Exclusive Episode #056: Artist Richard Tuttle installs the work "Ten Kinds of Memory and Memory Itself" (1973) at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. Richard Tuttle commonly refers to his art as drawing rather than sculpture, emphasizing the diminutive scale and idea-based nature of his work. He subverts the conventions of modernist sculptural practice by creating small, eccentrically playful objects in decidedly humble materials. Influences on his work include calligraphy, architecture, and poetry. Learn more about Richard Tuttle: http://www.art21.org/artists/richard-tuttle VIDEO | Producer: Wesley Miller and Nick Ravich.
