Palencia y San José de Costa Rica son los dos destinos de este episodio de El Placer de Viajar, que también se va de crucero y da noticias del sector. En este nuevo episodio de El Placer de Viajar, el podcast de viajes de esRadio y Libertad Digital, sus presentadores Carmelo Jordá y Kelu Robles nos guían por fascinantes destinos y nos descubren las últimas novedades del sector. El episodio comienza explorando el concepto de los cruceros premium de la mano de Eva Sanchidrián, experta de Mundomar Cruceros, quien explica que el valor de estos viajes radica en la excelente relación entre tripulación y pasajeros, así como en la amplitud de espacio disponible a bordo de barcos como los destinados a estos cruceros de nivel un tanto más elevado. Sanchidrián desmitifica las tarifas de las navieras premium, señalando que al ser en su mayoría compañías americanas, su temporada alta no coincide con el mes de agosto europeo, lo que permite encontrar precios muy competitivos en verano. Además, resalta la espectacular oferta gastronómica sin suplementos de compañías como Virgin Voyages y el estilo clásico de Cunard, que evoca la época dorada de la navegación. Pero lo más importante es que los oyentes de El Placer de Viajar y de esRadio pueden aprovecharse de un descuento si contratan su crucero a través de esta página.Palencia, una desconocida a descubrir La primera parada del viaje nos lleva a Palencia, una capital de provincia española a menudo olvidada pero sumamente agradecida. Kelu Robles desmiente el mito de que sea poco visitada, aclarando que, aunque se registran menos pernoctaciones por su cercanía a Madrid —a apenas una hora en AVE—, es un destino ideal para una escapada de fin de semana. Entre los monumentos palentinos más destacados figura el Cristo del Otero, una imponente escultura de 21 metros de altura diseñada por Victorio Macho que se alza como el Cristo más alto de España. Kelu también recomienda la visita a la Catedral de Palencia, apodada "la bella desconocida", que es el tercer templo catedralicio más grande del país y destaca por su evolución arquitectónica desde la cripta visigoda hasta el gótico tardío. El auge económico de finales del siglo XIX dejó en Palencia una magnífica ruta modernista de la que se conservan construcciones de gran belleza. Los visitantes pueden recorrer la Calle Mayor porticada, contemplar el Casino de Palencia o maravillarse ante la fachada de estilo veneciano del Colegio de Villandrando, ejemplos de una arquitectura señorial única. Para los amantes de la naturaleza, Palencia ofrece el Parque de la Huerta Guadián y el Monte el Viejo, un paraje natural que alberga una singular reserva de ciervos muy accesibles para el público. La gastronomía local también tiene un protagonismo especial con la menestra palentina, las patatas a la importancia y las tapas de mejillones de La Mejillonera.San José, la parada que no se hace en Costa Rica En la segunda parte del programa, Carmelo Jordá nos traslada a San José, la capital de Costa Rica. Jordá define el país como un oasis verde, seguro y con una naturaleza exuberante. Aunque San José no encaja en el prototipo de ciudad colonial perfecta, destaca por ser una urbe muy fotogénica, llena de vida y de gente sumamente hospitalaria con los españoles. El recorrido por San José incluye el Parque de la Sabana, el Teatro Nacional —que ofrece visitas teatralizadas— y el bullicioso Mercado Central. En este último espacio se pueden degustar los platos típicos en las populares "sodas" (restaurantes tradicionales), como el gallo pinto o el casado, acompañados por el extraordinario café costarricense. Un aspecto sorprendente de San José es su destacada arquitectura brutalista, representada en edificios como la Asamblea Legislativa o la iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Fátima de Alberto Linner. Jordá subraya cómo la solidez del hormigón visto y los juegos de luces de las vidrieras generan espacios de un gran valor artístico. Por último, Santi Molina presenta las noticias turísticas, comenzando con el Costa Verde Express, un tren de lujo que recorre el norte de España entre Bilbao y Santiago de Compostela. También destaca la reapertura tras una reforma integral del hotel Hyatt Zilara en Cancún y el liderazgo histórico de España en banderas azules, sumando 677 playas galardonadas con la Comunidad Valenciana a la cabeza. En cuanto a las conexiones aéreas, el aeropuerto de Almería sumará 25 nuevas rutas internacionales y Wizz Air abrirá enlaces con Milán y Nápoles. En el ámbito cultural, Molina recomienda la exposición de pinturas de Winston Churchill en la Wallace Collection de Londres y la gran retrospectiva de Mark Rothko en el Palazzo Strozzi de Florencia.

