Threshold
		1992
	Off-site installation One Market Plaza

Pavilion at One Market Plaza One Market Street, San Francisco, California (between Steuart and Spear Streets) Dates Bill Viola’s Threshold is on view: July 12–September 3 , 1999		The current news scrolls across an electronic display sign with up-to-date reports on the daily events of the world. The illuminated text is harsh and bright. A black open doorway intersects the sign, dividing it in two and leading to a dark inner room. Inside this room, three large, dim, projections of people's faces appear on the walls. They are asleep and the sound of regular breathing can be heard in the darkness.
