Playing it Cool

We used to think of artists working with paint and brush, or stone and chisel. But the new generation are using radical new methods and tools to produce art. (1969)

We used to think of artists working with paint and brush, or stone and chisel. But the new generation is just as likely to use plastic and spray gun, or iron girder and oxy-acetylene lamp. And some artists have their work processed in factories, or even programmed for computers.

The programme features Victor Pasmore, Josef Albers, Richard Arthur Wollheim, Joe Tilson, Anthony Caro, Victor Vasarely, Phillip King, Bridget Riley, S茅rgio de Camargo plus Bryan Robertson and David Sylvester. (1969)
