Bill Viola: Collected Work, 1977–80

Pioneering video artist Bill Viola helped make the medium vital to contemporary art in the 1970s and 1980s and remains among its most important practitioners. The artist describes this work as “a collection of five independent works which, taken as a whole, describe the stages of a personal journey using images of transition — from day to night, motion to stillness, time to timelessness, etc. Each work explores specific video techniques and technologies, in combination with the spatial potentials of stereo sound.”
