Rituals in Transfigured Time

Join us for an evening of short films by Gordon Matta-Clark, Bruce Nauman, Kiki Smith, and more. The notion of time, and altering delineations of space—positive and negative, interior and exterior, human and natural—are explored through a range of compositions and choreographies. These artists share an interest in traces, and their moving images can be considered drawings in time, as well as timed drawings.

In conjunction with the exhibition Rachel Whiteread Drawings.
