Douglas Gordon - 24-hour Psycho (1993)

“The work consists entirely of an appropriation of Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960 Psycho slowed down to approximately two frames a second, rather than the usual 24. As a result it lasts for exactly 24 hours, rather than the original 109 minutes.

The film was an important work in Gordon’s early career, and is said to introduce themes common to his work, such as recognition and repetition, time and memory, complicity and duplicity, authorship and authenticity, darkness and light.”

photographer: Davide Sorrenti

(from In Memory of Davide)

I think this photo is part of an actually pretty interesting branch of 90’s photography. Models with kind of brutal styling (minimal makeup, pulled back hair), terrible lighting and technically flawed photography.
