SCREEN DEATHS: VISITATION

The new installation “Screen Deaths: Visitation” at the Pasadena Museum of California Art questions the narcotic emotional escapism of movies, as well as the unreal notions about living and dying as adopted by popular culture.

Los Angeles-based artist Dane Picard brings together a multitude of “screen deaths” within the installation. Picard creates a consciously constructed database of responses to the natural condition of death.
