Journey Into Fear by Stan Douglas\n\nPublisher: Walther König, Köln, 2002\nPreface: Julia Peyton-Jones\nIntroduction: Achim Borchardt-Hume\nFormat: Hardcover\nEdition: First\nPages: 168\nISBN: 9783883755540\n\nPublished on the occasion of the Serpentine Gallery's Exhibition, 27 February - 7 April 2002.\nIntricate and emotive, Stan Douglas' film installations are concerned with complex psychological states such as collective memories, forgotten histories, and social alienation. His recent project Journey into Fear derives from two sources--the 1942 and 1975 films of the same name, and Melville's late novel The Confidence Man--and presents an endless array of possibilites, juxtaposing repetition and novelty, destroying conventional senses of time, and trapping the viewer in the haunting world of the film. Journey Into Fear is essentially a series of dialogues between characters on a container vessel at sea off Vancouver, scripted by Douglas and novelist Michael Turner.
