With its paranoid-sublime vision of sleepless alienation in a perpetual present, techno-landscapist Doug Aitken's prize-winning 1999 video installation Electric Earth has practically gained canonical status since its unveiling at last year's Venice Biennale. Seen by some as twenty-first-century continuations of the (Robert) Smithsonian project, Aitken's virtual vistas use the formal devices of video--panning, cutting, and looping--to underline the psychological impact of contemporary industrial and urban settings.
Two brand-new works by Aitken will be on view in the main hall of the Vienna Secession between October 5 and November 26.
