Us & Them, Von Trier, MacHomer

Studio 360 | Jan 11, 2011

Kurt Andersen and the literary scholar Azar Nafisi explore how the rest of the world sees America and its art. Fifty international artists offer their take on the U.S. at the Whitney Museum. Danish director Lars von Trier explains why he makes movies about America, even though he’s never set foot here. And the show looks back to 1893, when Czech composer Antonin Dvorak captured the sound of America.
