Misha Glenny and guests discuss the French portrait painter Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun (1755 - 1842). From her teens she delighted her high society subjects in and around Paris, notably Marie Antoinette who she painted around 30 times, and she invariably found ways to show her sitters at their best. Some critics were affronted that she, a young woman, dared paint at all and, when they saw how good her portraits were, some spread a rumour that surely this could not really be her work and she must have had a secret male lover finishing her portraits in a studio. The French Revolution forced Vigée Le Brun out of France and so she set off from one European court to another to find more success from Naples to Vienna to St Petersburg and to London, eventually settling back in France. Today her works are on show in major galleries around the world.WithRosalind Polly Blakesley Master of Pembroke College and Professor of Russian and European Art at the University of CambridgeRobert Wenley Deputy Director of Collections and Research at the Barber Institute of Fine Arts, University of BirminghamAnd Francesca Whitlum-Cooper Curator of Later Italian, Spanish and French Paintings at The National Gallery, London.Producer: Simon TillotsonReading list:Joseph Baillio, Katharine Baetjer and Paul Lang (eds), Vigée Le Brun (exhibition catalogue in English, Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2016)Joseph Baillio et al., Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun: 1755-1842 (exhibition catalogue in French, Grand Palais, Paris, 2015/16)Rosalind P.

In each episode, host Misha Glenny and expert guests explore the characters, events and discoveries that have shaped our world.
The main reason I think I love art so much is because it's full of mystery. I've long had a soft spot for the unusual. Somewhere between Are You Afraid of the Dark? and Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, I realized my fascination with the unexplained, and I've been chasing that feeling ever since. It was only a matter of time before that curiosity led me to the art world. After all, every great mystery leaves clues. So does every great work of art.Art rewards those willing to think like a detective. Understanding a work of art means leaning into that mystery, and following its scent down a long trail of clues, symbols, and intentions. Why are certain objects illuminated while others recede into darkness? What's the difference between an open palm and a closed fist? Why does one figure meet your gaze while another looks away? It all means something, if you're willing to look closely enough.Of course, when I learned about Jane! at Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University, I had to speak with its curator. Jane! explores the enigmatic life, and even more mysterious death, of Jane Stanford, founder and matriarch of Stanford University. An advocate of the arts, a collector of oddities, a spiritualist, and the steward of the Cantor, Jane was a remarkably complex woman of the Gilded Age. After surviving one apparent poisoning attempt, Jane died just weeks later under circumstances that remain as mysterious today as they were in 1905. Perhaps it's no wonder that her final resting place lies in a mausoleum just steps from the museum she built. What may be even more mysterious are the numerous staff and students who claim to have seen a woman eerily similar to her portrait wandering Stanford's grounds.On this episode of Unibrow Radio, I speak with Patrick R. Crowley, Associate Curator of European Art at the Cantor, about why it's time for everyone to know Jane, (and her ghost,) a little better. No Ouija board needed. –– Shaquille HeathJane! Life, Vision, and Legacy of Jane Stanford is on view at the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University through May 18, 2028.
The outbreak of the First World War shattered the established European art market. Amidst fighting, looting, confiscations, expropriation fears and political and economic upheaval, an integrated marketplace shaped by upper-class patrons broke down entirely. In its place, Maddalena Alvi argues, can be found the origins of a recognizably modern market of nationalized spheres driven by capitalist investment and speculation, yet open to wider social strata. Delving into auction records, memoirs, newspaper articles, financial and legal documents in six languages, Alvi explores these cultural and socio-economic developments across the British, French, and German markets, as well as trade spheres such as Russia and Scandinavia. 1914 marked the end of the European art market and cemented the connection between art and finance. The European Art Market and the First World War: Art, Capital, and the Decline of the Collecting Class, 1910–1925 (Cambridge University Press, 2025) Maddalena Alvi holds a PhD in History from the University of Cambridge, an MSc in Economic and Social History from the University of Oxford, and an MLitt in Art History from the University of Glasgow.

