New York-based artist collective Type A, consisting of Adam Ames and Andrew Bordwin, employs a variety of media to create artwork that playfully explores the nature of collaboration and competition. Working together since 1998, their work looks closely at tensions inherent to these interactions. This documentary showcases their work by examining their relationship as both friends and collaborators, and how their humor and thoughtfulness shape their approach to art. Featured is Type A’s project developed for 100 Acres: The Virginia B.

On September 18, 2008 the Indianapolis Museum of Art broke ground on 100 Acres: The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park. Located on 100 acres of untamed woodlands, wetlands, a lake, and meadows adjacent to the Museum, the Art & Nature Park will be one of the largest museum art parks in the country and the only one to feature the ongoing commission of site-specific artworks. It will open in spring of 2010 with a visitor center, numerous trails, and eight site-specific inaugural works commissioned from emerging and midcareer artists.
