This week on Artworks, We’ll conclude our two-part retrospective of the best stories, features, and interviews heard on Artworks in 2010.
You’ll hear conversations with a variety of musicians from members of the Canadian Brass, to ambient musician Jeff Pearce, and world-renown percussionist Evelyn Glennie.
Then step inside the doors of Indiana University’s African American Arts Institute, and visit with two visual artists whose works blur the borders of gender and dominance.
And we’ll highlight a sculpture at the heart of the IU-Bloomington campus.
