The Polygon Gallery
Christian Marclay's The Clock (2010) is a 24 hour motion picture built from previously tailored film images and sounds that carry each minute of the day -- all 1440 of them. Does one need to see it? Yes. For reasons that will dawn on you once you are in its grips. Not the movie to eat popcorn to -- but the popcorn itself!
Also at Polygon: a witty and thoughtful exhibition of dog pictures and video curated by Diane Evans; a somewhat gangly sculptural intervention by Samuel Roy-Bois (it is difficult to place a form designed to obscure an exterior view inside something as inwardly prepossessed as an art gallery); and, finally Sara Cwynar: Gilded Age II, another pictures and video exhibition where the former felt like dulls pendants to the latter's spiralling, overlapping interrogation/explication of things rose gold.