This season's much anticipated auctions in New York have brought some records and eye-popping prices, including for works by Jackson Pollock, Constantin Brancusi and Mark Rothko, and some more middling results. Ben Luke talks to Judd Tully, who has been reporting on some of the sales for The Art Newspaper. The largest show of the art of James McNeill Whistler in Europe for more than 30 years has just opened at Tate Britain in London, and travels later in the year to the Netherlands, where it forms two shows, at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam and The Mesdag Collection in The Hague. Ben takes a tour of the Tate show with its lead curator Carol Jacobi. And this episode's Work of the Week is the frieze made by Edvard Munch in 1922 for the women's canteen of the Freia Chocolate Factory in Oslo. The frieze remains in the collection of the Freia chocolate company today, but is on temporary loan to MUNCH, the museum in the Norwegian capital for the exhibition Edvard Munch and the Chocolate Factory. Our digital editor, Alexander Morrison, went to Oslo to speak to the curator of the exhibition, Ana María Bresciani, about the frieze.James McNeill Whistler, Tate Britain, London, until 27 September 2026; before splitting into two parallel presentations in the Netherlands, Whistler: Dandy and Disruptor, Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam; Whistler: Loving The Netherlands, The Mesdag Collection, The Hague, both 16 October-10 January 2027.Edvard Munch and the Chocolate Factory, MUNCH, Oslo, until 11 October.

Nach einem sehr erfolgreichen Family Health Day ist Isabel in einem tiefen Energie-Loch und Lukas hat die passenden Vergleiche parat. Was folgt, ist eine kurze Rekapitulation zum Event: ausverkauft, niederschwelliger Zugang zu Gesundheit und Vorsorge, über 100 Leute beim Cholesterin-Chec und der HPV Impfung.. Panels zu Adipositas, Krebsvorsorge, Herz-Kreislauf und Medienkompetenz – mit der Wiener Bürgermeister-Stellvertreterin Bettina Emmerling am Tisch. Die Mission war, Gesundheit niederschwellig zu machen.Und es hat mit viel Freude und Energie richtig gut funktioniert. Dennoch versinken Lukas und Isabel gemeinsam in einem Westbahn-Buchungskaninchenloch.

 “The large paintings envelop the viewer and invite him or her in, it is an invitation to a self contained world where one can lose oneself and perhaps in the process find oneself. And for all their grandest of scale it is an intimate experience, a world unique to that particular encounter” - Christopher Rothko, Mark Rothko and the Inner WorldWelcome to Episode #140:In Italy, Mark Rothko (1903-1970) found what he was looking for. On a long voyage in Europe in 1950 with his wife, Rothko found himself in Florence, in the cradle of the Italian Renaissance - Today I share the story about this encounter and the shift in perspective that occurred for his painting, and the places in Italy that opened a new dialogue, a liberation of colour.Mark Rothko is currently on exhibit at the Palazzo Strozzi in Florence. There are three site specific places to see this exhibition including the Laurentian Library (Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana) and the Museum of San Marco (Museo di San Marco) in Florence.Mark Rothko is most known for his colour field paintings, the great abstract artworks that have become iconic in modern art. Today I share about his life, the influence of Italy, and the experience of seeing a Rothko artwork in person (think rapture meets a direct experience of a unified colour field) and why you should go if you can."Rothko's art is an invitation. It is a doorway and really demands that you pay attention" - Michelle JohnstonVisit: Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi "Rothko's first encounter with Florence dates to 1950, during a trip to Italy with his wife Mell. He was deeply moved by Fra Angelico's frescoes at the Convent of San Marco and by Michelangelo's architectural vision in the Vestibule of the Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, which would inspire the Seagram Murals painted in the late 1950s—a dialogue that Rothko further developed during his second visit to Florence in 1966. In some of his more delicate works, one can also perceive the influence of fifteenth-century Italian art and, in particular, of Angelico's fresco technique. Rothko and Angelico shared a desire to evoke a sense of transcendence, a dimension at once distant and profoundly familiar. While Angelico achieved this through the emotional resonance of divine figures in dialogue with earthly reality, Rothko created color fields capable of accompanying viewers into different emotional depths, challenging accepted notions of abstraction and color theory" - Palazzo Strozzi, FlorenceEnjoy, Michelle xShownotes A Writer in Italy InstagramSubstack - At My TableMichelle's BooksMusical Scores by Richard JohnstonA Writer in Italy is about travel and life.

I am back from my trip to Florence, and am covered in history. It is impossible to go to Florence and not be. Unless you are a college student who is doing study abroad and only know about Rafael, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Leonardo from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon and movie. It was kind of crazy to be able to walk around and casually see works of art from the 1300s. It is easy to say things like “Florence is the birthplace of the Renaissance,” but when you see it in person, it makes quite the impression. Staring at a Giotti or a Botticelli or a Caravaggio leaves a mark. Being able to walk streets or sit in piazzas, thinking about the centuries of footsteps that preceded puts one life in a certain perspective. Speaking of perspective, I don't know if anything quite prepares you for standing in front of David looming over the crowds. Perfectly proportionate but on a whole other scale.  It wasn't just the past that was impressive, but the present as well. The artists who were working on the streets, showing their beautiful works in front of other beautiful works while people walked by in beautiful fashion. Beauty upon beauty upon beauty. While there, I even had the chance to take in a Mark Rothko exhibit, who interestingly enough was influenced by Renaissance art and visited Florence many times.  So much art, so many museums, so many ways to tell the story of this history.  This is why it is good timing to have Will Humphrey of the agency Sugar Creative on Experience by Design. Will started out as a fine artist, having his work exhibited as any artist would. His education combines degrees in Graphic Design and Communication as well as Molecular Genetics. Today he is the Director of Creative and Innovation at Sugar. At Sugar, he is part of a creative force that combines augmented reality, virtual reality, storytelling, and history together to bring the past into the present.  We talk about Sugar's project on the American Revolution that will allow users to experience pivotal historical moments through interactive experiences. Will shared the inspiration he received from his grandfather, who developed anti-aircraft balloons during the Battle of Britain. We share our appreciation of video games, especially those with historical features and lessons, such as Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Will talks about how they are working with Ubisoft to combine gaming and history to make for immersive learning experiences.  Will shares insights from his work on geolocated experiences, highlighting the value of immersing oneself in a set of ideas and understanding the physical and historical context of a place. We also discussed how physical transformations, such as landfill in Boston, affect our understanding of history and the importance of considering the nature of a space in designing experiences.   We cover a lot of ground in this chat, which is about as much ground as I covered walking around Florence and its many museums.

