"MATTHEW BARNEY: CREMASTER 2: The Drones' Exposition"
2000-05-20 until 2000-09-05
San Francisco Museum of Modern Art
San Francisco, CA, USA United States of America

CREMASTER 2, the latest installment in Matthew Barney's ongoing series of cinematic OPERAS, traces the rise and fall of antihero Gary Gilmore - convicted killer and alleged grandson of Harry Houdini.

Critically hailed as one of the most crucial artists of his generation, Barney peoples the hallucinatory landscape of his 35-millimeter film and its related installation with bees, bison, heavy-metal drummers, magicians, mediums, Mounties, two-steppers and much, much more. This will be the West Coast premiere of the film and full installation.
