Today on Leonard Lopate at Large, Peter Campus, Cristin Tierney and Noam M. Elcott discuss the rise of video art, and what role Peter has played in its transformation to one of the major artistic disciplines of our time.
Born in 1937 in New York City, Peter Campus is a seminal artist in the fields of new media and video art.
Peter’s work is a part of the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum, the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Tate Modern. In his recent digital video work, he transforms footage of landscapes and interiors into painterly scenes, using sophisticated digital techniques.
