Who Arted: Weekly Art History for All Ages

This is sort of the finale for season 3. I will be taking a short break but will continue releasing episodes on my regular schedule. I will be running some encore presentations for a few weeks, but I will continue to release new mini-episodes so it won't be all re-runs. The Friday mini-episodes will largely focus on artworks from the AP Art History list as at this time of year a lot of students are working to prep for the test and I want to do my part to help provide them with resources to the extent that I can. After six weeks and thousands of votes cast, we have narrowed the field from 64 great artists to 1 ultimate Arts Madness champion. I read a few statements on why people chose this artist, followed by an encore presentation of the episode about this artist. Thank you all for participating in the tournament and I hope it helped you discover some new artists to inspire you. Who ARTed is an Airwave Media Podcast.As always you can find images of the work being discussed at www.WhoARTedPodcast.comConnect with me: Website Twitter Instagram TiktokSupport the show: Merch from TeePublic Buy me a coffee Learn more about your ad choices.

For this week's episode, I was joined by Kelly Henrikson, art teacher at Park Junior High, to talk about Ivan Albright. Ivan Albright is considered to be a great macabre painter. He is known for his portraits and still lives that have a sense of rot showing the frailty of life. His style is considered magical realism. He meticulously rendered portraits that were unlike anything else in his day. In this episode, we discussed the painting he created for the film adaptation of Oscar Wilde's Picture of Dorian Gray. The Picture of Dorian Gray is housed at The Art Institute of ChicagoWho ARTed is an Airwave Media Podcast.As always you can find images of the work being discussed at www.WhoARTedPodcast.comConnect with me: Website Twitter Instagram TiktokSupport the show: Merch from TeePublic Buy me a coffee Learn more about your ad choices.
