Canadian artist Stan Douglas combines traditional cinematic techniques with new technologies to produce remarkable video installations. These visually complex works often look at the history of television, video and film, and can result in dramatic contemporary portraits as well as serene landscape imagery.
From his early brief dramas for television, depicting uncanny, David Lynch-like suburban encounters, to his spectacular large-screen recent installation, Der Sandmann, exploring childhood trauma and repressed memory, Douglas s work is layered with the artist s observations on social and racial alienation and psychic states. Featured in two Documentas and nominated for the Hugo Boss/Guggenheim prize in 1997, Douglas has recently emerged as an international figure. This is the first major publication on his work.
