Christian Marclay is a New York based visual artist and composer whose innovative work explores the juxtaposition between sound recording, photography, video and film.

He has an extensive exhibition and performance record including solo exhibitions at the Philadelphia Museum of Art; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington D.C.; the Venice Biennial; the Kunsthaus, Zurich; the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles.
