In the self-portrait of you + me series, Gordon burned commercial reproductions of Andy Warhol’s immortalized cultural icons and placed them on mirrored backgrounds, giving them an eerily powerful presence. Gordon’s portraits underscore Warhol's phenomenal resonance in today's art world, while capturing the self-reflexive nature of the post-Warholian period.
Douglas Gordon was born in Glasgow and studied art first there (at the Glasgow School of Art) from 1984-1988 and later at the Slade School of Fine Art, University College London, from 1988-1990. His first solo show was in 1986.
Much of Gordon's work is seen as being about memory and uses repetition in various forms. In one early work, Meaning and Location (1990), a passage from the Gospel of Luke is given with a comma in different places, thus subtly changing the meaning of the sentence. List of Names (1990-present) is a list of every person Gordon has ever met and can remember. One version of this is applied onto the wall of a stairwell in the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art.
Some of Gordon's works are related to the films of Alfred Hitchcock. 24 Hour Psycho (1993) is Hitchcock's film Psycho slowed down so that it lasts twenty four hours. Feature Film (1999) is a projection of Gordon's own film of James Conlon conducting Bernard Herrmann's score to Vertigo, thus drawing attention to the film score and the emotional responses it creates in the viewer. In one installation, this was placed at the top of a tall building, referencing one of the film's main plot points. He has also made a film about Zinedine Zidane (Zidane, un portrait du 21e siècle).
Gordon has also made photographs, often in series with relatively minor variations between each individual piece.
Gordon won the Turner Prize in 1996 and the following year he represented Britain at the Venice Biennale. In 2005, he put together an exhibition at the Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin called 'The Vanity of Allegory'. In 2006, there was an exhibition of his at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, called 'Timeline'.
Gordon traces his interest in film back to the childhood experience of falling asleep to the films his parents used to watch on television. These films entered his subconscious and now find expression in his artwork, which epitomises a new fluidity between video and film in contemporary art.
In 2008, Douglas Gordon won the prestigious Roswitha Haftmann Prize, awarded in Zurich, Switzerland.
Douglas Gordon is represented by the Gagosian Gallery, New York, Beverly Hills and London.
