2001 | 2 minutes 4 seconds | DVD | edition of 10
In 3 Trucks, Los Angeles-based artist Euan MacDonald orchestrates an uneasy but hilarious moment by bringing together three ice-cream trucks at a three way stop; all billowing out their own distorted but happy tunes in the ultimate ice-cream stand-off.
