Art Index TV is an interview-style television show that aired on PBS, 2010 - 2013 that engages key players who inform the business and practice of contemporary art. Art Index TV examines the process behind this product and looks closely at exactly what makes it tick. With Host Joy Glidden, Art Index TV places contemporary art in context, demystifies and illuminates its creative process, and articulates the ways in which it impacts our culture at large. Each half hour episode features interviews that combine artists, gallerists, curators, museum directors and other art professionals and presents two to three video art pieces that bring the art experience directly to the TV viewer.
Contemporary Art is a prominent practice that defines one of the West’s perimeters in the construction of societal expression. It can influence social justice and continually comments on our philosophical state of governance. Art engages our society and acts as a barometer for the breath of our life in the time it is made and beyond.
