Today is Slow Art Day, which is a day in which we are encouraged to celebrate art by going to a museum taking our time to truly appreciate what we’re seeing. This also seems like the perfect day to select Jane Zhang’s Dust My Shoulders Off for our music video of the day!
The video features Zhang at a museum, literally becoming a part of 11 different paintings. Over the course of the video, the following paintings are recreated:
Nighthawks by Edward Hopper
Self Portrait by Vincent Van Gogh
The Gleaners by Jean-François Millet
Meisje met de parel by Johannes Vermeer
Christina’s World by Andrew Wyeth
Un dimanche après-midi à l’Île de la Grande Jatte by Georges Seurat
The Scream by Edvard Munch
The Temptation of St. Anthony by Salvador Dalí
Ascending and Descending by M.C. Escher
The Son of Man by René Magritte
Enjoy!
