In 200 Mouths to Feed (1994) Claude Closky brings together images from some 200 TV advertisements, briefly edited at precisely the fleeting, but important, point where the model introduces into his or her dilated mouth the branded product being sold - chocolate, yoghurt or other food products. Again, this is fun, especially when the exhortation to be agreeably satisfied is seen to become increasingly implausible, in relation to such a ludicrous onslaught of feigned pleasure. Consumption, in both the literal and figurative sense, is shown as beyond meaningful gratification. Condemned to push our shopping trolleys up the hill of desire, we watch helplessly as they are kicked back down and we are told to start again. (Neal Brown)
