This documentary series searches the proceess and the purpose of design arts at a very high level. It also cares about the people and artists it portrays, often digging into their personal lives. The subject matter and how they are portayed and explored are always impactful and worthwhile. The themes are applicable in the very minutae of the specific art sphere explored, bur also philosophic, personal, profound and open-ended to be applicable in life and daily thoughts.

After 2 seasons, Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi's 2 episodes and showrunner Morgan Neville's 3 episodes are stellar, but even a lesser episode is of high quality and insight. Learn about Architecture and Bio-Architecture and how Typecast is much more complicated than you probably think. What is Design FOR play and how can that possibly change our future? Watch Abstract: the Art of Design and with your family and friends to find lots to discuss and discover.

It is fascinating to see this sort of focus applied to the creation of what we might otherwise take for granted, and appreciate not just the art, but the artist behind this work.

I wish I saw these masterminds and master-do'ers when I was 10..11..14

Talking series: visuals, narrative, sound... it's great.

Oh my the content!!! I'm especially blown away by Neri Oxman and Bjarke Ingels. People I did not know and truly amaze!

This is educational material for philosophical classes, biology, technical classes, psychology, sociology or to impress 10 year old kids and possibly make a life changing imprint. It shows assertiveness, motivational power, creativity and connectivity

WOOOOOW

The ephemeral nature of the beauty we try to copy vs the lasting impression of experiencing the flow state of creative expression is the endearing and intriguing subject matter, one that the producers explore with varying levels of success.

The first one in the series is my personal favorite for the sheer brilliance of solving the impasse between the interests of toy manufacturers and the urgent need for gender neutral toys.

Highly recommended viewing.

anyone who loves art, or an art student, or an artist has to watch this series... 8 different artists way of thinking, way of living... and how they do and describe their art... a fantastic 6 hours full with art and love and passion... be sure you will not regret... just watch it... and make your kids watch it also...
