Last of a three-part series looking at modern culture. Me/rose Space
In 1995, the Los Angeles
Museum of Contemporary Art commissioned artist Mel Chin to find a new arena for modem work.
Seeing television as the most public space there is in late
20th-century life, Chin, together with a group of artists called the Gala Committee, began incorporating new pieces of art into the set of leading American soap opera Melrose Place.
Chin and the members of Gala describe the aims of the project and reveal how their art has appeared in the soap. Plus actors and members of the production team discussing the impact the work of the artists has had on the programme.