‘Theatre is an experience. A performance is never just an image.' Łukasz Twarkowski is one of the most compelling theatre makers today, always trying to push the boundaries of the art form. In conversation with Łukasz Twarkowski.At the latest Holland Festival, Łukasz Twarkowski made a strong impression with his overwhelming multidisciplinary production Rohtko, exploring the concept of originality and forgery in the art world, inspired by a fake Mark Rothko sales scandal. In an earlier edition of the festival in 2023, Twarkowski organised with Respublika a six-hour utopian rave Het Parool called ‘an experience like no other'. Twarkowski's work can rightfully be called groundbreaking.The originally Polish theatre maker creates interdisciplinary performances at the intersection of theatre, video art, and performance art. His work explores major philosophical questions of our time, including human consciousness, the rise of AI, and the place of the human being in the late capitalist world. With his work, Twarkowski tries to find new ways of storytelling that do justice to how the contemporary individual thinks and experiences the world. Because in a world flooded with images, traditional theatre is no longer up to that task, according to Twarkowski.This event is the first episode in a new series at De Balie, featuring conversations with leading European theatre makers about their work and vision. At the heart of the series lies theatre as a democratic space: a place where audiences are invited to reflect on what remains unspoken in society, and where art confronts the most urgent questions of our time.Łukasz Twarkowski is a creator of multimedia performances combining theatre and visual arts. He places his projects in the context of extending reality through multimedia. A crucial element of Twarkowski's creative work is investigating the ability and limitations of theatre as a medium and tool of communication. By permanent deconstruction of narratives, questioning the fixed habits of the audience and by meaningful usage of new media, Twarkowski creates a new, original language of stage performance based on multimedia and, more widely, digital technologies. In using these, Twarkowski analyses and observes increasingly complex relations between the Real, the Symbolic and the Imagined.Programme editor: Ianthe MosselmanSupported by: VfondsZie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Art is Awesome, the show where we talk with an artist or art worker with a connection to the San Francisco Bay Area.  In this episode, Emily talks with San Francisco based artist Chad Hasegawa, known for his minimalist, bold abstract style. Chad grew up in Hawaii, moved to San Francisco inspired by the Mission School art movement, and studied advertising at the Academy of Art University before becoming a full-time painter. He discusses how artists like Franz Kline and Mark Rothko shaped his goal of creating work that stirs deep emotion without explanation, and how painting murals on the street — and the raw reactions from passersby — reinforced that vision. Chad is currently painting a mural on shipping containers at the entrance to the San Francisco Art Fair at Fort Mason (April 16–19) and will have a solo presentation at the Good Mother Gallery booth inside the fair. About Artist Chad Hasegawa: Chad Hasegawa is a San Francisco-based artist and a graduate of the San Francisco Academy of Art. Hasegawa's art is a quest for simplicity and emotional resonance. His approach, deeply rooted in minimalism, focuses on reducing complexity to reveal the essence of feeling and reason. Hasegawa believes in stripping away the unnecessary, leaving behind art that genuinely connects with the viewer through color and form. This process, a balance of adding and subtracting elements, aims to capture pure emotion rather than narrate stories. His work is a deep exploration into the intrinsic structures that shape our perceptions. His work is not just an artistic expression; it is a blueprint for understanding and experiencing the world. Through the lens of minimalism, Hasegawa meticulously crafts each piece to serve as a map, guiding viewers through a landscape of feelings and ideas. The essence of his art lies in this careful balance of elements - each subtraction and addition serves a deliberate purpose, ensuring that every stroke, every color, and every form contributes to the overarching narrative of emotional truth. He strips away the extraneous, focusing on the elemental to evoke a raw, unfiltered emotional response. This purity of expression allows the viewer to connect deeply with the work, engaging not just with the art but with their own inner landscapes of emotion and thought. His work reshapes our understanding of art and its purpose, emphasizing the importance of simplicity in a complex world. By removing the superfluous, his work allows us to appreciate the fundamental aspects of life and art. Hasegawa's work uniquely blends emotion and reasoning, ensuring each piece is both meaningful and emotive. When his work lacks feeling, he enriches it with emotion; when it lacks purpose, he refines it to its core. This balance is Hasegawa's signature, making his art a powerful statement in the ongoing evolution of minimal abstraction and its role in shaping our future.

