Douglas Gordon Retrospective at MoMA Emphasizes Sculptural Qualities
The Museum of Modern Art in New York City hosted a Douglas Gordon retrospective from June 11 to September 4, 2006. While existing literature on the exhibition focuses on time and sociology, a critical review argues that Gordon's work is better understood as sculpture. The catalog, filled with mass-media images, is deemed irrelevant to this sculptural reading.
