The beautiful escape of Terry Notary

Anger, anxiety, and happiness are embodied in Terry Notary's ape-like performance as Oleg, the ape-impersonating artist in Ruben Östlund's art-world satire, The Square. In this film directed by Naomi Itkes and Annika Aschberg, the character visits The Beautiful Escape exhibition at CFHILL Art Space in Stockholm. The film /"addresses the controversial concept of self-awareness and what happens when the viewer sees the work of art./"