I was asked a simple question: Why are there three Rothko prints behind me? That question opens into something much deeper. Mark Rothko was born Jewish, and many have tried to read his work through that lens—seeing in it echoes of the Holocaust, the Temple, or even Kabbalah. But I'm not convinced. In this video, I briefly trace Rothko's life and then set those interpretations aside—not because they're impossible, but because they may be missing something more essential. Instead, I turn to what Rothko actually said and wrote… to how he constructed his paintings… and to what decades of living with his work have taught me. This is a personal attempt to answer a different question: Not what Rothko meant—but what his paintings do. And why they continue to hold me.

Il proverbio recita “Aprile, dolce dormire”, ma per noi appassionati d’arte è un mese intenso, che richiede spostamenti nello spazio e nel tempo. Il percorso di questa puntata parte da Firenze, dove a Palazzo Strozzi è stata inaugurata una mostra dedicata a Mark Rothko e al suo rapporto con l’arte rinascimentale e la città sull’Arno. Ci spostiamo poi a Genova per la grande esposizione su Antoon van Dyck, uno dei pittori più influenti del XVII secolo, capace di fondere la tradizione fiamminga con il Rinascimento e il Barocco italiano. Tra una tappa e l’altra, irrompe in studio un artista sui generis, una figura che si distingue per un’originalità svincolata da schemi e definizioni: Antonio Marras. Tra una sfilata e l’altra, Marras crea sculture, disegni e dipinti, tanto da avere attualmente all’attivo ben tre mostre tra l’Italia e Londra.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Recorded at the Art Papers Fire Ecology Symposium, Atlanta Atlanta artist Michi Meko joins Duncan MacKenzie and Brian Andrews during Art Papers' symposium weekend for a wide-ranging conversation that moves from southern port cities and landscape painting to pandemic solitude, mental health, and the strange spiritual work of making art. Meko discusses his exhibition So Black and So Blue, a body of work developed between New Orleans and Savannah that reflects on color, history, and the charged atmosphere of southern coastal landscapes. Working with shimmering surfaces, deep blues, blacks, and gilded frames, the paintings operate between abstraction and landscape. They draw viewers into spaces that feel both cosmic and terrestrial, somewhere between daybreak and nightfall. The works are designed to be experienced in person, where layers of marks, reflective materials, and shifting color create movement and depth impossible to capture in photographs. The conversation expands into the tension between hard-edge abstraction and expressive mark-making. Meko describes his earlier work using nautical signal flags as coded language about survival and buoyancy in America, while also poking at the seriousness of modernist abstraction. From there, the group debates the emotional power of painting, touching on artists like Mark Rothko and Ellsworth Kelly, asking what makes a work spiritually or emotionally resonant and why some paintings leave viewers cold. A major turning point in Meko's practice came during the COVID-19 shutdown. When Atlanta closed down, he packed his car with camping gear and disappeared into the mountains, spending long stretches alone hiking, fishing, and writing. The period became a personal reckoning. He stopped painting entirely, turned inward, and began confronting anxieties and habits that had previously gone unexamined. Through solitude and outdoor wandering, he reframed landscape not as scenery but as a metaphor for the inner terrain of the mind. When Meko eventually returned to the studio, that experience reshaped his work. The paintings that emerged began to reflect internal states rather than external views. Horizons divide mind and body. Shimmering skies become metaphors for thought and anxiety. Dense fields of mark-making hold viewers inside the work, drawing them in and out of the image in a restless visual rhythm. Throughout the conversation, Meko reflects on the strange transformation that can occur through isolation, describing the experience of leaving society and returning "a little feral, a little monk-like," carrying new perspectives about art, masculinity, therapy, and the ways people search for healing. What emerges is a portrait of an artist navigating between wilderness and studio, darkness and wonder, abstraction and landscape. For Meko, painting becomes both exploration and survival, a way of mapping the landscapes inside ourselves.

"All I wanted was time" - Tracey Emin, Strozzi Gallery DocumentaryToday I share a travel story for International Women's Day about a glorious art and life moment in Florence from 2025.  There are beautiful things that happen along the way that stay with you. I reflect on my experience and joy while walking in the Centro Storico of Florence and discovering that there was an exhibition of Tracey Emin's work on that week at the Palazzo Strozzi. It had been a long time since I had seen her work and remembered her brilliant exhibition in Sydney in the early 2000s. Today I honour Women and Art and the creative genius of Tracey Emin. I describe the effect of seeing her work in real life as "subtle and profound" and always significant. When you see Emin's work in real life you don't forget. You remember everything.These days the Palazzo Strozzi has some wonderful exhibitions - Mark Rothko opens next week and more recently there was Fra Angelico.  So make time to see what is happening at The Strozzi Gallery if you visit Firenze.And they have a nice cafe downstairs too that you can enjoy in the renaissance court yard. Enjoy, Michelle xA Florentine Cafe & Musings on Women and Art in ItalyShownotes A Writer in Italy InstagramSubstack - At My TableMichelle's BooksMusical Scores by Richard Johnston© 2026  A Writer In Italy - travel, books, art and lifeMusic Composed by Richard Johnston © 2026Support the show

