Actor, painter and writer James Franco has partnered with arts TV channel Ovation for his own show, titled James Franco Presents, set to air later this year.

The show is to focus on Franco's 'explorations of the world of art', featuring footage from his personal video library, including video diaries and documentary footage. Franco commented 'It is an art show that is an art piece, meaning the show has synched with the rhythms of my life and work... I am thrilled to work with Ovation, a network that has devoted itself to the arts'.
