Don't miss the opening of Doug Aitken's first North American survey at the MOCA Geffen Contemporary. For more than 20 years, Aitken has produced multi-disciplinary works that rethink the timely topic of the “image-based contemporary condition”. The exhibition highlights Aitken's iconic moving-image installations like “Black Mirror” (2011), his lesser known drawings and collages, and his work in architecture, graphic design, books, printed matter, and more.
