Hello,
On behalf of the team, I would like to warmly invite you to join us this
evening (7 PM ET / 4 PM PT) for our weekly free and interactive tour. This
week it’s: #072 Considering Art: Considering ‘Beauty’ | Public Broadcasting.
What is beauty?
With so many tropes, characterizations, fallacies, and assumptions of what
constitutes "beauty" in art and indeed in the world, one could be left to
wonder if the word is even usefully definable.
In 1936, the National Alliance of Art and Industry and the Harmon
Foundation commissioned an instructional film titled We Are All Artists to
attempt yet another answer to this question.
Together, in viewing this film and giving regard to its impact on a viewing
public in contemporary times, we consider - and problematize - for
ourselves the aesthetic questions that continue to challenge and inform our
faculties of perception.
In this tour, we embark on some critical viewing.
Together we ask: What do you see?
