    Artists off the Beaten Path

    Gregory Colbert, the filmmaker and photographer currently exhibiting his ongoing project Ashes and Snow, joins us in the studio today. Ashes and Snow was premiered in Italy in 2002, ten years after his last exhibition. Focusing on the profundity of the relationship between human beings and animals, Ashes and Snow is being taken around the world in the Nomadic Museum – a portable gallery for Colbert’s work. Also: Russell Sherman, a brilliant pianist and probing musician and teacher, usually has an original take on any work he plays. But he's always charted a career slightly off the beaten virtuoso path. Find out why as he joins us in advance of his 75th birthday.
