Five Madison arts organizations have come together to present community screenings of the Peabody Award–winning biennial series "Art:21—Art in the Twenty-First Century."
"Art:21" is the only prime-time national television program focused exclusively on contemporary art.
Season 5 features the episodes Compassion, Fantasy, Transformation, and Systems.
During October, the Chazen Museum of Art, along with Madison Museum of Contemporary Art (MMoCA), and Wisconsin Academy’s James Watrous Gallery, in conjunction with the Madison Arts Commission and Overture Center for the Arts, will screen all four hour-long episodes. Contemporary arts experts will lead open discussions following the screenings.
These community events offer art lovers accessible and social occasions to learn about and discuss the works, insights, and methods of contemporary artists.
The schedule is available here.
