Abstract: The Art Of Design, an eight-episode documentary series on Netflix focussing on artists and their creative process, chooses its creators loosely and inclusively. It is a fascinating peek into the creative process, into the discipline it requires to identify actual inspiration and to then seize on it. The show is visually gorgeous, with imaginative cinematography and flow that, from episode to episode, differs dramatically in order to most appropriately capture its subject. The creative process is a beautiful but bewildering one, and, as the show explains, an inherently lonely one. Ava DuVernay’s brilliant 13th is streaming on Netflix and I recommend you swiftly move it to the front of your watchlist.