Partiendo de una realidad política que es, al mismo tiempo, artística y cultural, el libro Ars Hasburgica revisa el concepto historiográfico del Renacimiento. Hasta hace unos años, este periodo se entendía desde una perspectiva geográficamente italocéntrica, muy próxima al lenguaje clásico y políticamente centrada en la idea de las "artes nacionales" y las "escuelas regionales". Sin embargo, los últimos estudios certifican que el Renacimiento es un fenómeno global y complejo. Esta publicación ofrece una visión del arte que estudia el papel desempeñado por la dinastía de los Habsburgo y sus diversas cortes, intentando verificar si, al aplicar otros modelos historiográficos y al tener como enfoque el arte de la Casa de Austria, las ideas tradicionales pueden defenderse ante la comprensión del pasado en el siglo XXI. Los editores mencionan el llamado "paradigma de Vasari" que, en gran medida, es el fundamento para la historia del arte del siglo XVI escrita a lo largo de los últimos siglos. La publicación también busca definiciones de los fenómenos artísticos, no tanto en torno a naciones e identidades de las artes, sino planteando estos temas a través de ideas relacionadas con la Corte como esfera política, artística y cultural, partiendo de los estudios de Norbert Elias, Amedeo Quondam o Carlo Ossola. Miguel Ángel Zalama es Catedrático y director del Departamento de Historia del Arte en la Universidad de Valladolid (España), así como director del Centro Tordesillas para las Relaciones con América Latina. Tras concluir la tesis doctoral. realizó estancias tanto en el Institute of Fine Arts de la Universidad de Nueva York, donde trabajó con Jonathan Brown, así como en la Universidad de La Sapienza en Roma, en la Université Catholique de l'Ouest, Angers (Francia), y en la Universidad de Monterrey (México).

Justin Holcomb sits down with Lloyd DeWitt to discuss how the church has historically thought of sacred space and architecture, what we can learn from categories and trends that have impacted church architecture, and what we miss when we replace steeples, pulpits, and cathedrals with many eclectic, modern designs. Dr. DeWitt is the Chief Curator and Irene Leache Curator of European Art at the Chrysler Museum of Art in Norfolk, Virginia. He holds a Ph.D. in Art History from the University of Maryland, College Park, where he specialized in Northern Baroque and Northern Renaissance Art and his interests range broadly, from African art to 20th-century Canadian art.

Judith W. Mann, the senior curator of European art to 1800. Since joining the museum in 1988, she has reinstalled the collections of Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, and 18th-century European painting and sculpture three times, and organized two major international exhibitions. In 2022, the museum will organize a major, international exhibition curated by Mann that examines the art of painting on stone, a practice that flourished in Europe—particularly Italy—in the 16th and 17th centuries. In 2015, the Association of Art Museum Curators and the American Academy in Rome awarded Mann the Samuel H. Kress Foundation AAMC Affiliated Fellowship in order to allow her to continue her research into painting on stone in Rome.——- Mann curated “Orazio and Artemisia Gentileschi: Father and Daughter Painters in Baroque Italy,” which opened at Rome's Palazzo Venezia and later was seen at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Saint Louis Art Museum, as well as the 2012 exhibition “Federico Barocci: Renaissance Master,” which was presented at the Saint Louis Art Museum and the National Gallery, London. In recognition for her scholarship relating to the Barocci exhibition and catalogue, Mann received the Association of Art Museum Curators' Outstanding Monographic Exhibition Award. She holds a graduate degree and doctorate from Washington University.

