"THE CLOCK" Video In Real Time by Christian Marclay

http://ArtChick1.blogspot.com




The US premier of artist, Christian Marclay’s 24-hour film "The Clock" @Paula Cooper Gallery is an elliptically thrilling/endlessly enticing/must-see masterpiece of pleasure, appropriation, philosophical speculation and insight. Composed of 1000s of bits from movies/TV showing EVERY minute of the day and synced to REAL TIME. When it’s 5:32PM in a scene in the film it’s 5:32PM in the real world.

The film is shown in the gallery in real time that corresponds to real time on one's own watch when you enter and when you leave.  Art Enthusiasts seem to think that it is a cool way to spend those quiet off beat hours before daybreak from Midnight on Fridays thought 5AM Saturdays when the gallery is open to the public.
