Everyday in New York, thousands of museum guards help protect some of the world’s most acclaimed art. But what most people don’t know is that many of those museum guards are artists themselves. After putting on a full shift guarding the most expensive art in the world, they moonlight in their homes, or in shared studio spaces, trying to break into the art world with their own creativity. “Osmosis” is a short documentary that paints a picture of the two sides of these people’s lives and explores how museum guards and artists clash, merge, and feed off of each other in our subjects. The film - produced by New York based creative collective Gentle Cowboys, directed by Nick Sokoloff, and edited by Cut+Run’s Stacy Peterson - features real guards/artists from several of New York’s most prominent museums such as the MET, Guggenheim, Noguchi, and the Brooklyn Museum. The film was shot within the walls of the MET, the Noguchi, and inside these guards/artists' homes, shared work spaces, basements…and wherever else they make art. Along with the three-minute piece, the collective is also organizing the first ever art exhibit featuring only museum guards/artists. The show takes place at ArtCake gallery, in Brooklyn, from Nov 10 to Nov 13 and features 15 museum guards/artists from all of New York's most prominent museums.
