Gone is a 2-channel installation based on epsiode no.2 of producer Craig Gilbert's An American Family, the landmark 1970s Public Television cinema verite documentary about the Loud Family of Santa Barbara, California. The second episode of the series follows mother Pat Loud's arrival in New York, where she spends the week with her son Lance, who is living at the Chelsea Hotel. Much of the dialogue in Gone is based on the actual dialogue in the original series.

Funding provided by the New York State Council on the Arts,the Jerome Foundation,and the Wexner Center for the Arts.
