small church on Garibaldi Street, this giant block full of VHS videotapes is the work of Australian artists Claire Healey and Sean Cordeiro. In numbers 195,774 tapes and features a total recording time of 66 years.
Life Span is a physical representation of what a human being can see from its birth, to the day it dies.

wow that’s a lot of tapes. Pretty cool art. I’m suprised they used some bootleg tapes
I used to have that type of videotape many years ago … still have one in at my house.
