Review of Public Art in Indianapolis - with comments by Meryl Streep

This piece focuses on a new piece of public art unveiled in Indianopolis. Via a press conference and short interviews participates -- Don Gummer the architect, city officials, art lovers and Don's wife actress Meryl Streep -- the piece covers a little of the history of the piece and why it is important.
There was a unique style in this piece. The reporter mostly introduced speakers and then let them speak. There were few edits, and probably should have been more to tighten it up. There were some good thoughts about public art and why it is important. Thoughts as, not-quite-an-art-lover, I hadn't had before.
Since this piece focuses on art, a station with a show on art might find it interesting. It's also local to Indianapolis and might find some legs there. Overall it's mostly about the unveilingly and therefore someone timely to that event.