In the mid-'90s, two high-end New York art galleries began selling one fake painting after another – works in the style of Jackson Pollock, Andy Warhol, Mark Rothko and others. It was the largest art fraud in modern U.S. history, totaling more than $80 million. Our first story looks at how it happened and why almost no one ever was punished by authorities. Our second story revisits an investigation into a painting looted by the Nazis during World War II. More than half a century later, a journalist helped track it down through the Panama Papers. This is an update of an episode that originally aired in January 2020.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/weekly Connect with us onBluesky, Facebook and Instagram Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Luc Tuymans talks to Ben Luke about his influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped his life and work. Tuymans, who was born in 1958 in Mortsel, Belgium, and lives and works in Antwerp, has transformed the territory of painting in the late 20th and 21st centuries. Using photographs and images from film and other media, he tackles a breadth of subjects and motifs, including contemporary politics, cataclysmic historical events, art history, and apparently banal everyday objects and environments, with paintings that are redolent with atmosphere and poetic power. Tuymans's process of finding the images and deciding how to transform them is slow and precise, and worked through in various stages before it reaches the canvas, where he makes the final piece in oil on a single day. In the resulting pictures, the motif can be veiled or oblique, and sometimes close to abstract, and he has used the term “authentic forgeries” to describe them. In this way, they articulate the elusiveness of representation through painting—a quality Tuymans has described as the medium's “belatedness”—as well as the subjective nature of experience and memory, both personal and collective. He discusses the early impact of Piet Mondrian and Léon Spilliaert, his ongoing admiration for Francisco de Goya, and his response to Théodore Gericault and Mark Rothko in recent series of paintings. He reflects on the importance of literature, including the writings of Thomas Pynchon, and film, especially the painterly approach of David Lynch. He gives insight into his studio life and his singular approach to image-making, and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?

In the late 1990s and early 2000s, Manhattan's Knoedler Gallery made about $80 million selling art by Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollock, Robert Motherwell, and other Abstract Expressionist icons. But in 2011, the truth came out: the paintings were forgeries. The buyers were scammed. Employees at the Knoedler claimed they, too, were victims. But were they actually in on the criminal conspiracy? Keep up with Conspiracy Theories!

Mark Rothko is known for his colorful abstract paintings of stacked rectangles with billowy borders and layered textures. His art has been auctioned for up to $186 million, but he once turned down a commission at a fancy restaurant because he felt his work wouldn’t be appreciated by the wealthy patrons there. He was raised in Portland and graduated from Lincoln High School in 1921. His first ever solo exhibition was at the Portland Art Museum, which is opening its Rothko Pavilion on November 20th. OPB Oregon Art Beat producer Eric Slade made a documentary about Rothko, and he joins us to explore what makes his work so special.

Did you know that your everyday experience with color has a deep effect on your brain? And why have you always hated yellow, anyway? Popular psychology argues that our favorite colors say a lot about us, often claiming that our favorite colors are linked to our personality profiles. Is there any truth to that? Can our favorite colors tell us something about ourselves? Join our roundtable as we discuss this question and more, turning to painter Mark Rothko's masterful approach, using the relationship between color and the human brain to engage his audience.

Kendric Tonn is a painter. He paints. Not houses. Oil painting. On this episode of The Lou Perez Podcast I talk with Kendric about classical painting, Florence (the city, not my mother), El Museo del Prado, art collecting, and how he sees the world as a painter vs how I see the world as a comedian. Kendric gives a helpful tip on how to appreciate a Mark Rothko painting: Understand them, in a sense, as landscapes that you can project yourself into. You can experience Rothkos as emotional landscapes. And it turns out you don't need to be a millionaire to start collecting art. Kendric offers some great advice on how to get started. (It also works as really good dating advice.) If you'd like to buy Kendric's work, reach out to him.

Synopsis“Time is a funny thing,” as one of the more philosophically-inclined Viennese characters so wisely observed in Richard Strauss' opera Der Rosenkavalier.Der Rosenkavalier had its premiere in 1911, and coincidentally, on today's date that year, Viennese composer Anton von Webern completed one of the shortest orchestral works ever written — the fourth of his Five Pieces for Orchestra, which lasts about 20 seconds time. It's so short, it takes longer to describe the music than to actually hear it!Webern was attempting to render down the extravagant style of late-Romantic composers like Strauss and Mahler into its quintessence — a haiku-like concentration of gesture and color, the musical equivalent of a Japanese painting of just a few deft brush strokes across a blank canvas, with more implied than actually shown.In the same spirit, but at the opposite end of the time spectrum, is the work of American composer Morton Feldman, who holds the record for composing some of the longest pieces ever written. Feldman was friends with, and inspired by, painters of the so-called New York School, including Mark Rothko and Philip Guston. A 1984 work by Feldman is titled For Philip Guston, and, in complete performance, it's a piece that runs about four hours.Music Played in Today's ProgramRichard Strauss (1864-1949): Der Rosenkavalier: Suite; New York Philharmonic; Lorin Maazel, conductor; DG 7890Anton Webern (1883-1945): No. 4, from Five Pieces for Orchestra; Ensemble InterContemporain; Pierre Boulez, conductor; DG 437786Morton Feldman (1926-1987): For Philip Guston; The California EAR Unit; Bridge 9078

durée : 00:59:45 - Matthias Van Den Brande "Fields Of Color" - par : Nicolas Pommaret - Le nouvel album intitulé « Fields of Color » de Matthias Van den Brande, inspiré par les œuvres d'art de Mark Rothko, vient de paraître chez Fresh Sound Records. Pour l'occasion, le saxophoniste a invité Jean-Paul Estiévenart à rejoindre le trio à la trompette.

