Art in Bloom with Helen Dealtry

Covering the ancient world through the age of technology, this illustrated lecture by Eugen Weber presents a tapestry of political and social events woven with many strands — religion, industry, agriculture, demography, government, economics, and art. A visual feast of over 2,700 images from the Metropolitan Museum of Art portrays key events that shaped the development of Western thought, culture, and tradition.

Diverse architectural styles in vibrant Nashville present the canvas for sisters Alana and Lex LeBlanc, who help clients transform homes they've outgrown into hot properties that can fetch top dollar. "Everyone dreams of finding that perfect place to call home," Alana says. "But not everyone can afford their dream home until they've sold a house that no longer suits their needs." So the ladies compare neighborhood home prices and craft the best resale plan for the homeowner's current property. Then, with a goal of selling high and getting clients the dollars they need to purchase their new home, the sisters and their crew tackle whole home renovation projects that include moving walls, adding fresh paint and accessorizing.

The cemetery, for all its creepiness and mystery, is actually a fascinating place to uncover incredible art, surprising architectural finds, and a rich and varied history. In this provocative and edgy series, we travel from Paris to New Orleans, New York to London, Hollywood and beyond exploring some of the world’s most interesting and visually compelling cemeteries. We uncover fascinating, often scandalous, tales of the graveyard’s residents, plus curious angles, quirky traits, and, first and foremost- artistic appeal.

« For over twenty years we have filmed at night in the most important museums in the world. It's the only possible time to film the empty halls or the precious artifacts out of the windows because there are no visitors. But at night the Museum changes face. Just you in front of the masterpieces in the silence. The Museum seems to show and offer you its treasures in an atmosphere of intimacy. I always wanted to transmit and give this atmosphere that I breathed to viewers. » (Alberto Angela)

Using a plethora of studies from anthropology, psychology and neuroscience, the film tries to demystify the way we use our brains to create, to make art and science. The products of our minds are extraordinary, but the process in which they are brought about are in fact, quite ordinary. Shakespeare copied. Mozart copied. Picasso copied too.
