(HD, TVPG, English)

56 minutes “Forge”



"Forge" profiles exceptional artists who are working in what may

be the only tangible example of "alchemy" we have - the forging

of metal magically transformed by fire. Follow young Chloe Darke

as she begins her career as a silversmith at Old Newbury Crafters;

Iraqi war veterans Tom Pullin and Jeremiah Holland as they turn

to art as an antidote to the harsh realities of war; and Albert

Paley, master metal sculptor, who uses knowledge from his 50-year

career to build monumental artworks for New York City's Park Avenue.
