Museum of Modern Art to Show \'The Clock\'

By PATRICIA COHEN

The Museum of Modern Art announced on Wednesday that it would exhibit Christian Marclay's wildly popular video installation, “The Clock,” which  won the Golden Lion award at the 2011 Venice Biennale.

“The Clock,” most recently shown in New York at the Lincoln Center Festival this summer, uses thousands of film excerpts from car chases, bank robberies, high-noon shootouts, romantic pairings and more  to chronicle the minutes and hours of one 24-hour period. The installation will run from Dec. 21 through Jan. 21. The museum plans to keep its contemporary galleries open round-the-clock on three weekends in January in order to show “The Clock” in its entirety.
