Who Gets to Call it Art? (DVD)

The 1960s art scene was a hive of creative activity, and Henry Geldzahler, the first curator of contemporary art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, was a pivotal figure around which the movement revolved. This documentary takes a look at his life and work. His influential exhibit titled New York Painting and Sculpture: 1940-1970 comes under particular scrutiny, as it contained 400 works by artists with whom Geldzahler was particularly enamored.
