The Art and Science of Preserving the Watts Towers
Clip: Season 3 Episode 4 | 16m 56s
Watts Towers don't necessarily fit the bill for a standard definition of art.
Deemed outsider art, folk art, and other similarly nondescript and fluid labels, the Watts Towers do not necessarily fit the bill for a standard definition or understanding of art. But no matter what they are called, the Towers remain a cultural jewel of Los Angeles. And within the cracks and structure of these Towers lies an unfolding story and scientific mystery of sorts.
