Американское искусство, Art of America Серия 3 Заглянуть в глубь, Painting the People

In Levittown, he uncovers the dark side of postwar consumerism and the role artists have played in challenging the status quo. He visits New York s Metropolitan Museum to see the most subversive artwork of 1950s America, Jasper Johns s White Flag, examines Andy Warhol s soup can paintings and interviews one of the last surviving pop artists, James Rosenquist. In Los Angeles, he looks at the graphic style of Ed Ruscha and the city s unique contribution to 20th century design Googie architecture. Back east, Andrew visits the home of the late Philip Guston to get a private view of his work, and Jeff Koons s studio to learn how the enfant terrible of contemporary art continues to challenge the boundaries of taste. Finally, he explores the impact 9, 11 has had on America and how a new generation of artists, such as Matthew Day Jackson, have made sense of this tragic event.
