Not Quite Art

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

I’m a bit slow to get around to watching this, but the second series of Not Quite Art has been broadcast on ABC1. The show features various artists working outside of the mainstream art world, and how they are getting a global audience. Series 1 & 2 are available for download on the ABC’s website.

Here’s hoping the ABC commission a third season!
