Mid-Week Screening: Art21: Paradox

About

How do contemporary artists address contradiction, ambiguity and truth? The “Art in the Twenty-First Century” documentary “Paradox” investigates the boundaries between abstraction and representation, fact and fiction, order and chaos through the works of the artists Allora & Calzadilla, Catherine Sullivan, Mark Bradford and Robert Ryman. Creating juxtapositions that are at times disorienting, playful and unexpected, these artists engage with the uncertain and plumb accepted assumptions of meaning in art.
