Visual arts don’t often make an appearance on television, but PBS has a four-part series starting tonight that may be of interest. The series goes into the artist’s studio, including “interviews that reveal how 17 noted artists think, work and respond to the world around them.” The series is divided into segments on romance, protest, ecology, and paradox. “Also, she lets artist and art take center stage, with narrative in their words alone. There are no talking heads or experts and no questions, just answers. Biographical information is inserted in various ways, but doesn’t drag down the individual stores.”
When:
Tonight @ 10pm MST, with the three other episodes on consecutive Sundays after.
Where: PBS (Channel 6 here in Fort Collins, Comcast)

Is it worth checking out the additional episodes?

I’m sorry to say that even though I wrote this post on the day of the first show, I still managed to forget to record or watch it. Dang it! I’ll try to catch the other episodes though.
