This event has ended.

First shown at the Whitney in the 1993 Biennial, Sadie Benning now presents her latest video installation Play Pause (2006) as part of the Whitney’s Contemporary Series. Recognized for her experimental narrative videos, which she started making in the late 1980s, Benning’s two-channel, thirty-minute video departs from her earlier work, cutting together hundreds of the artist’s gouache drawings of urban landscapes, figures, and abstractions. This is Benning’s first solo museum exhibition in New York.
