Art21 proudly presents an artist segment, featuring Mary Heilmann, from the "Fantasy" episode in Season 5 of the "Art in the Twenty-First Century" series.
"Fantasy" premiered in October 2009 on PBS.
Mary Heilmann relays youthful fantasies of wanting to be a Catholic martyr, her childhood dream to become an artist, as well as the antagonism she experienced in school when transitioning from pottery to painting. Shown completing a new body of work, the segment begins in the artist’s secluded Bridgehampton studio on Long Island.
