Black Swans: Episode 3

Are all curators failed television presenters? Are all artists failed celebrities? Are all TV-quizzes intrinsically absurd? Is contemporary art a failed joke? The second episode of Sideshow's own art-themed game-show, Black Swans, hosted by Duncan Allen. Taking inspiration from every TV quiz show under the sun, from Blankety Blank to Pat Sharpe's Fun House through Shooting Stars, Black Swans is be filmed before a live studio audience, hold regular team captains and reoccurring rounds; all designed to deconstruct the game-show format and celebrate the quirks and curiosities of contemporary art.
