Art21
was founded as a non-profit art organization to provide access to
contemporary art and artists to broad-based audiences by documenting the
artists of our time for broadcast television and the internet,
providing companion educational materials, and teaching educators.
In the past decade, Art21 has used the power of digital media to
introduce millions of people of all ages worldwide to contemporary art
and artists, creating a new paradigm for teaching and learning about the
creative process.’Balance’ features Rackstraw Downes, Robert Mangold and Sarah
Sze. Through sculpture, paintings, and installations, the artists in this hour
grapple with equilibrium and disequilibrium as they create highly structured
works that challenge conventional notions of perception and representation.
