The presence of William Shenrock on the contemporary art scene is discrete: he is either actively exposed, sometimes disappears, sometimes acts as an actionist, sometimes as an interviewer of leading figures of contemporary art, then as the author of an album of conceptual drawings, accompanied by philosophical commentaries. Perhaps the constant component of his work, in fact, and giving it integrity, is accentuated self-reflection: language (graphic, literary, body language in performance and photography media) is primarily aimed at self-description.
