About this Exhibition

Acquired by Christchurch Art Gallery in 2008, Pan No.2 (one step forwards, one frame backwards) by Daniel Crooks offers a view of the contemporary city like you've never seen – with pedestrians, buildings, traffic and skateboarders stretched and morphed into mesmerising patterns.

New Zealand-born and Melbourne-based, Crooks is renowned for his experimental 'time-slice' video works.
