Christian Marclay’s The Clock is shown at the Museum of Fine Arts.
September 16, 2011
Made up of film snippets showing characters referring to the time of day, the 24-hour video collage work requires the museum to stay open all night. The film was to have been shown as part of a $200 per person fund-raising event scheduled for the next day, but the artist objected to it being restricted to a select audience and is instead shown to the general public.
