Sarah Morris Midtown

Midtown, Sarah Morris’s first film, was shot in a single day in New York. The artist hired a news crew to film various locations in Manhattan. This portrait of the city reveals not only the power of corporations, which is reflected in the architecture, but also the anonymity of the metropolis’s streets.
