註釋

"From the dark European woods of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales to the misty rain forests of Canada's West Coast, the Old and New Worlds distantly communicate through Stan Douglas' film and video installations. In these circuits of exchange that link global to local, the past returns to haunt the present. Douglas' installations are mediumistic machines that reproduce these circuits and transmissions in the guise of literary and movie remakes, Gothic fictions that crank the machinery of obsolete technologies and the history of failed utopias." "Canadian author Philip Monk enmeshes the reader in the mechanisms of these uncanny automations. He presents each work as a complex moment in the archaeology of the formation of the modern subject from the colonial, revolutionary and romantic periods through to the present day. The artist's project descriptions and film scripts guide the reader through the representative selection of works."--BOOK JACKET.
