In this series of six art documentaries, fronted by supermodel, actress and Cambridge Arts graduate, Lily Cole, we gain access to some of today’s most revered and successful contemporary artists.
In the name of Art; Lily navigates the desert with ‘wrap’ artist Christo, learns the art of boomerang throwing with Mexican artist Gabriel Orozco, models for a nude portrait for contemporary artist Fiona Banner, has a drawing lesson with the sculptor, Antony Gormley, touches down in Monaco for Marc Quinn’s latest exhibition and paints pictures with the doyenne of celluloid film, Tacita Dean. These intimate portraits of artists at home and at play show a side to them rarely seen before.
