Ends and Exits: Picturing Art from the Collections of LACMA and The Broad Art Foundation

This selection of works from the Broad and LACMA collections, on view at LACMA through August 4, 2013, draws on the strengths of both to reflect directions in contemporary art that emerged in the 1980s. The seeds of what would come to be known as the Pictures Generation began in Los Angeles at CalArts where conceptual artist John Baldessari helped shape the careers of many artists, such as Troy Brauntuch, Matt Mullican, Jack Goldstein and David Salle. Curators, writers, and critics of the era grappled with an emerging sense that pictures rather than paintings were of importance in our postmodern world, subjecting the traditions of painting and image-making to scrutiny in response to an emerging media landscape and other seismic cultural shifts. 這裡, curator Franklin Sirmans and critic and artist Thomas Lawson look back at critical debates of the late 1970s and 1980s, and the impact on art from that era.
