The series provides unparalleled access to the most innovative artists of our time, revealing how artists engage the culture around them and how art allows viewers to see the world in new ways. The artists' lives and works engage universal experiences that anyone can relate to: resistance, pleasure, mortality, and the hope for a better tomorrow.

For the first time in the show’s history, the sixteen featured artists are grouped into four one-hour episodes by their unique and revealing relationships to the places in which they live—Chicago, Los Angeles, Mexico City, and Vancouver.

I'm so excited for this new season! From the trailer, it seems like they've totally revamped the whole production of the show, and I can't wait to watch. It will be interesting to see this city-based approach to choosing artists, and would love to see more global groupings in the future. Props to you, ART21!
