Editorial Reviews

This Emmy-nominated collection contains the first, second, third, fourth & fifth seasons of PBS' acclaimed documentary series, Art:21 (Art in the Twenty-First Century). At approx 1150 minutes total run time on 4 DVDs, it's nearly 20 hours of art ecstasy! In it we take a look into the future at how art will be changing people's lives in the 21st Century. This innovative series combines the sometimes incongruous media of television and art to explore the nature of creativity in the early-21st century. Hosted by a rotating roster of celebrity guests, the series travels the globe to profile a broad range of emerging and established men and women of varied cultural, religious, and geographic backgrounds. Among the artists featured in this series are painters, photographers, sculptors, and performance and video artists who use a wide variety of media and materials, technical innovation, tools and processes, and experimentation to create their work. Each one-hour program has been loosely structured around a broad category or theme to help audiences compare and contrast the artists profiled.
