I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the esteemed curator, author, and expert in photography, Madga Keany. Currently the Head Curator of International Art at the National Gallery of Art, Canberra, Magda was most recently Curator at the National Portrait Gallery, Canberra, and before that, Senior Curator, Photographs at the National Portrait Gallery London, where she lead the realisation of a major re-presentation of the Photographs Collection as part of the museum's rehaul. Keany has curated shows and published texts on Australian art, design and social history, photography that ranges from the Victorian period to fashion, conflict and portraiture, solo presentations of portraits by Irving Penn, among many others. She has written for the groundbreaking Know My Name project, that put women artists in Australia on a global stage as well as for Cindy Sherman, A World History of Women Photographers, and more. …but it was her exhibition last year that really grabbed my attention: Francesca Woodman and Julia Margaret Cameron: Portraits to Dream in', that brought together the two photographers working 100 years apart, from very different worlds, circumstances and contexts, but which showed how these pioneering women shaped the medium, with their dreamlike pictures imbued with beauty, symbolism, classicism, transformation and more… So today, I couldn't be more excited to delve into the life of the 19th century photographer, Julia Margaret Cameron, who, aged 49 in 1863, picked up a camera and, largely self-taught, crafted her distinct bohemian style pictures with that hazy sepia glow, that proved to not only be influential in Victorian Britain, but have a huge impact on photography at large. As Cameron once said: “My aspirations are to ennoble Photography and to secure for it the character and uses of High Art by combining the real & Ideal & sacrificing nothing of Truth by all possible devotion to poetry and beauty.” And I can't wait to find out more.

In the 40th episode of our "Reading the Art World" podcast, Megan Fox Kelly speaks with the Guggenheim's Megan Fontanella, Curator of Modern Art and Provenance, about her beautifully researched book "Gabriele Münter: Contours of a World," published by Guggenheim Museum Publications, distributed by Artbook DAP.Our conversation reveals the life and art of Gabriele Münter, a pioneering German Expressionist whose bold use of color and form helped define early modernism—yet whose place in art history has long been understated. Fontanella traces Münter's path from her early photographic work during travels in the United States (1898-1900) to her vibrant paintings that reimagined landscape, still life, and portraiture through radical simplification and expressive color.We discuss Münter's role as cofounder of Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), the influential collective that included Vasily Kandinsky and other progressive artists who pushed the expressive potential of color and symbolic form. Fontanella shows how Münter developed her distinctive visual language—one that sought to "convey an essence" rather than imitate reality—offering a lyrical alternative to the pure abstraction that dominated much of early Modernism.One of the most compelling parts of our conversation addresses Münter's actions during World War II, when she hid major works by herself and other Blue Rider artists in the basement of her home in Murnau, Germany, protecting them from Nazi confiscation. This act of quiet courage preserved a vital chapter of modern art history. Fontanella reflects on how women artists of Münter's generation have been systematically undervalued, and how recent scholarship is finally restoring Münter to her place in the modernist canon.For anyone interested in German Expressionism, the recovery of women artists' legacies, or the collaborative networks that shaped the early 20th-century avant-garde, this episode offers essential insights into an artist whose vision continues to inspire—and whose work deserves far greater recognition.ABOUT THE AUTHORMegan Fontanella is Curator of Modern Art and Provenance at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. She is recognized as an expert in provenance research with a focus on World War II spoliation issues. Fontanella graduated from Dartmouth College with a BA in art history and received her MA from the Courtauld Institute of Art, London, where she specialized in late 19th-century French art.ABOUT THE EXHIBITION"Gabriele Münter: Contours of a World" is on view at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, from November 7, 2025 through April 26, 2026. The exhibition presents over fifty paintings across three Tower galleries, alongside nineteen photographs Münter captured during her extended stay in the United States.

Wat waren bepalende momenten in het leven van de ondernemers achter de snelst groeiende bedrijven van Nederland? En wat hebben ze daarvan geleerd? Elfanie toe Laer ontrafelt de verhalen voor de FD Gazellen-podcast Het Moment. In deze aflevering hoor je het verhaal van Jeroen Schellekens, oprichter van Legent, een adviesbureau dat vermogen beschermd van ondernemingen, zélfs bij faillissement. Dat is niet zomaar. Jeroen begint zijn ondernemers-carrière bij het gevelbouwbedrijf van zijn vader. Al van kinds af aan was duidelijk: op een dag zou hij het bedrijf overnemen. En zo geschiede. Zeven jaar lang staat hij aan het roer van dit familiebedrijf. Maar op een dag de grootste angst van iedere ondernemer voor hem werkelijkheid wordt. Op dinsdag 31 mei 2011 gaat het familiebedrijf, dat al sinds 1979 bestond, failliet...

Deep down, I think we all know that history matters. Yet for many of us, the way we learned it in school made it feel distant and inaccessible. It was out of context — abstract, detached from real people and real lives. But when we recall a story from the past centered on an individual, something shifts. Suddenly, we're interested. The details stop feeling like a "history lesson" and become a human story — something that happened to someone. We lean in, curious, engaged, wanting to know more. Paula Richter, curator of the Salem Witch Trials 1692 exhibit at the Peabody Essex Museum, brings that human element to life. She not only personalizes the experiences of both the accusers and the accused, but also models a powerful way of thinking: that learning new perspectives matters. Evaluating information through a fresh lens can broaden our understanding and reshape our views. Recognizing that every story is influenced by countless factors — circumstances, relationships, and individual choices — helps us feel more connected to one another and to reality itself. By exploring the Salem Witch Trials more deeply, I've come to realize that we're learning about far more than the late 1600s in what would become the United States. Gaining a clearer sense of what life was like then, how events unfolded, and how people responded in the aftermath reminds me that nothing is ever purely black and white. Living in the gray gives me more space for compassion, curiosity, and acceptance. Make no mistake: this episode focuses on the facts of the Salem Witch Trials as they're currently understood. There was no intention to make it about anything else. Yet what I took away from this conversation — and from this entire series — has truly shaped me into a better version of myself. Listen in as Paula helps us uncover more about the individuals at the heart of the Salem Witch Trials — the accused, the accusers, the murdered, their neighbors, ministers, and government officials. They were all real people, and we talk about all of them. We also explore how we know so much about this period, and how our understanding of history continues to evolve as historians discover more and technology advances. Listen in now!

Sof had a kōrero with Director and Curator of Contemporary Art at Gus Fisher Gallery Lisa Beauchamp about their current group exhibition, What we choose to remember. And Maya caught up with artist Eva During about her current show on at The Arts House Trust at Pah Homestead, Under The Bridge.
What we choose to remember is a group show bringing together artists Hiria Anderson-Mita, Köken Ergun, Tada Hengsapkul, and Kulimoe'anga Stone Maka, currently showing at Gus Fisher Gallery. Together, through their respective practices and materiality, the artists question and inquire into ideas of nation building and national identities – each contemplating different histories of the respective geographical and political landscapes they connect to, questioning the way we remember these pivotal moments. With a plurality in voices, the space invites a reflection on the multiplicity of experience, but also the closeness of these respective accounts. As a whole, the exhibition asks us to reflect on these narratives and connect them back to our present – if this is how these moments in history have been remembered, how will we remember our present when it too becomes history? Sof had a kōrero with Director and Curator of Contemporary Art at Gus Fisher Gallery, Lisa Beauchamp, about the show, the artists' works, and the thematic conceptions that bind them.

Lisa Burke on Today Radio explores timeless lessons from the philosopher emperor at Trier's state exhibition with Dr Viola Skiba and Helena Huber.

This collaborative showcase invites visitors to explore one of Rome's most fascinating figures: the Philosopher Emperor whose reflections on Stoicism and virtue continue to inspire thinkers, leaders, and citizens nearly two thousand years later. In this episode Lisa Burke speaks with Dr. Viola Skiba, Director of the Stadtmuseum Simeonstift, and Helena Huber, Curator at the Rheinisches Landesmuseum Trier. Together, they unpack the meaning of good governance: what makes a good leader? And for whom? This is a question as urgent today as it was in the Roman Empire. “Marcus Aurelius is remembered as the ‘good emperor',” explains Huber. “But his reign was far from peaceful. His stoic philosophy guided him through wars, plague, and political turmoil — and it still offers lessons for ethical leadership today.” Dr. Skiba adds: “The question of good governance is universal and timeless. From antiquity to our modern democracies, people have always asked: what makes a good ruler, and for whom?” The exhibition is divided between the two museums. The Landesmuseum explores Marcus Aurelius: Emperor, Commander, Philosopher, combining archaeological treasures with philosophical interpretation. The Stadtmuseum complements this with What Is Good Government? Here, they examine ideals of leadership, justice, and representation through history including striking medieval imagery where kings symbolically kissed or even shared a bed to show peace and trust to their people. Beyond the exhibition's intellectual richness, visitors can immerse themselves in Trier's extraordinary Roman heritage: the Porta Nigra, vast thermal baths, and some of Europe's most important mosaics. As Huber puts it, “The Romans left us their Instagram of the time; images and monuments showing how they wanted to be remembered.” For today's audiences, Marcus Aurelius is more than a historical figure. His Meditations, a private diary of self-discipline, justice, and humility, continue to offer a mirror for leadership and citizenship in the 21st century. “Peace, justice, prosperity and the common good: these are still the foundations of what we all seek,” says Skiba. “Marcus Aurelius helps us remember that good governance begins with virtue.” https://www.trier-info.de/en/package-offers/marc-aurel-2025

