In this episode, we conclude our nine-part series on contemporary art that was inspired by Ossian Ward’s book Ways of Looking. Looking back, are the works of contemporary art more valuable than they seemed to us at first? And if not, why does the art world prize these works so highly? Artworks discussed include James Turrell’s Dividing the Light. (Intro: Traveling in Your Mind (edited) by Loyalty Freak Music, from The Free Music Archive, CC0 1.0 Universal License.
