The Art of the Real Reel 1 · Part 2
Description
This film describes the "Art of the Real" exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. The film explains that Americans have a concern for their culture, and that the culture is real and moving, not stagnant; that, though sometimes controversial, new forms of expression are permanent and more than just a fad; and that the art as it is expressed is ahead of its time — and more alive than in most other countries.