Meet KyleI'm passionate about how we gather. And I'm here to bring change to those spaces!Conferences have become over-produced. Offsites are glorified meetings. And men's retreats often miss the mark; either too shallow or too scripted. We're here to change that. We believe a powerful connection happens when people are given space to think, challenge themselves physically, and step into environments that strip away the noise.Our experiences are intentionally designed to do just that.Every fire we build, every trail we hike, every challenge we introduce…it's all crafted to create clarity, trust, and perspective. We don't rely on gimmicks or glossy production. We believe in earned moments. In letting the environment, the effort, and the group do what they were built to do.This isn't just about escaping.It's about returning with something better. We guide people - men, teams, leaders - through experiences that help them see differently, lead differently, and live more deliberately. The world doesn't need more content. It needs more character. And we're building it, one unforgettable experience at a time.Learn more about Kyle and "Guys Trips" here: https://www.kyledepiesse.com/guys-tripDon't forget to download our FREE LinkedIn Post Templates For High Impact Posts here:https://www.thetimetogrow.com/ecsposttemplates
For the episode we're continuing our conversation with Rick Hester, Amy Shilze and Lucy Butler. Rick is the Curator of Behavioral Husbandry for the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado. He oversees all the zoo's behavioral programming. His work includes the zoo's animal training for husbandry, medical, and public show behaviors, enrichment, developing programs to improve problem behavior situations, the zoo's formal animal welfare assessments, and exhibit design for behavior goals. We're also joined by Amy Schilze, who has the dream job of working with the Cheyenne Mountain zoo's giraffe. Amy is the Senior Animal Behaviorist for Cheyenne Mountain Zoo's International Center for the Care and Conservation of Giraffe, where she runs giraffe workshops and conferences, both stateside and internationally. Both Rick and Amy also partner with Dr. Susan Friedman and her Behavior Works consulting team so you'll hear a lot of references to Susan throughout this conversation. In addition to Rick and Amy, I invited Lucy Butler to join us. Lucy and her husband run the River Haven Animal Sanctuary in Rhode Island. I knew she would have a lot of questions for Rick and Amy. When you take in animals who are the victims of abuse, there's a lot to be learned from the work that goes on in zoos to reduce the stress of handling and also to improve the overall quality of life for the animals under their care. In this episode Rick and Amy talk about the educational programs which are woven into the experience Guests have as they tour the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. There are twenty-three shows for the public every day. In these shows the animals are the star. It is about showing what they can do, what their natural behaviors are - all while protecting the dignity of the animals. The shows at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo show animals controlling their reinforcers and using their bodies in ways that are natural to them. Trainers interpret both what their life in the zoo looks like, what their life in the wild environment looks like, and how capable they are of learning. They are trying to create connections between the public and the animals at the zoo in a way that elevates the animal. For Lucy this part of the conversation was especially relevant because the public is invited in to tour the River Haven Animal Sanctuary that she and her husband run. She was getting many great ideas for how they can make this experience better both for their guests and their resident animals. But even if you don't give tours, there's much here that can be used to enrich your horse's life. We begin the episode with a discussion of techniques used to introduce new animals into an existing social group.

On Part 2 of Season 12, Episode 47 of Next on the Tee, I'm joined by David Moore, Curator of Collections at Oakmont Country Club and Co-Author of Battling the Church Pews: The History of Golf's Premier Events in Western Pennsylvania. David takes us inside Oakmont's history and heritage, reflecting on this year's U.S. Open, how the course handled the rain, and why its challenge remains the ultimate test of skill and mental toughness. He also shares incredible stories about Ben Hogan's 1953 Triple Crown season, Arnold Palmer's legacy, and the 1975 Ryder Cup at Laurel Valley. It's a fascinating look at golf's golden history and the pride of Western Pennsylvania — from the fairways of Oakmont to the spirit of the King himself.

