The Statue of Liberty is one of the world’s greatest icons, appearing in countless movies, photographs, souvenirs and comics.

It’s easy to feel like she has always been there, towering over New York Harbour. Yet Liberty is a relatively modern construction, built by French ideas and manufacturing ingenuity.

The story of her construction offers a lot to consider about innovation, determination and of course, freedom.

This is the fourth and final episode in our series about the relationship between Art and Work.

We’re going back in time to 1972, learning how to SEE with John Berger. His four-part BBC series called Ways of Seeing challenged the art history establishment and still today is a classic with relevance for our own image-saturated times.

Through the power of looking, noticing and thinking about what we see, we retain the power to THINK and make connections, dig deeper and experience insights that can spark our own ability to act.

This is the third episode in our series about the relationship between Art and Work.

We’re rediscovering Hilma af Klint, a Swedish painter and visionary who is now widely acknowledged as the world’s first modern abstract artist.

Af Klint once wrote, “I am an atom in the universe that has access to infinite possibilities...and it is these possibilities I want, gradually, to reveal.”

Her story, struggles and ultimate triumph in a 2018 show at the Guggenheim reveal to us the importance of Vision, Context, Courage and Community.
