The Forever Now: Contemporary Painting in an Atemporal World at MoMA

- James Kalm recorded a walking tour of "What Is Painting" at MoMA in 2007. That program was one of the earliest, most highly viewed and commented on episodes of the Report to date. Seven years later, "The Forever Now" again presents a rare opportunity for lovers of painting to witness what the World's most prestigious institution of visual culture considers significant. The show's theme is premised on the notion that the internet has allowed information and influences to transcend time. This has freed artists from reflecting their own eras, while casting them into a mediated timelessness. Organized by Curator Laura Hoptman, this exhibition includes works by Richard Aldrich, Joe Bradley, Kerstin Brätsch, Matt Connors, Michaela Eichwald, Nicole Eisenman, Mark Grotjahn, Charline von Heyl, Rashid Johnson, Julie Mehretu, Dianna Molzan, Oscar Murillo, Laura Owens, Amy Sillman, Josh Smith, Mary Weatherford, and Michael Williams.

Thanks, James. Living on the other side of the planet in Australia, I don't often get the opportunity see what's happening in NYC at first hand. So, discovering your channel has been a terrific plus in remedying the 'tyranny of distance', and the next best thing to being there. Looking forward to your next tour.
Why would ANYONE kick you out. If I ever have a show in NY you're the first invite. Great content!
Great one James thank you for sharing!
Thanks Kate. Love the Rashid Johnson...you are always introducing me to fabulous artists i never heard of.
Thank you Kate.
I like Joe Bradley's work. Thanks a lot for covering this James
Thank you for the report. I felt like I am at MoMA viewing the works with you. Thank you again.
very very best!Many thank*s James!!!!!!!!!!!
Another great one. A lot of people don't care for the abstract stuff, but I find the creativity stimulating. I can certainly respect figurative as well or even someone super commercial like Thomas Kinkade, but a melting pot of art and ideas just makes it all the more worthwhile.
Thank you JamesKalma and Kate.
Cool to see such a great variety of work courtesy of the erstwhile Mr. Kalm.
thank you, james!
cool james!great experience . just like you said many of them seem to be very under transavanguardia or neoexpressionism ,its great because 20 years later you see things more clear ,and this is the artist expressing himself with no conceptual or minimal obligations,the show was about this expecific painting,,back the reality is that painting is back! and stronger for me newest and contemporary are; Luc tuyman,Neo Rauch,Daniel richter,whilem Sasnal,Santiago idanez,Matthias weischer,martinez Celaya,Oscar murillo,Dana schultz,Ariel Cabrera ,and many more...
+Luis del castillo Check out the new Dana Schutz video posted Sep. 12, 2015, "Fight in an Elevator".
enjoyed amy sillman work , Thankyou
thank you for all of your videos
Hey, you're welcome John. Glad you're enjoying them.
Thank you Kate, thank you everybody.
*pauses and googles Sam Gilliam*. Great. Thanks again James
Like the Rashid but must come back and look again at all the others...a lovely mess of paintings...days well spent...no harm done.
thanks for the virtual tour and comments
thank you!!!
thanks jameskalm
Thank you so much for all your effort in putting these videos out here for us all, cheers James! I couldn't help but catch you referencing a fellow Canadian artist while you were viewing Mark Grotjahn's paintings and I just had to ask if you meant Jean-Paul Riopelle?
Older painters can produce new and fresh work as well. So really age has nothing to do with artistic output. In fact cumulative experience and wisdom can potentially be even more engaging.
What a Pitt that you are in a hurry - we enjoy watching walking with you
I wasn't in a hurry, the guards and administrators were, and ran me out...Sorry...
Loren, your work on these exhibitions is so great (many, many thanks), but your pronounciation of some of the names is abominal. By the way, your voice is also exceptionally pleasant to listen to.
Which names were messed up (so I don't continue the mispronunciation)?
Love your understanding of art history. Would prefer if you posted after editing to remove the walking and you could slow down the video as you pass over the images for a steadier view. If you must, you could still use your onsite commentary or better yet you could re-record or dub the video in the edit.
Keep it up 👍🏽
Love your videos. Thank you for honest approach to good karma viewing of hollow bullshit artists and the machine that keeps them selling
good one
Hey what was the author of the works he showed at the begining , i really liked it i would love to know more about it .
Quite ok - may be it is good to be (too)sensitive. I love to follow your art walks and talk -
Forever Now was a great album by The Psychedelic Furs
Thank you. I saw too little courage or passion, way too much felt like grad school theses art. I wonder if that's because there are no real benchmarks to strive for in the quality of art presently.
I agree Robert, emperors"s new clothes, interior decorators pretending to have something serious to add to the visual arts.
btw, how can I get a list of your most recent tours, by date? I can't seem to get YT do do this for me. Thanks.
You can always visit lorenmunk.com. (and don'd forget the Rough Cuts Channel too)
16.27mins '..a line that leads off in the picture plain.' Eva Hesse piece, 'Girl being a sculpture'?
Could you please do a review of Devin Troy Strother solo exhibition Space Jam
I wanted to see the michael williams up close... damn
Eisenman basically blasts everyone in this awkwardly curated show. Thanks JK.
Just once I'd like to hear something like, "yeah, this artist has nothing to say." Otherwise, fascinating videos.
Who is the artist Mark groachen? At about 9 minutes? Thanks
Hey @JAMES FLOWERS czcams.com/video/BqkeXalC-h4/video.html
jameskalm thank you!
XX
in..posture.
krutto!!!!!!!
You are doing great job...except for the shaking ,fast moving videos and as running voice ( which is unpleasant to watch ). You are giving us tremendous views on the exhibitions. Thank you
Super baxters
artists without big names, would these still be considered art?
Not Dubbufett, but Pierre Soulages! Okay, Resnick is good too.
do artists now call acrylic paint "synthetic polymer"?....just curious.
tubeberk08 I 've never heard anyone call it synthetic polymer
Unfriendly suppost tho... I had that once in a museum where I was working as a vollunteer, closed at 18h and at a quarter to six they were really agressively throwing me out. I couldn' finnish the 2 last rooms bc that would interfear of them beeing out of the museum at 18h. Incredible and unrespectable imo. Especially for a museum that persues a public funtcion. A suppost should be calm and flexible. At least grant you the 5min marge to finnish up or smth, smh.
I see very little resemblance between Murillo and Basquiat. Murillo is much closer to Cy Twombly..
Booooooooorrrrrriiiiinnnggg.......
Stop and pause and let us see what you are pointing at...
Nothing stands out in this collection. Lots of derivative bits and pieces, territory already well-explored. Throw MoMA from the Train!
Wow this about the worst crap I've ever seen in one exhibit.