Equivalently, it's about the intentional idiom --the well-knit fabric of terms that we use to characterize persons. Human beings are usually persons (a brain-dead human might be considered a human but not a person). However, there may be persons, in various senses, that are not human beings. Much recent discussion has focused on hypothetical computer-robots and on actual nonhuman great apes. The discussion here is naturalistic, which is to say that count and accountability are, at least initially, presumed to be naturally well-knit with the possession of a cognitive and affective life.This episode wouldn't have been possible without the help of our incredible production team:Patrick Gallagher - Producer & Co-HostJerry Li - Co-HostNoah Olberding - Associate Producer, Audio & Video Editor https://www.linkedin.com/in/noah-olberding/Dan Overheim - Audio Engineer, Dan's also an avid 3D printer - https://www.bnd3d.com/Ellie Coggins Angus - Copywriter, Check out her other work at https://elliecoggins.com/about/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What happens when the last in a line of viscounts has only one child - a daughter - but the family's ancestral seat is entailed to the male line (meaning it'll go to a distant cousin)? This was the dilemma facing Charles, 9th Viscount Fairfax, in the mid-18th century...The answer (for Lord Fairfax, at least) was to purchase a prime site in the centre of the ancient cathedral city of York, and to commission the best architect in Yorkshire - the famous John Carr of York - to design an exquisite Georgian townhouse for Lord Fairfax's daughter, Ann.On this week's podcast episode - the third instalment in our series looking at the houses shortlisted for this year's Historic Houses Association Collections Award (sponsored by Dreweatts) - Geoff meets with Sarah Burnage, Curator of Fairfax House, which is now open to the public and houses and exceptional collection of Georgian furniture, clocks, glass and porcelain.Please join us for a fascinating glimpse of what high-life city living in the 18th century was like!

On this week's episode of Next on the Tee, I'm joined by three incredible guests who bring stories, insights, and passion for the game from very different perspectives. We kick things off with three-time PGA Tour winner and short game guru Kenny Knox. Kenny captured titles at the 1986 Honda Classic, the 1987 Hardee's Golf Classic, and the 1990 Buick Southern Open. He also set a putting record at the 1989 Heritage Classic — just 8 putts for 9 holes, 18 for the round, and 93 for the entire tournament! Kenny and I dive into why the European Ryder Cup team consistently putts lights out, why he believes Bethpage was poorly setup for the Americans, and who he thinks should be the next U.S. Captain. We also revisit some of the grueling conditions he faced during his Tour wins and what it took to grind out victories under pressure. Next, I'm joined by Darren Davis, longtime Superintendent at Olde Florida Golf Club in Naples, Florida. Darren came highly recommended by my great friend Tom Wildenhaus, the club's Director of Instruction — and when Wildy says “you need to talk to this guy,” you listen. Darren studied Agronomy at Penn State, completed an apprenticeship at Augusta National, and has been leading course operations at Olde Florida for an incredible 33 years. He shares what it's like to maintain world-class course conditions while facing the challenges of South Florida weather — from extreme heat to afternoon storms — and how his team has recovered from devastating hurricanes over the years. Darren's stories of resilience, leadership, and love for the game are truly inspiring. It's a fantastic mix of Tour-level insight, behind-the-scenes expertise, and heartfelt storytelling that reminds us why we all love this game. Be sure to come back for Part 2 of the episode featuring my conversation with David Moore, Oakmont's Curator of Collections and Co-Author of Battling the Church Pews, The History of Golf's Premier Events in Western Pennsylvania.

In addition to Rick and Amy, I invited Lucy Butler to join us. Lucy and her husband run the River Haven Animal Sanctuary in Rhode Island. I knew she would have a lot of questions for Rick and Amy. When you take in animals who are the victims of abuse, there's a lot to be learned from the work that goes on in zoos to reduce the stress of handling and also to improve the overall quality of life for the animals under their care. In this episode Rick and Amy introduce the concept of freeing up the operant: what that means and how that impacts the implementation of enrichment opportunities for the animals under their care. This episode is rich with ideas for providing more enrichment for our horses.

For the episode we're heading to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo for a conversation with Rick Hester, Amy Schilz and Lucy Butler. Rick is the Curator of Behavioral Husbandry for the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado. He oversees all the zoo's behavioral programming.

In addition to Rick and Amy, I invited Lucy Butler to join us. Lucy and her husband run the River Haven Animal Sanctuary in Rhode Island. I knew she would have a lot of questions for Rick and Amy. When you take in animals who are the victims of abuse, there's a lot to be learned from the work that goes on in zoos to reduce the stress of handling and also to improve the overall quality of life for the animals under their care. In this episode Rick and Amy talk about fine-tuning what a “no response” looks like and what handlers should do when they see the first signs of an animal saying “no”. As they fine tuned their understanding of “no” responses, they were actually describing an operationalized behavior that is “yes”. What does it look like for an animal to say “yes” Assent is a behavior the learner performs and continues to perform that lets us know we can continue. When they stop performing that behavior, assent is withdrawn, so we have to withdraw. This is the process that the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo trainers follow. Relief is readily available to the animal learners. Across species in a system where relief is abundantly available and there are strong reinforcers at a high rate for opting in, most animals opt in more and opt out less. After Rick and Amy describe the training that they are doing at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, we switch the focus to horse training. Letting horses opt out runs counter to traditional horse training methods. But certainly we know that horses also opt in more when they have the option of saying “no”. This episode also includes an announcement for my new book: “Never Get A Wizard Mad At You”: Book One in the Upstairs Armadillo Series.
