Arte Povera was introduced in Italy during the period of upheaval in the 1960s, promoting the notion of a revolutionary art, free of convention, the power of structure, and the market place.

That training will include a series of four live and interactive video sessions on topics including: best practices for storytelling and interviewing, technical tips and tricks, and the art of covering political conventions.
