Video Installations by Douglas Gordon

Douglas Gordon, will be displaying several video installation pieces at MOMA in New York City. Douglas Gordon is best known for his video installation pieces involving popular films such as Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho" in which Douglas Gordon manipulated the film to play over a period of 24 hours. I saw this installation at MOCA in downtown L.A. several years ago as well as Gordon's other famous piece in which he uses two screens on opposite walls to project images of Robert De Niro's famous lines from the movie "Taxi" when he says, "You talkin' to me?" His most recent installation in New York, however, deals with different subject matter. The exhibition will be on display on the Special Exhibtion gallery, sixth floor June 11-September 4, 2006 and in the Film and Media Gallery, second floor June 11- October 2, 2006 at The Museum of Modern Art in New York city.
