Thomas P. Campbell, Director and CEO of The Metropolitan Museum of
Art, announced today the launch of a new online video series, The Artist
Project, in which 100 artists respond to works from The Met’s vast
collection, which spans more than five millennia and cultures throughout
the world. Beginning March 2015, for one year, the Met will invite 100
artists—local, national, and global—to choose individual works of art or
galleries that spark their imaginations. In this online series, artists
reflect on what art is, what inspires them from across 5,000 years of
art, and in so doing, they reveal the power of a museum and The Met.
Their unique and passionate ways of seeing and experiencing art
encourage all museum visitors to look in a personal way.

Over
the course of five seasons, The Artist Project will share the
perspectives of one hundred artists with the public, telling us what
they see when they look at The Met.
