Demystifying The Art World In 'Playing To The Gallery'

Demystifying The Art World In 'Playing To The Gallery' Have you ever stared at a piece of art and thought, I just don't get it? Artist Grayson Perry gives NPR's Rachel Martin the answers to questions about art that some are too embarrassed to ask.
