Museum of Modern Art Chief Curator for Media and Performance Art Sabine Breitwieser offers her response to State of Mind: New California Art circa 1970 in a lively and informative gallery conversation with exhibition co-curator Constance M. Lewallen.
Have you ever heard the sound of ice melting? State of Mind: New California Art circa 1970, part of Pacific Standard Time, offers an in-depth exploration of Conceptual art made by both Northern and Southern California artists during a pivotal period in contemporary art. The more than 150 works of art on display—many rarely seen or newly discovered—are organized by themes, such as the street, the body, politics, private/public space, and language/wordplay, that elucidate this dynamic era in our history and foreshadow the concerns of young artists working today.
