One of the fathers of video art, Gary Hill has exhibited his video and video installations widely worldwide. He is represented by Donald Young Gallery of Chicago.

An anthology on the work of Gary Hill by Robert C. Morgan was published by Johns Hopkins University Press in 1999.

Just as Giotto paved the way for several generations of renaissance artists, Gary Hill has lifted postmodern video installation art up to the highest reaches of the fine arts world. More than any other installation artist, Hill's work successfully combines equally strong elements of video, sculpture, audio, spoken text, and written text. As the principle precursor to today's blossoming video art movement, Hill has staged shows in major museums and galleries all over the world. ^{citation needed]} In spite of the bizarre and deconstructive nature of Hill's installations, he has been embraced by many of the art world's most powerful curators and critics. ^{citation needed]}
