    This is one of my absolute favourite YT channels. I wish we had these sort of craft schools in England. Alas, don't know of any, although there were some in the Edwardian period up to about the '30's. Thank you for such pure delight and inspiration.

    I love that this series has a leisurely pace, allowing each artist or collector time to fully explain their perspective and share meaningful information. Wonderful contrast to the evening news and most television, which works at a frantic pace with brief sound bites.

    My brain is all abuzz with all kinds of ideas after seeing this episode.
    Really loved the focus on Black Mt College which I'd never heard of before. In historic Europe, cafe culture served as that important linkage of artists and artisans of different types co-mingling ideas that happened at Black Mountain. I was hungry for this history and want to see more! Thank you.

    What a brilliant episode on American Avantgarde movement. Did not know about the connection with the Black Mountain College at all even though I was familiar with the famous names like Josef Albers, Buckminster Fuller, John Cage, Merce Cunningham, de Kooning, Rauschenberg and Larsen. Kay Sekimachi is a genius of a fibre artist.

    Watching this documentary I realized all the artists were living and studying in the best of places.
    Those were the good old days and they didn't even know it. Or did they.

      Ah, when I was coming up we knew of these all artists. We knew we stood on their shoulders. Sometimes in person. John Cage came to my college to give a performance, and work with us. In my little home town I apprenticed with Nancy Jurs, Wendell Castle's wife, and got to watch and learn from them both. Later, as a teacher, I was lucky to bring Karen Karnes to my college to talk with my students. I can't imagine such perceptive and brilliant people never reflected on how they got to where they did....

    Visionaries! I have known a lot of artists, and most claim to have bold and unique perspectives on art and life. As many of the comments here indicate, most tend to be conformists, with a standard progressive viewpoint and agenda. I believe Thomas Sowell said it best when he commented, "The next time some academics tell you how important diversity is, ask how many Republicans there are in their sociology department".

      How true that is, but they are a passing generation. Old guard moves on and hopefully there will be another generation to step in. We can learn so much from them, and build on the info.

      yes. things are changing. We are part of the dialogue now. That's something to celebrate. And celebrate the trailblazers such as in this episode who were treated as window dressing to their husbands at the time. We See them now....

      Yes, I find that a real downside to this series. So many talented Black artists, women artists who are ignored to feature white men. I liked the textile video because it actually featured more artists of colour & women artists.
