Artzine - Catco's "The Pillowman"; Timeline Magazine
Artzine
 
 
 
Get ready for controversy as CatCo presents Martin McDonagh's award winning play, The Pillowman - a dark comedy about a gruesome crime and unjust punishment. But it's also about (as the New York Times wrote) the "thrilling narrative potential of theater itself." Watch as the actors, director, and crew bring this story to reality and how they cope on stage and off, with the psychological complexities and our human instinct to continually invent fantasies.

Go behind the scenes of The Ohio Historical Society's Timeline Magazine, as it prepares to celebrate its 25th anniversary. This nationally recognized magazine has been a delightful way to get an in depth understanding of history and we document the process from conception to print.

Meet Somali-born photographer Abdi Roble who has been documenting the forced dispersal of the Somali population from their homeland and are represented by a significant population here in Columbus. The Columbus Museum of Art presents his newest collection and we follow him as he prepares for the exhibition that promises to have world-wide impact.

And, get to know Edmund Kuehn, a Columbus native who has been painting for over 70 years. He's done it all - former teacher and assistant director of the Columbus Gallery of Fine Arts (now the Columbus Museum of Art) and now a widely recognized master, Kuehn is one of the founding fathers of the Columbus art world. We talk to him about his career and how his home town provides continued inspiration for his work.

Plus, find out how the Greater Columbus Arts Council gets artists into schools to teach everything from the accordion to African dance.
