One segment we didn't get to talk a lot about this week (because many of you didn't see it) was the piece about the Hampton art community. As a long-time viewer of the show, I recognized one of the artists they mentioned, Chuck Close, as an artist that Sunday Morning has been interviewing periodically over the last 20 years. Unfortunately, I was unable to find the video that showed how his art has changed over the years. I thought his story was particularly inspiring because at age 49 Close became a quadriplegic. But despite this tragedy, he was able to find a way to adapt and continue to his work, creating the photorealism approach for which he is perhaps most famous. Eary this past summer, Sunday Morning presented a montage of Close interviews from before his illness to the present day. In fact, this was one of the segments that convinced me the show would make a great class. If you'd like to see Close at work, you can check out this brief video from the Sunday Morning catalogue: Close at Work. And, if you are interested in seeing more examples of his work, you can visit his gallery on Artnet: Close Gallery.
