In this lecture, released on November 5, 2021, Babette Bohn of Texas Christian University discusses women artists in early modern Italy. Early modern Bologna was exceptional for its many talented women artists. Thanks to a long-standing tradition of honoring accomplished women, several attentive artistic biographers, strong local interest in collecting women's work, and permissive attitudes toward women studying with male artists who were not family members, Bologna was home to more women artists than any other city in early modern Italy. Bolognese women artists were unusual not only for their large numbers but also for their varied specializations and frequent public success. They painted altarpieces, nudes, mythologies, allegories, portraits, and self-portraits, creating sculptures, drawings, prints, embroidery, and paintings. This lecture challenges some common assumptions about women artists, suggesting productive approaches for future research. This is the twenty-fifth annual lecture offered by the National Gallery of Art in this endowed series named after Sydney J. Freedberg (1914–1997), the great specialist of Italian art.

In our fourth episode, 'Money and the Museum' your hosts Alice Acland and Tash Waddell discuss the history, social politics and discourses around money and art and its manifestation in museum spaces. We talk about how blockbuster exhibitions can be a useful scholarly impetus but also how the 'spectacle' of the modern exhibition can sometimes be prioritised at the expense of other facets of artist's work. We discuss the museum gift shop (of which we are both big fans!) and the future of the exhibition as a tourist destination in the age of Covid-19. The Medium of the Museum is a conversation twice a month which examines the responsibilities of museums and galleries in modern society through a lens of history, culture and thematic insights.We would love to hear from you!

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.07.13.196824v1?rss=1 Authors: Schintu, S., Cunningham, C. A., Freedberg, M., Taylor, P., Gotts, S. J., Shomstein, S., Wassermann, E. M. Abstract: Hemispatial neglect is thought to result from disruption of interhemispheric equilibrium. Right hemisphere lesions deactivate the right frontoparietal network and hyperactivate the left via release from interhemispheric inhibition. Support for this theory comes from neuropsychological evidence as well as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies in healthy subjects, in whom right posterior parietal cortex (PPC) inhibition causes neglect-like, rightward, visuospatial bias. Concurrent TMS and fMRI after right PPC TMS show task-dependent changes but may fail to identify effects of stimulation in areas not directly activated by the specific task, complicating interpretations. We used resting-state functional connectivity (RSFC) after inhibitory TMS over the right PPC to examine changes in the networks underlying visuospatial attention. In a crossover experiment in healthy individuals, we delivered continuous theta burst TMS to the right PPC and vertex as control condition. We hypothesized that PPC inhibitory stimulation would cause a rightward visuospatial bias, decrease PPC connectivity with frontal areas, and increase PPC connectivity with the attentional network in the left hemisphere. We also expected that individual differences in fractional anisotropy (FA) in white matter connections between the PPCs would account for variability in TMS-induced RSFC changes. As expected, TMS over the right PPC caused a rightward shift in line bisection judgment and increased RSFC between the right PPC and the left superior temporal gyrus. This effect was inversely related to FA in the posterior corpus callosum. Local inhibition of the right PPC reshapes connectivity in the attentional network and depends on interhemispheric connections. Copy rights belong to original authors. Visit the link for more info

