Synchronized to the local time at each exhibition venue, The Clock deconstructs and challenges the narratives of individual scenes by removing them from their original context and inserting them into another, where time itself becomes the protagonist.Curator: Suzanne Landau On display during museum hours from February 20 to May 19.
