Excerpts from interviews and slide presentations with Voulkos provide a narrative framework for understanding the background, history and philosophy of this remarkable man. Artists, students and lay people alike will derive a living appreciation of this greatest of "mudders," an acknowledged giant of modern art at the peak of his luminous career.
