I found it very interesting recently that the art world is merging into some of the mainstrream media, where it has not done before.
The new show on Channel 4 "The Big Art Project" is something of a rarity.It seems quite strange to me that there can be a series focusing on art to breach amedia source that concentrates on an audience that is stereotypically opposed to the notion.
Most shows on the TV station are; cookery, comedy, film and documentary (mainly health).So it is therefore interesting to see how a morally different program will farewhen put in the hands of an unfamiliar audience.
What i do like about the program is that it is focusing on the very issues that we are discussing at the moment,namely how the public reacts with artwork. They explore speciallymade sculpture trails and assertain what effect the pieces of public work have over everyday lives and what the public really enjoy, aesthetically. No dout it will be intriguing to discover the results as it could enlighten a great many practices within the current art domain.
