The Mel Chin segment on Art21 is one of the few that I ever really enjoyed and felt provoked to think by. Mostly that show seems too straightforward factual, too didactic in tone while presenting little information of real value and makes the artists seem to quirky and disconnected from real life. Chin’s is the opposite on all counts. Its light and watchable but intelligent.
I guess that might be a tribute to him.
