Revenge, Charles Mingus, Ninjas

Studio 360

Kurt Andersen and writer Laura Blumenfeld look at one of the most passionate themes in art and in life: revenge. We’ll look at revenge in the 17th-century paintings of Artemisia Gentileschi, children’s books, and in the figure of “the angry man of Jazz” — Charles Mingus. And, in Design for the Real World, we fall for a store mannequin.
