Artist Jasper Johns on Kanopy

Two Jasper Johns exhibits open this weekend. Mind/Mirror opens this weekend at The Whitney Museum in NYC and also at The Philadelphia Museum of Art. With two full programs reviewers recommend seeing both collections (through February at The Whitney). Before you go, the library’s Kanopy database has several films about the artist you can stream using your library card. Take advantage of the free service by creating a Kanopy account. There is an hour-long documentary about Johns as well as “Decoy – An Artist Re-imagines his Past Work” (19 minutes), and “Jasper Johns: Take an Object – Portrait of an Artist at Work” (26 minutes). After viewing on Kanopy you can be a well-informed visitor to the exhibits!
