In Production: Art and the Studio System

Duration Nov.7, 2019 - Mar.1, 2020

Venue Yuz Museum

The exhibition “In Production: Art and the Studio System” is organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in collaboration with Yuz Museum Shanghai. While the modes of film production, fandom, and publicity in the entertainment industry have long been topics of interest for contemporary art, this exhibition expands on the imbricated histories of visual art and film, featuring 24 contemporary artists whose works critique, appropriate, and engage with Hollywood and the film studio system, with a particular address of how the terms of “studio practice,” both in visual arts and in cinematic production, have radically shifted in the last twenty years.
