Daniel Crooks: the Sub­tle Knife
Until 31 Jan­u­ary in Times Square, Manhattan


As the resid­ual dystopia of 2020 per­sists even with the turn of the new year, the Mel­bourne-based dig­i­tal artist Daniel Crooks, who is best known for his works that dis­tort per­cep­tion and tem­po­ral expe­ri­ence, has pro­duced a hyp­no­tis­ing video work that aims to trans­port view­ers to a place where the world is less con­crete”, the artist says, and where the mod­els we have in our heads of what is real becomes slight­ly less fixed”. Shown across 72 syn­chro­nised elec­tron­ic bill­boards above most­ly shut­tered retail spaces in New York’s Times Square — which has become an omi­nous space since the onset of the pan­dem­ic left it des­o­late — the work is rem­i­nis­cent of a time-lapse video on loop, where train tracks and reced­ing door­ways lead the view­er to vague­ly famil­iar but fleet­ing par­al­lel worlds.

The work is being pre­sent­ed by Times Square Arts in part­ner­ship with the Asia Soci­ety Muse­um and the inau­gur­al Asia Soci­ety Tri­en­ni­al, titled We Do Not Dream Alone and on view in mul­ti­ple venues until 7 Feb­ru­ary. The work is part of Times Square’s Mid­night Moment, a year-long pro­gramme of dig­i­tal exhi­bi­tions that are shown month­ly from 11:57 to midnight.
