Yep, David Hockney is 75 and still making things! His latest piece, The Jugglers, is a video composition of 18 screens in which a dozen skilled performers, deep in concentration, perform for nine whole minutes, at times dropping their pins and cracking a smile here and there (they are human after all). Just studying the movement of each kinetic performer––their level of control over both their bodies and their respective inanimate objects––can cause you to fall into a "how do they actually do it?"-stupor. Catch it through September 1, 2013. Image courtesy Hockney Pictures and Pace Gallery