Today, we're joined by acclaimed author and filmmaker Barry Avrich to talk about one of the most colossal art fraud cases in New York history. It all started when a woman named Glafira Rosales walked into the storied Knoedler Gallery with a painting she claimed to have been created by Mark Rothko. The ensuing fiasco ended in catastrophe for the gallery.    The Devil Wears Rothko by Barry Averich is out June 2024, and you can pre-order a copy today.   If you'd like to support The Art of Crime, please consider becoming a patron at www.patreon.com/artofcrimepodcast.  

“Art is a form of prayer … a way to enter into relationship.”Artist and theologian Bruce Herman reflects on the sacred vocation of making, resisting consumerism, and the divine invitation to become co-creators. From Mark Rothko to Rainer Maria Rilke, to Andres Serrano's “Piss Christ” and T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets, he comments on the holy risk of artmaking and the sacred fire of creative origination.Together with Evan Rosa, Bruce Herman explores the divine vocation of art making as resistance to consumer culture and passive living. In this deeply poetic and wide-ranging conversation—and drawing from his book *Makers by Nature—*he invites us into a vision of art not as individual genius or commodity, but as service, dialogue, and co-creation rooted in love, not fear. They touch on ancient questions of human identity and desire, the creative implications of being made in the image of God, Buber's I and Thou, the scandal of the cross, Eliot's divine fire, Rothko's melancholy ecstasy, and how even making a loaf of bread can be a form of holy protest. A profound reflection on what it means to be human, and how we might change our lives—through beauty, vulnerability, and relational making.Episode Highlights“We are made by a Maker to be makers.”“ I think hope is being stolen from us Surreptitiously moment by moment hour by hour day by day.”“There is no them. There is only us.”“The work itself has a life of its own.”“Art that serves a community.”“You must change your life.” —Rilke, recited by Bruce Herman in reflection on the transformative power of art.“When we're not making something, we're not whole. We're not healthy.”“Making art is a form of prayer. It's a form of entering into relationship.”“Art is not for the artist—any more than it's for anyone else. The work stands apart. It has its own voice.”“We're not merely consumers—we're made by a Maker to be makers.”“The ultimate act of art is hospitality.”Topics and ThemesHuman beings are born to create and make meaningArt as theological dialogue and spiritual resistanceCreative practice as a form of love and worshipChristian art and culture in dialogue with contemporary issuesPassive consumption vs. active creationHow to engage with provocative art faithfullyThe role of beauty, mystery, and risk in the creative processArt that changes you spiritually, emotionally, and intellectuallyThe sacred vocation of the artist in a consumerist worldHow poetry and painting open up divine encounter, particularly in Rainer Maria Rilke's “Archaic Torso of Apollo”Four Quartets and spiritual longing in modern poetryHospitality, submission, and service as aesthetic posturesModern culture's sickness and art as medicineEncountering the cross through contemporary artistic imagination“Archaic Torso of Apollo”Rainer Maria Rilke 1875 –1926We cannot know his legendary head with eyes like ripening fruit. And yet his torso is still suffused with brilliance from inside, like a lamp, in which his gaze, now turned to low, gleams in all its power. Otherwise the curved breast could not dazzle you so, nor could a smile run through the placid hips and thighs to that dark center where procreation flared. Otherwise this stone would seem defaced beneath the translucent cascade of the shoulders and would not glisten like a wild beast's fur: would not, from all the borders of itself, burst like a star: for here there is no place that does not see you. You must change your life.About Bruce HermanBruce Herman is a painter, writer, educator, and speaker. His art has been shown in more than 150 exhibitions—nationally in many US cities, including New York, Boston, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Houston—and internationally in England, Japan, Hong Kong, Italy, Canada, and Israel. His artwork is featured in many public and private art collections including the Vatican Museum of Modern Religious Art in Rome; The Cincinnati Museum of Fine Arts print collection; The Grunewald Print Collection of the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; DeCordova Museum in Boston; the Cape Ann Museum; and in many colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada.Herman taught at Gordon College for nearly four decades, and is the founding chair of the Art Department there. He held the Lothlórien Distinguished Chair in Fine Arts for more than fifteen years, and continues to curate exhibitions and manage the College art collection there. Herman completed both BFA and MFA degrees at Boston University College of Fine Arts under American artists Philip Guston, James Weeks, David Aronson, Reed Kay, and Arthur Polonsky. He was named Boston University College of Fine Arts Distinguished Alumnus of the Year 2006.Herman's art may be found in dozens of journals, popular magazines, newspapers, and online art features. He and co-author Walter Hansen wrote the book Through Your Eyes, 2013, Grand Rapids, Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing, a thirty-year retrospective of Herman's art as seen through the eyes of his most dedicated collector.To learn more, explore A Video Portrait of the Artist and My Process – An Essay by Bruce Herman.Books by Bruce Herman*Makers by Nature: Letters from a Master Painter on Faith, Hope, and Art* (2025) *Ordinary Saints (*2018) *Through Your Eyes: The Art of Bruce Herman (2013) *QU4RTETS with Makoto Fujimura, Bruce Herman, Christopher Theofanidis, Jeremy Begbie (2012) A Broken Beauty (2006)Show NotesBruce Herman on Human Identity as MakersWe are created in the image of God—the ultimate “I Am”—and thus made to create.“We are made by a Maker to be makers.”To deny our creative impulse is to risk a deep form of spiritual unhealth.Making is not just for the “artist”—everyone is born with the capacity to make.Theological Themes and Philosophical FrameworksInfluences include Martin Buber's “I and Thou,” René Girard's scapegoating theory, and the image of God in Genesis.“We don't really exist for ourselves. We exist in the space between us.”The divine invitation is relational, not autonomous.Desire, imitation, and submission form the core of our relational anthropology.Art as Resistance to Consumerism“We begin to enter into illness when we become mere consumers.”Art Versus PropagandaCulture is sickened by passive consumption, entertainment addiction, and aesthetic commodification.Making a loaf of bread, carving wood, or crafting a cocktail are acts of cultural resistance.Desire“Anything is resistance… Anything is a protest against passive consumption.”Art as Dialogue and Submission“Making art is a form of prayer. It's a form of entering into relationship.”Submission—though culturally maligned—is a necessary posture in love and art.Engaging with art requires openness to transformation.“If you want to really receive what a poem is communicating, you have to submit to it.”The Transformative Power of Encountering ArtQuoting Rilke's Archaic Torso of Apollo: “You must change your life.”True art sees the viewer and invites them to become something more.Herman's own transformative moment came unexpectedly in front of a Rothko painting.“The best part of my work is outside of my control.”Scandal, Offense, and the Cross in ArtAnalyzing Andres Serrano's Piss Christ as a sincere meditation on the commercialization of the cross.“Does the crucifixion still carry sacred weight—or has it been reduced to jewelry?”Art should provoke—but out of love, not self-aggrandizement or malice.“The cross is an offense. Paul says so. But it's the power of God for those being saved.”Beauty, Suffering, and Holy RiskEncounter with art can arise from personal or collective suffering.Bruce references Christian Wiman and Walker Percy as artists opened by pain.“Sometimes it takes catastrophe to open us up again.”Great art offers not escape, but transformation through vulnerability.The Fire and the Rose: T. S. Eliot's InfluenceFour Quartets shaped Herman's artistic and theological imagination.Eliot's poetry is contemplative, musical, liturgical, and steeped in paradox.“To be redeemed from fire by fire… when the fire and the rose are one.”The collaborative Quartets project with Makoto Fujimura and Chris Theofanidis honors Eliot's poetic vision.Living and Creating from Love, Not Fear“Make from love, not fear.”Fear-driven art (or politics) leads to manipulation and despair.Acts of love include cooking, serving, sharing, and creating for others.“The ultimate act of art is hospitality.”Media & Intellectual ReferencesMakers by Nature by Bruce HermanFour Quartets by T.

