By Russell Ferguson. Essays by Michael Darling, Russell Ferguson, Francis McKee, and Nancy Spector.

Published on the occasion of Douglas Gordon, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, September 16, 2001 – January 20, 2002.

This book examines the innovative work of thirty-four-year-old Scottish artist Douglas Gordon. Gordon is perhaps best known for installations that feature classic films by directors such as Alfred Hitchcock, Otto Preminger, and Martin Scorsese. In each of these works the original film has been manipulated—slowed down, mirrored by the use of split screen or dual projection, or had its soundtrack altered—to emphasize the artist's own signature themes, which include trust, guilt, madness, confession, deception, and doubling.
