Art21 proudly presents an artist segment, featuring Martin Puryear, from the "Time" episode in Season 2 of the "Art in the Twenty-First Century" series.
"Time" premiered in September 2003 on PBS.
Martin Puryear’s respect for age-old techniques and his knowledge of woodworking, masonry and non-western crafts are essential to the archetypal forms he creates. The artist tapped his carpentry skills to create “Ladder for Booker T. Washington,” a sculptural country ladder reaching 36 feet into the air.
Martin Puryear was born in Washington, DC, in 1941. Learn more about the artist at: https://art21.org/artist/martin-puryear/
