Add your own review!

Overview

In early 2007, Doug Aitken's work New Day Now will be projected onto seven facades on and around the MoMA building. This publication serves as both a document and an extension of the project. Designed by Aitken's studio and featuring critical texts by Klaus Biesenbach and Peter Eleey, the book examines Aitken's dramatic combinations of structural and narrative devices as well as additional behind-the-scenes material about his creative process.
