Throughout Barney’s work, there is an appeal to the viewer to engage on a sensory level that goes beyond the immediately comprehensible, and even beyond the conscious. Easily parodied as impenetrable art waffle and yet unashamedly ribald and obscene, Barney achieves a delicate balance between cloistered affectation and warm colloquialism. Taken together, it represents as much a test of patience as a joyful refusal of cinematic conventions.
