"Imagined Wests" with the Autry Museum of the American West

Friday, November 12, 2021 7:00 AM | Anonymous

PBS aired "Imagined Wests" on Wednesday, November 10th. The hour-long documentary, which is part of the "Artbound" series, focuses on the Autry's "Spirits of the West" mural and their efforts to recontextualize it (and the museum) in light of changing interpretations of the American West. The program also places the Autry's challenges within broader discussions of monuments and civic memory. The documentary is archived on the PBS website and can be viewed here: https://www.pbs.org/video/imagined-wests-tnaggs/
