I love getting to see living artists seeing their work on display and getting to talk about it. When I was a kid I thought all fine artists were dead and never really understood why I should care about their work, but as an adult I can follow and see the greats of our time and it's really invigorating. IDK if anybody from the museum reads the comments on these videos 4 years on from their release, but it'd be really cool to see a season 3

For living artists, MOMA should tape them explaining each of their art pieces and what they thought about creating them for posterity.

I thought that was Spielberg at first, especially when the other man shakes his hand and says he is Steven as well.