https://Art2Life.com - Have you ever wondered what happens when an artist decides to let curiosity lead the way? This week, we're diving deep into the world of photographic exploration with Arthur Drooker, a visual anthropologist who's made it his mission to capture the essence of diverse communities and environments.  From photographing skies in Sea Ranch, California, that evoke the paintings of Mark Rothko to documenting the unique gatherings of furries, Santa Claus impersonators, and even mermaids, Arthur's work is a testament to the power of curiosity—isn't it amazing how following your curiosity can lead to extraordinary creative journeys?  Arthur's work encourages us to see the world through a lens of curiosity and open-minded exploration. Join us as we explore the profound impact of curiosity and discover how this seemingly simple act can turn ordinary moments into extraordinary art. ================================ LISTEN IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN… [6:16] Art as a valuable form of personal expression and identity  [12:59] The inspiration for photographic creativity  [14:34] Photographing conventions builds unique community experiences  [20:03] Capturing spontaneous humanity in photographed moments  [24:57] Being consciously present and detached to capture meaningful moments  [34:22] The revelation that led to creating his Twilight book  [39:31] Curiosity leads to understanding and anticipation  [43:43] Unique Golden Gate Bridge photographs that show unseen perspectives  [47:45] Painters appreciate unique window reflection perspectives  ================================ RESOURCES MENTIONED Elliott Erwitt: https://www.elliotterwitt.com/ Conventional Wisdom by Arthur Drooker: https://www.arthurdrooker.com/conventional-wisdom-book/ Pie Town Revisited by Arthur Drooker: https://www.arthurdrooker.com/pie-town-revisited-2/ Twilight: https://www.arthurdrooker.com/twilight-2/ City Hall: https://www.arthurdrooker.com/city-hall-3/ 36 Views of the Golden Gate Bridge: https://www.arthurdrooker.com/the-bridge/ ================================= CONNECT WITH ARTHUR DROOKER Arthur's Website: https://www.arthurdrooker.com// Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/arthur_drooker/ ============================= CONNECT WITH NICHOLAS WILTON AND ART2LIFE: Get the Free COLOR TIPS PDF: https://workshop.art2life.com/color-tips-pdf-podcasts/  Follow the Sunday Art2Life Vlog: https://art2life.lpages.co/sign-up-for-the-a2l-vlog/  Follow Nicholas Wilton's Art on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicholaswilton/  Follow Art2Life on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/art2life_world/?hl=en  Subscribe on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Art2Life  #Art2Life #FineArt #AbstractArt #ModernArt #Contemporary

