About The Paradox of Stillness 

Can a sculpture dance? Can a painting come to life? Through works that bring together objects, movement, or the living body,  explores the intersections between performance and visual art. The presentation features artworks by successive generations of artists who test the boundaries between stillness and motion, mortality and time.

Continually evolving, the exhibition showcases performances or movement-based pieces, which are highlighted here in a series of short videos. Due to this continuous activity, the experience of the show is never the same from day to day. The Walker Art Center invites you to return to witness and engage with its evolution over time.
