'This catalogue is one of ten published on the occasion of the exhibition, Manufacturing Meaning: the Victoria University of Wellington Art Collection in context. It documents and explains the contribution of guest curator, Ewen McDonald, to the project. McDonald sets up a "conversation" between Samuel Beckett, Colin McCahon, Pieter Laurens Mol and Ania Walwicz, each of whom explore subjectivity in the process of its formation via performance, painting and writing.'
