Herb and Dorothy is a 2008 documentary film by Megumi Sasaki, says Wikipedia.
The film tells the story of two middle-class collectors of contemporary art, Herbert and Dorothy Vogel, and the enormous and valuable collection of conceptual art and minimalist art they amassed.[2]
Many artists are interviewed in the film, including Christo, Chuck Close, Robert Mangold, and Pat Steir.

Once called graffiti, the term today is Street Art
We have 3 street artists on the fine arts agenda this week:
- Shepard Fairey, a former skater and RISD grad.
- Banksy, the secretive British master of the witty stencil. He has travelled globally to paste up his visual meditations. Even to New Orleans.
- JR, the artist. This anonymous French photographer has been internationally lauded for his aid to developing nations and slums via his photo-based street art.
