About This Movie
The NEW Shock of the New revisits the ideas laid down by Robert Hughes in his original series, diving into the contemporary art scene with a critical eye. It’s a fascinating reflection on how art evolves—or maybe recycles—over decades. Hughes has this way of weaving a narrative that feels both personal and expansive, grappling with notions of originality and shock value in today’s context. The pacing meanders a bit, but it suits the contemplative nature of the subject matter. The documentary captures not just the visuals of the art but also the provocative discussions surrounding it. A real treat for anyone interested in how art keeps pushing boundaries, or maybe just reshaping them.
Great for art history enthusiastsInteresting comparison to Hughes' original seriesThought-provoking discussions on modern art
