PBS Launches Expanded Arts Website
ArtDaily.org, 8/24/10

"PBS President and CEO Paula A. Kerger announced [August 24] the launch of PBS Arts, a new website that offers Americans the opportunity to experience the arts and explore the creative process through special virtual exhibits, videos from PBS national and local programs and interactive features. The website is part of PBS’ ongoing commitment to strengthen public engagement in all forms of artistic expression and performance—in front of the camera and behind the scenes—and to bring more of the arts into the lives of millions of Americans. PBS Arts’ initial offerings include four concurrent virtual exhibitions, including 'Ruin and Revival,' which features works from the 'Storm Cycle' collection by New Orleans-based artist Thomas Mann. In this exhibition, Mann commemorates the city’s ongoing recovery and renovation, and celebrates its resilience. Producers from the PBS series Craft in America filmed Mann in and around New Orleans at locations that inspired his sculptural works."
