- Summary:
- "Since the 1980s, Canadian artist Stan Douglas (born 1960) has created films, installations, photographs, and other multidisciplinary projects that address moments of rupture where “history could go one way or the other.” Across formats, his images recall things that haunt: unresolved moments, political tumult, and violent turning points; plots that retain a hold, however imperceptible, on the present. His work operates within the genres of cinema, photography, and theater to present a point of view that is, always, staged. Stan Douglas: Ghostlight accompanies the artist’s first survey in the United States in more than twenty years, charting his global influence and innovation across forty works from the 1990s to the present."-- Publisher's website.
