About Paul Tschinkel

ART/new york, a video series on contemporary art, was begun in 1979 by Paul Tschinkel, founder and executive producer. This unique and extensive series focuses on the visual arts and brings art, artists and exhibitions to a broad public interested in the major developments on the New York art scene. Over the last 30 years, ART/new york has covered major exhibitions and artists who have defined and shaped the diverse and exciting directions in contemporary art. Each program features visits to galleries, museums, artist's studios and includes revealing interviews with artists as well as the perspective views of critics, curators and dealers.
PAUL TSCHINKEL's INNER-TUBE was a NYC Cable program that also featured music from NYC clubs like CBGBs, Max's Kansas City, The Mudd Club and more. It predated and was imitated by MTV. Seen on this weekly program, which ran from 1979 to 1984, were emerging bands that defined and celebrated a generation of music makers and music lovers.
