The Art of Conversation

The World

The Guggenheim Museum’s walls are bare at the moment to make room for a piece by conceptual artist Tino Sehgal called “This Progress.” Kurt talks with Sehgal about the work: a series of four improvised conversations the visitor experiences along the building’s famous circular ramp, including one with a child no older than twelve. Produced by Studio 360’s Michele Siegel.
