American Revolutionaries on Ovation

The end of July closes out Ovation TV’s American Revolutionaries event.  If you haven’t checked it out yet I highly recommend doing so if you get a chance.

They’re onto something there, and have moved mountains since relaunching in June. After all, they’re the only national television network dedicated to the arts and personal creativity.  They’ve built a multimedia community around a mission to inspire and connect, and have made that community accessible to amateur and professional alike.

Here are just a few of the artists featured this week:

Monet
Matisse
Picasso
Martha Graham
Sylvia Plath
Margot Fonteyn
John Cale
and many more

Eye Rhymes purports to be the first book to examine Plath’s visual art and to “gauge that art in relation to her heralded literary career,” and it does feature artworks of hers that have never been published before. But mostly, it’s another look at Sylvia Plath’s development as a poet. via Bookslut's Plathophilia: Rereading Sylvia

(This is part of a much larger theory of mine about the new role of curatorship, the big job of the next century.)" - Brian Eno via Kevin Kelly
