  • Art:21 - Roni Horn
    art:21
    2005
    Roni Horn explores the mutable nature of art through sculptures, works on paper, photography, and books. Horn describes drawing as the key activity in all her work because drawing is about composing relationships. Horn crafts complex relationships between the viewer and her work by installing a single piece on opposing walls or in adjoining rooms.
     
    Roni Horn is featured in the Season 3 episode “Structures” of the series “Art:21 — Art in the Twenty-First Century.”

  • Art:21 - John Feodorov
    art:21
    2001
    John Feodorov's work critiques stereotypes present in American culture, where Native Americans are idealized as the living embodiment of spirituality by New Age consumerists. Fedorov addresses clichés through a humorous interjection of “sacred” items into recognizable consumer products, investing installations and sculptural objects with whimsy and fantasy.
     
    John Feodorov is featured in the Season 1 episode “Spirituality” of the Art21 series “Art:21 — Art in the Twenty-First Century.”

  • Art:21 - Matthew Ritchie
    art:21
    2001
    Matthew Ritchie's work describes the formation of the universe and deals explicitly with the idea of information being “on the surface.” Although often described as a painter, Ritchie creates works on paper, lenticular prints, large-scale installations, freestanding sculpture, web sites, and short stories which tie his sprawling works together into a narrative structure.
     
    Matthew Ritchie is featured in the Season 1 episode “Identity” of the Art21 series “Art:21 — Art in the Twenty-First Century.”

While auroras have fascinated observers for centuries, little had been known about their origin. But NASA is aiming to resolve this mystery with a new mission called THEMIS.”

He also comments on two upcoming megaprojects: a pipe to bring water from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea, and the new Beijing airport.
  • Art:21 - Catherine Sullivan
    art:21
    2007
    Excerpts from Catherine Sullivan‘s film installations Big Hunt, 2002, Ice Floes of Franz Joseph Land, 2003, and The Chittendens 2006.
     
    Catherine Sullivan’s anxiety-inducing films and live performances reveal the degree to which everyday gestures and emotional states are scripted and performed, probing the border between innate and learned behavior. Sullivan‘s appropriation of classic Hollywood filming styles, period costumes, and contemporary spaces such as corporate offices draws the viewer’s attention away from traditional narratives and towards an examination of performance itself.

  • Art:21 - Martin Puryear
    art:21
    2003
    Martin Puryear‘s sculptures—in wood, stone, tar, wire, and various metals—are a marriage of Minimalist logic with traditional ways of making. Puryear’s exploration in abstract forms retain vestigial elements of utility from everyday objects found in the world. A form that reoccurs in Puryear's work is the hollow mass, a solid shape with qualities of uncertainty and emptiness.
     
    Martin Puryear is featured in the Season 2 episode “Time” of the series “Art:21 — Art in the Twenty-First Century.”

  • Art:21 - Jessica Stockholder
    art:21
    2005
    A pioneer of multimedia genre-bending installations, Jessica Stockholder's site-specific interventions and autonomous floor and wall pieces have been described as “paintings in space.” Her work is energetic, cacophonous, and idiosyncratic, but closer observation reveals formal decisions about color and composition, and a tempering of chaos with control.
     
    Jessica Stockholder is featured in the Season 3 episode “Play” of the Art21 series “Art:21 — Art in the Twenty-First Century”.

  • Mirage
    Joan Jonas
    1976
    For Mirage I made a film of drawing, again and again, images on a blackboard, and then erasing them. Reading the essays collected in Spiritual Disciplines, I got another idea to use drawings, also in Mirage, which I called ‘Endless Drawings’ after those described in the Melukean Book of the Dead, the tribal ritual book of New Guinea. There it says that in order to go from one world to the next you must finish a drawing in sand which an old lady, the devouring witch, begins at the boundary between life and death.

  • Art:21 - Hiroshi Sugimoto
    art:21
    2005
    Central to Hiroshi Sugimoto‘s work is the idea that photography is a time machine, a method of preserving and picturing memory and time. Sugimoto sees with the eye of the sculptor, painter, architect, and philosopher. He creates images that seem to convey his subjects’ essence, whether architectural, sculptural, painterly, or of the natural world.

    2003
    A cult figure associated with the Los Angeles punk rock scene, Raymond Pettibon has acquired a reputation as one of the foremost artists working with drawing, text, and artist's books. Pettibon is as likely to explore the subject of surfing as he is typography; themes from art history and nineteenth-century literature appear in the same breath with the American politics from the 1960s.
     
    Raymond Pettibon is featured in the Season 2 episode “Humor” of the Art21 series “Art:21 — Art in the Twenty-First Century.”

    Laurie Simmons stages photographs and films with paper dolls, finger puppets, ventriloquist dummies, and costumed dancers as ’living objects‘, animating a dollhouse world suffused with nostalgia and colored by an adult’s memories, longings, and regrets. Her work blends psychological, political and conceptual approaches to art making, transforming photography's propensity to objectify people, especially women, into a sustained critique of the medium.

    2007
    Robert Ryman's work explodes the classical distinctions between art as object and art as surface, sculpture and painting, structure and ornament—emphasizing instead the role that perception and context play in creating an aesthetic experience. Ryman isolates the most basic of components—material, scale, and support—enforcing limitations that allow the viewer to focus on the physical presence of the work in space.

    Artist Barkley L. Hendricks discusses “Birth of the Cool,” his retrospective exhibition at Duke University‘s Nasher Museum.
     
    Born in 1945 in Philadelphia, Hendricks’s unique work resides at the nexus of American realism and post-modernism, a space somewhere between portraitists Chuck Close and Alex Katz and pioneering black conceptualists David Hammons and Adrian Piper. He is best known for his stunning, life-sized portraits of people of color from the urban northeast.
     
    The exhibition will travel to the Studio Museum in Harlem, the Santa Monica Museum (Los Angeles), the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia, and the Contemporary Arts Museum in Houston.
