Fame There has always been fame. In any human group or society throughout history someone somewhere has become famous for something. "Fame" explores the concept of 20th century fame and infamy. It examines how the perquisites of fame have changed over the course of a hundred years; how we still hold on to our old-style heroes in Andy Warhol's world of 15-minute fame. "Fame" is presented in thematic sections which include personalities form cinema, music, society and politics.
Obsession From the way we look to the way we dress, "Obsession" traces our growing fascination with the human body over the last 100 years. From cosmetic - make-up and adornment, dress and undress - to the fundamental - the exciting, fast moving program examines man's great obsession with himself. In a century where our ability to remanipulate and alter the body we are born with has never been greater, we expose the truth behind the body beautiful.
In a century where the greatest attention has been reserved for the most important body of all - our own - "Obsession" looks back at the diversity and beauty of mankind as it has been exposed to the all-seeing eye of the 20th century, the camera.
