Art:21 Season 4 Begins 10/28!

Art:21 is a series on PBS that spotlights artists and their work in the world today. Each episode has a theme (such as Power or Humor) and the artists' works in that episode kind of fit into that theme.

I use this series in my classes a lot and can't wait to see the new season! More than the educational value, though, is the entertainment value -- it's just a well put-together, documentary-style investigation into what's going on in the art world today. The new seasons themes include: Romance, Protest, Ecology, and Paradox. Visit the Art: 21 website for more info, including artist lists by episode.

Thanks to Craig Roland for the heads-up.
