Andrée Ruellan video

In 2005, the Georgia Museum of Art hosted an exhibition -- Andrée Ruellan at 100 -- and created a simple documentary about the artist.

The DVD version has just recently been placed for all to view at Google Video. (It's pretty good except for the narrator.) Here is the embedded version:
