Have you seen the BBC series "The Power of Art"?
Simon Schama, The Power of Art (2006), 8 episodes on Netflix DVD.
I’ve been watching the series, 6 out of 8 episodes so far, and found it quite fascinating and well done. The commentary strikes me as quite brilliant in places, although I did have to get used to the host’s speech mannerisms.
But something about it, maybe the rather sensationalistic treatment of the artists’ biographical material, is putting me off a bit. I’m very aware of the hand of the video editor, and that’s a big factor.
Does anyone else have a reaction to or comments on this series?
