Art

De: Yasmina Reza, Christopher Hampton

Narrado por: Bob Balaban, Brian Cox, Brian Perry

How much would you pay for a painting with nothing on it? Would it be art? Marc's best friend Serge has just bought a very expensive - and very white - painting. To Marc, the painting is a joke, and as battle lines are drawn, old friends use it to settle scores. A Tony Award winner for Best Play and an Olivier Award winner for Best Comedy.©2009 L.A.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A nonstop cross-fire of crackling language [and] serious issues of life and art...sounds like a marriage of Molière and Woody Allen." ( Newsweek)

A play about a painting that works as an audiobook

This audiobook is all about a piece of art. One man bought it and his two friends (and the purchaser himself) talk about it. And argue about it. And each other. It's a brilliant commentary on modern art, art culture and consumption. The actors are well cast, creating fully founded characters to life with flair and skill. Their monologues carry the action along without being annoying or distracting. Buy this audiobook for some sophisticated (and some unsophistcated) laughs about art and modern culture.

Makes you laugh and think at the same time.

Would you listen to Art again? Why?

I listen to this play frequently, it makes me laugh each time. Great for stressed times.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

The actors are amazing, and in the original play they change roles frequently, so you never no if this combination is the best of all...

Wonderful Words for Men to hear

Having seen ART produced in both London and New York, I was excited to find the play on Audible. The three characters in the play are wonderfully played by these actors and I enjoyed it so much I listened to it twice on two consecutive days. Yasmina Reza has captured the feelings men have for each other in a way no other author has. She helps us explore, topics like, marriage, children, friendships, truth and of course ART. I loved this!

Art Review

I read the play in high school. Hearing it helped me view it from a new perspective. The cast was well chosen.

Read Seneca!

I have loved this story since I first saw it performed on Broadway by Alan Alda, Victor Garber and Alfred Molina. I was fortunate to see it 12 times on Broadway.

This recording brought back so many fond memories.

This is a story of friendship and its ups and downs, problems, misunderstandings and forgivings.
