HONORING
Featured in Art21 Extended Play film “Systems & Structures” (2022), Charles Gaines is a conceptual artist whose work investigates the ways in which society produces distinctions and categories. Examining the underlying structures of social and political life, Gaines calls attention to the systems that organize our daily lives and the inequities and injustices they produce.
Featured in Season 2 of Art in the Twenty-First Century (2003) and the Extended Play film “Interrupting the Broadcast” (2023), Paul Pfeiffer employs video, sculpture, and photography to dissect the role that mass media plays in shaping consciousness. Presented on small LCD screens and often looped, Pfeiffer’s intimate and idealized video works are meditations on faith, desire, and a contemporary culture obsessed with celebrity.
