The Minneapolis Institute of Arts is showing the movie ‘Migration’ as part of an interesting themed show called, UNTIL NOW. Migration gives us these unsettling juxtapositions of animals in the human environment. The image of this buffalo in a hotel room falls into the category of things you thought you’d never see…The show runs through August 1st, 2010, in Minneapolis.

Migration - Doug Aitken

From the press release:
In “Migration” the movements of wild North American migratory animals are transposed upon the ubiquitous space of modern roadside hotels and motels. As the wild birds and animals inhabit these mysteriously vacant and sterile interiors we’re taken on a haunting odyssey through the contemporary American landscape.

Clips of the movie can be viewed here.
