In 2013, the curators at the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Northwest Arkansas set out to create a diverse exhibition featuring artists from across the United States. For 10 months, they scoured the country with the goal of bringing contemporary art back to life and showcasing works of art that might otherwise go unseen.
After an exhilarating national journey of artistic discovery, 100 under-recognized American artists were selected for one unforgettable exhibition. “State of the Art," a one-hour documentary, captures the personal stories of seven diverse artists from Crystal Bridges’ groundbreaking exhibit who are redefining the American aesthetic.
