Apollo's Gift: An Art History of the Moon Landing with Peter Kalb

Art historian Peter Kalb discusses creative endeavors inspired by the Apollo Program in 1972. The lunar adventure that was a source of such confusion and doubt provoked painters, sculptors, photographers and performers to create Apollonian art that makes good on the promise that with space exploration humanity would have a complex tool for encountering difference; reflecting on human aspirations, opportunities and limits; and building future worlds.
