Art:21 a non-profit attempting to bring contemporary artists and art into the forefront of a broader audience. They have joined with PBS to produce documentaries that explores contemporary visual Art and Artists in the United States. Each season of art:21 is short, 4 or 5 episodes, but brilliant. The episodes have a theme -Identity, Play, Power, Time, etc.- which are explored in context with 4 or 5 contemporary Masters. What makes this show so unique and powerful is that the artists are still alive. This isn’t a dry, celebrity voice-over filled, what were the artists thinking and feeling show. The artists themselves talk and explain in their own words the importance of the episode’s theme to their work, their process of thinking and their lives. Having lived in a bumble for going on six years, I didn’t know about this show. But I’m glad I found it.
