Artemisia, Mingus, Ninjas

Studio 360 | Jan 11, 2011

Studio 360 seeks revenge. Kurt Andersen and the writer Laura Blumenfeld look at vengeance, one of the most passionate themes in art and in life. A painting serves as an act of retribution for the 17^th-century artist Artemisia Gentilleschi. Children's literature isn't as innocent as you think. Payback shapes the music of jazz legend Charles Mingus. And, in Design for the Real World, a designer finds inspiration in store mannequins.
