5.0 out of 5 stars Be Inspired and Amazed!, November 4, 2009

This review is from: Art 21: Season 5 (DVD)

Length:: 0:41 Mins

Hearing the numerous internationally recognized artists' ideas and inspirations is extremely moving and motivational. Watching this film will broaden your artistic mind and give you the craving to be creative in a variety of ways. It also gives insight into the artists' complex, talented lives. This film just goes to show that artists come in all different shapes and sizes. If you love traveling, exploration and have appreciation for art, I strongly recommend "Art 21: Art in the Twenty-First Century, Season V." Let's travel the continents together to explore the behind to scenes of who brings art to life!

I use this series in my high school classroom and for my own art inspiration. Excellent, just be sure to preview it before you show it to the kids.

This review is from: Art 21: Season 5 (DVD)

Every DVD from this series has been great. I find I go back to them when I'm stuck in some way. It is like having the best artists drop by your studio to talk about what they are doing. Season 5 as the most current, makes it important to dive into, but I also think it has several of the most important artists from the very end of the 20th Century who point the way to the 21st, and all these artists continue to break new ground. For those who are not artists, but love art, this is a doorway to understanding where art is going next.
