The NEW Shock of the New
2004 55 min 1 vues
Twenty-five years ago the renowned art critic Robert Hughes made The Shock of the New, a landmark television series that examined the key cultural movement of the 20th Century. Now he's back to look at more recent work and to question whether modern art can still be shocking in its originality and understanding. In an age of media saturation it's perhaps even harder to tell what is good art and what is bad; but Hughes cuts through the marketing and the hype to reveal the art that is vital and will last; the art which defines the times in which we live. In a film which features interviews with David Hockney, Paula Rego, Jeff Koons and Sean Scully, Robert Hughes makes the case that painting, drawing, and the search for beauty matter more than ever before.

Director Francesco Carrozzini creates an intimate portrait of his mother, Franca Sozzani, the legendary editor-in-chief of Italian Vogue. From the ridiculous to the sublime, her astonishing but often controversial magazine covers have not only broken the rules but also set the high bar for fashion, art and commerce over the past 25 years. From the legendary “Black Issue" and the “Plastic Surgery issue" Sozzani remains deeply committed to exploring subject matter off limits to most in order to shake up the status quo and occasionally redefine the concept of beauty.

In Jeff Koons: Diary of a Seducer, imagine... enters the world of one of the most successful, controversial and downright odd artists of our time. His gigantic balloon dogs and even bigger flower puppies have become iconic. His rows of virgin vacuum cleaners are frozen in time. Michael Jackson sits with his pet chimp Bubbles. But the artist who celebrates the commonplace and has put sex and the banal on a pedestal has mined some dark territory. Is it playtime or parental guidance recommended? As Jeff Koons' first retrospective takes over the Whitney Museum in New York and the Pompidou in Paris, imagine... asks what lies beneath the shiny surfaces.

Portrait de l’un des plus grands artistes français du début du XXe siècle depuis ses débuts où il publiait des dessins humoristiques dans la presse jusqu'à sa reconnaissance lorsqu'il s’est installé aux Etats-Unis. Inventeur des «ready-mades», objets usuels promus œuvres d'art, le peintre, plasticien et dessinateur Marcel Duchamp s’est inspiré des sciences et notamment des mathématiques pour réaliser ses créations à l’image de «Trois stoppages étalon».

Spit Earth: Who is Jordan Wolfson?
2020 55 min 1 vues
Spit Earth: Who Is Jordan Wolfson? is a feature documentary film about this controversial and divisive artist who in the ensuing five years has only solidified his stature with unnerving and provocative new works that elicit extreme reactions from both critical naysayers and vocal proponents alike. Wolfson is not content to play by the rules of a conservative self-policing art market that favors the status quo, instead preferring to make us squirm as he engages a host of lightning-rod issues facing our society today; homophobia, misogyny, racism, white nationalism, antisemitism and violence to name but a few. Wolfson is an art maker on the world stage whose immersive works take on today’s endemic virtue signaling and politically correct narratives, veritably throwing it all back into our faces.

Jeff Koons, un homme de confiance
2003 57 min 1 vues
Jeff Koons est sans doute le plus célèbre et le plus controversé des artistes vivants. Si les grandes institutions publiques et les collectionneurs américains l'ont depuis longtemps installé dans la position de l'héritier de Warhol, beaucoup d'Européens continuent de voir en lui un faiseur cynique. Rassemblant en lui l'esprit positif des grands entrepreneurs, la liberté du Pop et une exigence de perfection digne des maîtres anciens, Jeff Koons a indéniablement réussi à populariser les stratégies de l'avant-garde. Le film témoigne de sa réinvention du rôle de l'artiste en homme de communication, et de la place prise par ses œuvres dans la vie de quelques collectionneurs qui lui ont permis de réaliser ses rêves. À travers son activité d'artiste, ses propos et ceux de quelques proches, cet univers de séduction et de reflets laisse aussi entrevoir ses zones d'ombre et d'opacité.

As one art scene insider proclaims, the contemporary art world can be summed up as “rich people trying to prove how rich they are,” but is that all there is to this billion dollar industry? Well-researched and expertly constructed, Barry Avrich’s eye-opening documentary peels back the layers of the art world economy- from production to circulation, and delineates every integral player in the game of art-making, including curators, gallerists, collectors, donors, auction houses, and … artists. In the process, he unpacks the complex and surprising ecosystem that supports the art world superstars and million-dollar deals that make front-page news. Featuring extraordinary access to industry players and candid statements from prominent artists like Damien Hirst, Julian Schnabel, Taryn Simon, and Marina Abramovic, Blurred Lines collides the two narratives of the art world as both above and beholden to market forces.
