Video-rich website The Creative Lives documents the work, experiences, and observations of the people behind the contemporary art of a generation.
Each Monday, the site unveils a feature on a new artist, some of whom double as art dealers and curators. There’s always a short film, supplemented by Super 8 outtakes, press clippings, exhibition views, the artists’ websites, and more. Like a tech-savvy update on Vasari’s 16th-century biographical tract Lives of the Artists, this material comes straight from the source.
Watch all the Creative Lives films with extra features, visit the site’s Vimeo page, read the mission statement, and check out some of Creative Lives producer G. Lewis Heslet’s personal filmmaking.

really good…
I need that inspiration today thanks
@Mark Dean Veca, I enjoyed your video and your art. Instead of doing just sections that can be removed, why not have the entirety of your piece removable so that it can be saved, stored and reconfigured elsewhere at any other time? You could create your work on textile or other hard surface and not have to sacrifice it entirely. My congratulations to you and your team, it’s really saying something big, something wonderful!
Thanks, AJ. I’ve tried that; it just doesn’t work for me.
