Gordon Matta-Clark. Program five

"Automation House: This tape is an exercise in spatial perception, using mirror reflections of people and their movements. Producer: Carlotta Schoolman. Clockshower: In this film of one of his most daring performances, Matta-Clark climbed to the top of the Clocktower in New York and washed, shaved and brushed his teeth while suspended over the streets in front of the huge clockface. City Slivers: This film is a formal investigation of New York's urban architecture. The film was planned to be projected on the exterior facade of a building, and was shown for the first time in the open air exhibition ARCADES and later in the Holly Solomon Gallery."--Electronic Arts Intermix website
