Reception


Metacritic, a review aggregator, rated the film 36/100 based on four reviews. Joe Weissberg of Variety wrote, "Future art historians may use Joe Swanberg's latest to illustrate the paucity of ideas and means in the 2010s." Neil Genzlinger of The New York Times called the premise "tediously obvious". Michelle Orange of The Village Voice complimented the lighting and mood, which she said do not make up for the lack of story or character development.
Richard Brody of The New Yorker wrote that detractors who compare it to Ingmar Bergman's Persona miss the point, though Brody says Swanberg's images are "of a kind" to those Bergman shot in the 1950s and 1960s. Erik Kohn of Indiewire described it as "essentially Swanberg's version of Zack and Miri Make a Porno, and, within the larger context of his career, just as inconsequential". Jesse Cataldo of Slant Magazine rated it 3/4 stars and wrote, "Art History stands out as one of his most visually and conceptually accomplished experiments." Christopher Bourne of Twitch Film called it "a complex and unsettling examination of the creative process" and its psychological pressures.
