Summary |
The element of time is always present in our interaction with works of art, whether we sit to contemplate a painting for a few moments, stroll past a sculpture, or watch a video piece for its entire duration or cycle. Some works of art are time-based in that the viewer must experience them through the passage of time, as with music, while others refer to time through links or references to art history, our collective human history, or the timelessness of nature. For some, a work of art can make time stand still. This episode features work by Martin Puryear, Paul Pfeiffer, Vija Celmins and Tim Hawkinson |
