Small sometimes plain even rudimentary most of the statues here were carved for modest shrines or for homes. China Institute Gallery 125 East 65th Street (212) 744-8181. (Cotter)DUGLAS GRDN: ‘SELF-PRTRAIT F YU + ME AFTER THE FACTRY’ Unlike “24 Hour Psycho” a signature work in which Douglas Gordon slowed down Hitchcock’s classic horror film to create a glacially paced but mesmerizing spectacle his art here resorts to splashier measures taking commercially available posters of Warhol paintings burning them and mounting the remains on mirrors… Gordon adds back enough to make the exchange worthwhile.

Gagosian Gallery 980 Madison Avenue near 76th Street (212) 744-2313. (Schwendener)★ ‘REVLUTINS: A CENTURY F MAKNDE MASQUERADE IN MZAMBIQUE’ Art from Mozambique and East Africa in general is scantily represented in public collections and the art of the Makonde peoples has been little studied in recent years.
