World Views: The Globalization of Sport, Ghislain d�Humières on Trends in International Art (Jul 18, 2011)
With Darren Clarke winning The Open Championship Sunday, the last six champions of golf's Major tournaments have been international players.  The 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup also wrapped up Sunday as Japan defeated the United States on a final series of penalty kicks.  Zach Messitte, Suzette Grillot, and Joshua Landis talk about soccer, tennis, and golf's growing international appeal, and how technology allows athletic competition to transcend geographic and political borders.

And the director of the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art Ghislain d’Humières joins the panel for a conversation on the globalization and internationalization of art, and how commodification affects what kind of art is created.
