The acclaimed installation The Clock 2010 has captivated audiences across the world. The 24-hours long video, is a montage of thousands of film and television images of clocks, edited together so they show the actual time. It is a thrilling journey through cinematic history as well as a functioning timepiece. Following several years of rigorous and painstaking research and production, Marclay collected together excerpts from well-known and lesser-known films including thrillers, westerns and science fiction. He then edited these so that they flow in real time. When watching The Clock you experience a vast range of narratives, settings and moods within the space of a few minutes. There will be overnight 24-hour screenings on 3 November and 1 December 2018. Tate jointly acquired Christian Marclay's celebrated video work in 2012 together with the Centre Pompidou, Paris and The Israel Museum, Jerusalem. The Clock will be on view until January 2019.
