Art
Bold, inspiring stories that reveal how art sparks connection and transforms lives worldwide.
My Memory-Walls
"My Memory Walls" is a short portrait of Rose G. Lévesque, an almost nonagenarian painter and poet who painted the story of her life on her house's walls to transform it into a museum.
ABEL
Abel Berumen, an accomplished Mexican-American photographer, woke up blind one day as a result of a rare disease. This film reflects on the paradox of his disability: how his loss of vision has enabled him to truly see.
Portraits
In a world increasingly obsessed with the speed and precision of artificial intelligence, a portrait artist offers a quiet and profound reflection on what it means to create.
Eterni: The Last Marble Sculptors
For centuries, marble from Carrara, Italy, inspired history's greatest sculptors. Today, the tradition of hand-carving stone is fading, threatened by technology. Now, a small group of artists must preserve the craft and carry it into the future.
Body of Work
Introducing artist Eric Anfinson, who was critically injured at 16 and went on to achieve success as an artist, creating a body of work of over 700 paintings.
A Short Documentary About A Giant Pencil
Two Minneapolis homeowners and a chainsaw sculptor shape meaning (and a 20-foot-tall pencil) from the twisted trunk of a fallen oak tree. But this pencil isn't meant to last. Every year, thousands gather to sacrifice a part of the pencil in a sharpening ceremony, and in the process, renew the collective promise to "do something."
