New Reality Series: American Artist

Bravo has announced its developing American Artist, the working title of a new reality competition series for aspiring artists that is produced by the Sex and the City star and her Pretty Matches production company.”

Each episode of American Artist will follow contestants as they compete in art-themed challenges -- such as painting and photography or sculpting and industrial design -- that are designed to stretch their preferred mediums.” Reality TV World 7/21/08

I don’t watch much reality TV outside of the “Cops” style shows, but I may have to tune in to see an episode or two of this one.

You just know they’re going to probably serve up all of the art stereotypes: The brooding artist, the starving artist, the tortured artist, the misunderstood artist, etc. In other words, the most quirky artists they can find. Still, it may be fun to watch and I believe this would be the first show to focus this aspect of art.