If Nat Freedberg's voice sounds familiar, it may be because you've heard him on this podcast way back on EP32, when I interviewed his band, The Upper Crust. Of course, back then, he wasn't speaking as Nat, he was speaking as his character, Lord Bendover, the snarling 18th century aristocrat in a powdered wig and finery that wielded his Gibson SG like a rocque n' roll weapon. That band got some national exposure on the late night talk show circuit, opened for Tenacious D, and, as Nat mentions here, nearly had their own reality show. Freedberg was somewhat relieved when that didn't work out, and he's very happy to talk as himself here, avoiding the pressure of having to improvise as a character that was a lot more fun to play onstage than off. Unfortunately, The Upper Crust is no longer a going concern, on a kind of permanent hiatus. The good news is, that means we get Freedberg's first solo album after almost forty years rocking in bands like the Satanics and the Titanics in the Boston scene. And it's worth the wait. The adjective that pops up most in reviews of Freedberg's Better Late Than Never is “tasty,” and that's well deserved. It's still a rock album, but one with a lighter touch. Guitar drenched in rich tremolo weaves around electric piano on the opening track, “Devil Rockin' Man.” There's a more earnest, occasionally optimistic tone that Lord Bendover would never cop to on songs like “Only Takes A Minute,” “If That's the Way You Want It,” and last week's featured track, “Something Good About Love.” The biggest thing that doesn't change is those sweet, sweet riffs. Freedberg is skilled at filling the spaces between phrases with melodies and lines that really connect all the pieces and keep you humming long after the music stops. The album almost didn't happen when Freedberg suffered nerve damage and wasn't sure he'd be able to play again. He recovered with a new dedication to get these songs out into the world, and he's already working on the follow-up album. You can find more about the new album on Rum Bar Records' BandCamp site, and find more of Freedberg's stuff on his BandCamp site, and find more about The Upper Crust at www.theuppercrust.org. This week's featured track is “Colonoscopy Pt. 1” from Jim Breuer's new album, Live From Portland. I caught Breuer at last year's Comics Come Home benefit in Boston where he did an inspiring riff on life and death. Things got complicated over the holidays, but I finally caught up to speak with Breuer for a minicast that will be out next week about love and mortality, two themes which figure heavily on the new album. You get the tiniest of hints of that in this track. Colonoscopies are necessary, yes, but not fun. Unfortunately, I speak from experience on that account, but we'll leave that topic be so you can enjoy this instead.
If you are a fan of music or comedy, you should already know Geoff Edgers. He was a longtime arts writer with The Boston Globe before moving to The Washington Post, where he has written some extraordinary pieces on Roseanne Barr, Chevy Chase, Norm Macdonald, and the article that his new book, Walk This Way, is based on. He makes it clear he is a reporter, not an analyst. So what you get from his writing is the facts about fascinating subjects. You hear from both Chase and his detractors. You see text exchanges between him and Macdonald. You see Roseanne speaking publicly in Israel. He doesn't have to dress up a story because he knows how to show you the most interesting and relevant parts. There are some who say the subtitle to Edgers's book, Walk This Way: Run-DMC, Aerosmith, and the Song That Changed American Music Forever, is hyperbole. I can attest that it is not. I was in seventh grade when the Run-DMC/Aerosmith version of “Walk This Way” came out, and I could see the impact firsthand, starting with myself. We discuss this in the conversation, but I can tell you I was a kid who didn't think rap was music because it didn't have guitars or “real instruments.” That made me a prime target producer Rick Rubin wanted to reach, and it worked. Not just on me, but others I knew as a kid who reacted to that song the way I did. It opened up my world a bit, and if that didn't happen knowingly for everyone, it did make them shake their ass, which is a damn fine start. The conversation picks up with Edgers in his home office talking about a Clash podcast narrated by Chuck D, and how the timeline for how music changed from the 60s to the 80s moves so briskly. You can find him on Facebook and Twitter, read his work in The Washington Post and The Boston Globe, and find Walk This Way at Barnes and Noble, Amazon, Powell's Books, and all the hippest booksellers. This week's featured track, “Something Good About Love” by Nat Freedberg. Some of you might know Nat better as Lord Bendover from The Upper Crust, guest on EP32 of the Department of Tangents Podcast and hard-hitting purveyors of rocque n' roll who performed for years in their powdered wigs and finery. Freedberg has taken off the golden coat, but he still wields his Gibson SG, and he has put out an incredibly tasty solo album called Better Late Than Never. I don't want to give too much away before next week's episode, when you can hear about the Crust and this, Freedberg's first solo album in nearly forty years of recording music. But your homework is to listen to it in full, with all of its wonderful surprises, so you can full enjoy the episode.
