Glen Seator Moving Still Author:Nina Holland, Peter Noever, Mieke Bal, Jonathan Crary, Peter Wollen Whether by recreating, in a gallery space, the façade and interior of a check-cashing establishment, the office of the director of a major museum, or the very street outside, Glen Seator breaks down the boundaries between the unseen and the visible, inside and outside, space and its representation.
