Enter Museum on the final day of “The Broken Silence,” an exhibition of three fictitious American modern artists. What “art” means to its makers, their families and friends; what it conveys to collectors, curators, aficionados, browsers, wanderers, philistines, and the security guards who watch over it; how it can turn people into snobs, swine, seducers, saints, or raving exhibitionists in the blink of an eye—these are among the hilarious developments Tina Howe derives from her simple theme of people in a public space looking at an object in Museum—a theatrical satire of the modern art world.
“Moving and beautiful… a passionate and thoroughly personal play about the whole world. The gallery becomes a parable of humanity… a terrific ‘slice of life’ comedy. If Mozart had produced a segment on modern art for Candid Camera, it would resemble Tina Howe’s Museum.”
Directed by Andy Regiec.
Produced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.
The text of Museum is available in the collection Coastal Disturbances through our online bookstore.
The art work on exhibit in Museum will be provided by MAX21, a group of award-winning artists working and exhibiting at ARTWORKS Gallery and Studio in Reston: a place to inspire, inform, and instruct the creative process.
