Unexpected Legends: Arneson Eggheads and Arts at UC Davis - Part 1

UC Davis is commemorating the 30th anniversary of the campus' iconic Egghead sculptures in 2024. As part of the celebration, this documentary tells the tale of the UC Davis art department — from its founding artists to the present faculty and students who follow in the founders' footsteps. The first-generation artists built their community in the ceramics building known as TB 9, or Temporary Building 9, and ignited an art revolution. Part one of the three-part series looks at the cultural upheaval pervading the U.S. in the 1970s and its influence on the art faculty and students. Stay tuned for part two about founding artist Robert Arneson's legendary legacy and his distinctive Egghead sculptures — the beloved symbols of UC Davis.
