Today I stumbled across “The art show that believes there is life outside the galleries.” I found the show on iTunes. It is a show out of Australia and currently there are 3 episodes available for download. Each show is 30 minutes long. The host Marcus Westbury takes his camera out to look for art from the “outside.”
The first episode covers a new cultural center in Newcastle Australia that is in the works, but artists in the town wonder why all the attention is paid to a big culture center when there is already culture happening in Newcastle. Why spend all that money to create a place to bring in art and culture when the city already has art and culture. Maybe money should be poured into Newcastle’s present art and culture scene. There are some good questions raised.
