Goldsmiths: This is Modern Art (TRAILER)
Goldsmiths has produced six Turner prize winners in its illustrious history, notably Damien Hirst. But what lies behind the famous institution’s unrivalled reputation for producing the artistic stars of the future?
This new two-part documentary follows a group of Goldsmiths artists as they struggle to create art and make a name for themselves during the run-up to their final masters’ show, a showcase at which dealers and collectors jostle to sign the latest sensation.
These programmes follow the artists in the vital months following graduation as they take their first steps into professional careers, exploring the culture of contemporary art through the ambitions, influences and attitudes of the next generation of young British artists.
All are desperate to create the kind of work that will propel them to centre stage in the art world, but only a select few will succeed.

Zaha Hadid [ http://www.zaha-hadid.com/ ] has drawn walls that plough the space delineating fields of strength with fluid trajectories that cross the space, and there are the same intersection to define the circle among inside and outside. The structure has a complex and irregular form that corresponds to an inside articulation without clean division of plans and spaces: a composite environment characteristic from a high-level of functional flexibility in which the light plays a remarkable role in fact a coverage in glass floods of natural light all the spaces. We don’t find us of forehead to a journey to effect, but to an experience of trip in a complex net of connections and runs that through bridges and staircases they bring us “long” the three levels of the structure without ever returning on our footsteps and always discovering new roads. An architecture that opens a tear in the circuit of the time and they forces every of us to change our point of view, that is something that belongs much more to the cinema that to the architecture and the multiplicity of the visions, when everything is confuses and then everything returns clear, as in a film.
