ArtCurious is one of my absolute favorite art podcasts. Jennifer Dasal does a deep dive into the research for all her subjects but presents the information that is easy for even me to follow. When I was studying for my exam to become a National Board Certified Teacher, I listened to a lot of ArtCurious to brush up on history I had forgotten and discovered tons of cool stuff I never knew. In fact she even had an entire season dedicated to the coolest artists you've probably never heard of, or maybe

Herb Williams | The Ultimate Crayons Artist

Who Arted: Weekly Art History for All Ages ·

2023/03/10

For this week's #funfactfriday mini episode I wanted to share a bit about Herb Williams. Williams is based out of Nashville, TN and he is working with crayons on a level I have never seen from anyone else. He makes jaw dropping sculptures that are not only beautiful to look at, but the choice of crayon makes the work engage multiple senses as the unmistakable scent of crayons draws people in. I first shared this story on my other podcast, Art Smart. If you want to listen to my crayon episode or

Pierre-Auguste Renoir | Luncheon of the Boating Party

Who Arted: Weekly Art History for All Ages ·

2023/03/06

Today, Renoir is remembered as one of the greatest painters of the Impressionist movement. His paintings are soft and delicate, but his life and his work was a painful struggle. Most painters pride themselves on their ability to work with their hands. They spend years practicing, developing fine motor skills and muscle memory to easily render a beautiful image, but Renoir’s hands weren’t on board with the plan. As his son Jean recounted “Visitors who were unprepared for this could not take their

2023/03/03

In 1778, Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun met Marie Antoinette at the Royal palace in Versailles. The queen had heard of Le Brun’s talent and asked to paint her portrait. Marie Antoinette loved the way Le Brun painted her and from that point on, she was pretty much her official royal portrait painter. Le Brun painted 30 portraits of the queen. Almost as quickly as her star rose, her fortunes changed. In 1789, Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun was forced to flee France in a disguise and under the cover of darkness

George Lucas is responsible for some of the most popular films of all time. Early in his career, he began working on a script for a science fiction story following the hero's journey as outlined by the anthropologist, Joseph Campbell. His film series, Star Wars was not only a commercial success, it was a remarkable technical achievement. Lucas and his crew needed to invent new methods in order to tell the story as he imagined it.

The specific work we looked at in this episode is Streetcar from 1951. It is one of many mobiles Calder created over his career.

In this portrait, Andy Warhol presented Marilyn Monroe in the format typically associated with religious artworks. This work was created just a few weeks after Monroe’s untimely death and it seems like a pop art shrine. Hers was a face that graced the pages of every magazine and tabloid. She was a young girl, Norma Jean who had been plucked from obscurity and celebrated around the world for her beauty, but outside of public view, she struggled with her mental health, failed relationships and

Henri Matisse was born in Northern France on December 31, 1869. His father was a successful grain merchant.

Shigeru Miyamoto has developed some of the most popular games of all time including Mario which is the most successful game franchise ever. Mario has actually been in 250 videogames and The Super Mario Brothers movie was the first major motion picture ever made based on a videogame. Well maybe that one was a little regrettable, but I’m sure the next Mario movie will be great. Interestingly though, Miyamoto’s big break came largely by accident.

Rene Magritte's painting, Son of Man, is among the most famous images of the Surrealist Movement. It is one of the few artworks that transcends the museum and has become a part of pop culture. Actually technically it isn’t even in the museums. Son of Man is privately owned and rarely seen on public display, but it has been referenced in books, movies like Stranger than Fiction and The Thomas Crown Affair, tv shows like The Simpsons, music videos by the likes of Michael Jackson.

A few years later she began studying at Denishawn School of Dancing and Related Arts founded by Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn. In 1922, she danced in a silent film that tried to synchronize the live sound with the film.

2023/02/17

Robert Rauschenberg came on the scene in the 1940s and made a name for himself with the idea of the combine. He not only blurred the lines, he eliminated the distinctions between media as he combined painting and sculpture. Later, in the 1950s he began making plain white paintings, but in 1953, he came up with an idea for something more revolutionary and even more empty than a plain white canvas.

Norman Rockwell

2023/02/16

Norman Rockwell was an incredible artist. He was not always respected as an illustrator, but his nostalgic images of small town America were incredibly popular as they graced the covers of the Saturday Evening Post. His Four Freedoms series was particularly popular. Initially the work was rejected by the US government when Rockwell pitched the series, but after seeing the final works and how popular the posters were in the post, the US ordered 2.5 million copies.
