Artists of Mixografia

Thursday, July 14 @ Georgia Museum of Art

John Baldessari

Highlighting artists whose work appears in the current printmaking exhibition “Paper in Profile: Mixografia and Taller de Gráfica Mexicana,” the museum’s film series presents a double feature. Kiki Smith: Squatting the Palace shadows the sculpture artist in her East Village home as she prepares an eight-room installation for the Fondazione Querini Stamplia in Venice, Italy. The documentary will be followed by A Brief History of John Baldessari, a six-minute short narrated by musician Tom Waits. Using amusing anecdotes, the video illustrates the life of the Californian conceptual artist who once cremated over a decade’s worth of paintings and promised, “I will not make any more boring art.”
