On view now in our Time-based Media Gallery 🎥 Camille Henrot’s Grosse Fatigue takes on the history of the universe in just over thirteen minutes of fast-paced video. With pulsing beats and a poetic voiceover blending a wide range of origin myths with concepts from science and philosophy, the artist creates a hybrid narrative of creation from sources as disparate as Buddhism, Christianity, Kabbalah, and Diné belief structures. Cascading through countless computer windows featuring made and found footage, the video exemplifies its titular “extreme fatigue” through the sheer quantity and variety of visual information presented on a single computer desktop, an apt metaphor for the deluge of unfiltered information available in our digital present

Naomi Grossman, Summer Art Camp Student Intern, recounts her time working with the young artists who attended our Art Camp: "The students took away a lot of creativity and new skills in art-making, which felt very special to be a part of! I learned a lot about lesson planning and how to tie it into art history. I also felt very supported by the staff, and I will really miss this experience!” Read more about Naomi's Art Camp internship at https://news.iu.edu/eskenazimuseum/live/news/52844-a-look-back-at-art-camp-2026
