Best, The

Product Description

This program juxtaposes historical figures against one another to determine who is ‘The Best.’ Norman Rockwell as a visionary, plumbing the depths of our collective unconscious, is matched against Keane, the portrait painter of people with large saucer-like eyes. The work of Christo, the environmental artist, is compared to the Exxon Valdez oil spill. Pol Pot is measured against Charles Manson. William Reich’s Orgone Box is compared to the songs of Barry Manilow, and Jimmy Swaggart is juxtaposed against Jim and Tammy Faye Baker.