Rainer Gross in his studio - photo by David Benthal Rainer Gross was born in Cologne, Germany in 1951. In 1973 he left Cologne to come to New York City, where he continued his art career at a time when many proclaimed the “end of painting.” Gross' reaction to this proclamation was to draw on his connection to the painterly heritage of traditional European Art and its usage of iconography, and to establish a vocabulary capable of taking these historical traditions into the present. The dense and weathered surfaces of his paintings, realized through layers of pressed pigments, do just this. He has exhibited his works in numerous solo exhibitions nationally and internationally at venues such as the Ludwig Museum (Koblenz, Germany), Musée cantonal des Beaux-Arts (Lausanne, Switzerland), Krannert Art museum (Champaign, Illinois) and many others. Gross' paintings are in numerous public collections, including the AT&T Corporate Art Collection, the Cohen Family Collection, the UBS Union Bank of Switzerland, Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, D.C., and the Lowe Art Museum amongst others. His works have been reviewed by The Paris Review, The New York Times, Art in America, The Boston Globe, ArtNews, The Brooklyn Rail, and many more. The book he is reading now is The History of Jazz by Ted Gioia, Double Twins X -Münstereifel, 2021, 54x132” in four parts, oil and pigments on canvas Double Take - NoFo X 2022, 24x16", 61x41cm, framed 26x18", 66x46cm Archival pigment high-quality giclée print on Photo Rag Ultra Smooth Matte FineArt Paper from Hahnemuhle, mounted on wood panel.
Dr. Judy Mann, Senior Curator or European Art to 1800 for the St. Louis Art Museum, stopped by to talk to Nancy about the exhibition, Paintings on Stone: Science and the Sacred 1530–1800. About the Exhibition: In 2000 the Saint Louis Art Museum purchased Cavaliere d'Arpino's Perseus Rescuing Andromeda, an exceptional painting on lapis lazuli. The acquisition of the small, stunning work of art spurred extensive research that culminates in Paintings on Stone: Science and the Sacred 1530–1800, the first systematic examination of the pan-European practice of this unusual and little-studied artistic tradition. ——— By 1530 Italian artists had begun to paint portraits and sacred images on stone. At first artists used slate and marble. By the last decades of the 16th century, the repertoire expanded, eventually including alabaster, lapis lazuli, onyx, jasper, agate, and amethyst. In addition to demonstrating the beauty of these works, Paintings on Stone explains why artists began using stone supports and the role that stone played in the meaning of these endeavors. ——— Bringing together more than 70 examples by 58 artists, Paintings on Stone represents major centers of stone painting and features 21 different stones. ——— Judith W. Mann, the senior curator of European art to 1800. Since joining the museum in 1988, she has reinstalled the collections of Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, and 18th-century European painting and sculpture three times, and organized two major international exhibitions. In 2022, the museum will organize a major, international exhibition curated by Mann that examines the art of painting on stone, a practice that flourished in Europe—particularly Italy—in the 16th and 17th centuries.

Art is a very unique way for a person to express their feelings and their experiences but also to represent their region and their cultural background.

She has founded Victory art, that strongly focuses on central and eastern european contemporary art. In this episode, Viktória Pikovská talks about the impact the Sowjet Union had on eastern european art, female artists being objectified and an inspriring project called Majak.

Professor Catherine Whistler discusses with Ivan six things which she thinks should be better known. An art historian and curator, Catherine Whistler is Keeper of Western Art at the Ashmolean Museum, Fellow of St John's College, and a Professor of the History of European Art, University of Oxford. Born in Dublin, where she studied History of Art at UCD, she maintains strong links with Ireland and with Italy - especially Venice where she lived in the early 1980s. She has researched and written about Italian art, and has curated exhibitions at the Ashmolean on a variety of topics from Brazilian Baroque art to Raphael. She enjoyed working with artist Jenny Saville on exhibitions in 2015, especially in thinking about the expressive power of drawing. At St John's College, Catherine has been involved with the artist-in-residence programme since it started in 2000. She is delighted to have spent most of her career at Britain's first public museum - the Ashmolean opened in 1683 - which is also a leading University museum with endlessly intriguing collections.

African sculptures, Oceanic ritual masks, Japanese woodblock prints…Today, you can turn to Google to see thousands of pieces of artwork from around the world. However, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, non-Western art just started to make its way to Europe. Works from abroad fascinated European artists with their beautiful aesthetics, subtle color palettes, unique perspectives, and non-traditional subject matters. Their influence was so significant that one could feasibly argue that 20th-century Modernism would not exist without them. In this episode, let's find out how Non-Western art manifested itself in the works of avant-garde European artists: Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Vincent van Gogh, Paul Gauguin, Amedeo Modigliani, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso. #AvantGarde #Art #CuriousMuse