At the start of September, a massive chunk of the international art world descended on South Korea for a bounty of high-profile art offerings. The marquee event was Frieze Seoul, in its third edition, at the Coex convention center in the luxe Gangnam district, running alongside the long-established Korea International Art Fair. But they represented just one element of the action. All over Seoul, museums and galleries were opening big shows, angling for attention. Samsung's Leeum museum hosted an Anicka Yi blowout and a superb show of young artists curated by Rirkrit Tiravanija. The beauty giant Amorepacific welcomed Elmgreen & Dragset at a museum in the basement of its David Chipperfield–designed headquarters, while Gagosian set up shop with a Derrick Adams exhibition on the ground floor. Up above, local heavyweights came out swinging—PKM with Yoo Youngkuk, Pace with the potent pairing of Lee Ufan and Mark Rothko, and Jason Haam with Urs Fischer. Celebrities were everywhere. Parties were everywhere. No one seemed to be sleeping. Everyone was on the move. And the festivities were not confined to Seoul. The esteemed Gwangju Biennale inaugurated its 15th edition in that southern city the day after the fairs opened, a sharp, tough show curated by the Frenchman Nicolas Borriaud that ran alongside more than 30 national pavilions. And along the country's southern coast, the latest Busan Biennale also drew crowds, with more than 60 artists selected by its curators, Vera Mey and Philippe Pirotte. There was so much happening that it was impossible to see it all—even with a dedicated driver—which many VIPs had—and even if you were willing to forgo moments of rest. This week, Artnet Pro editor Andrew Russeth is joined by London-based reporter and co-author of the Asia Pivot newsletter Vivienne Chow to discuss the art, the food, and everything in between.

Is the creative process different in the fields of art, literature and music? In a podcast conversation, literature laureate Jon Fosse speaks about all three fields and how they are similar in many ways. American painter Mark Rothko is mentioned as a source of inspiration as well as art in general. We also get insights into Fosse's childhood where music was large part of his life. Today Jon Fosse enjoys a world of silence and avoids the noise of the world if possible. He describes his writing process, how he enjoys writing by hand with fountain pens and how a reader can tell if a book is written by hand or not. He also speaks about his relationship to God and religion. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Talk Art live at the Venice Biennale, presented by Burberry. Recorded at the St Regis Library, we meet leading artist Sir John Akomfrah CBE RA and Tarini Malik, the curator of the British pavilion 2024.The British Council is delighted to present Listening All Night To The Rain by John Akomfrah at the 60th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia 2024.The exhibition runs from 20 April to 24 November 2024.Exploring post-colonialism, environmental devastation and the politics of aesthetics, Listening All Night To The Rain is Akomfrah's boldest and most ambitious commission to date.The exhibition draws its title from 11th century Chinese writer and artist Su Dongpo's poetry, which explores the transitory nature of life during a period of political exile. Organised in a series of song-like movements, or ‘cantos', the exhibition brings together eight interlocking and overlapping multimedia and sound installations into a single and immersive environment that tells stories of migrant diasporas in Britain. It is the result of decades of extensive research by the artist and his team, using historical records to contextualise our experience of the present day.Listening All Night To The Rain weaves together newly filmed material, archive video footage and still images, with audio and text from international archives and libraries. The exhibition tells global stories through the ‘memories' of people who represent migrant communities in Britain and examines how multiple geopolitical narratives are reflected in the experiences of diasporic people more broadly.Each gallery space layers together a specific colour field, influenced by the paintings of American artist Mark Rothko, in order to highlight the ways in which abstraction can represent the fundamental nature of human drama.Listening All Night To The Rain positions various theories of acoustemology: the study of how the sonic experience mirrors and shapes our cultural realities. Akomfrah draws on an acute acoustic sensitivity influenced by a variety of formative experiences, from protests to club culture in 1970s-80s London. Each of Akomfrah's ‘cantos' is accompanied by a specific soundtrack, which layers archival material with field recordings, speeches and popular and devotional music. Extending the sense of hybridity in the filmic collages, Akomfrah's use of sound encourages us to consider the breadth of cultural identity in Britain more broadly.Follow @Smoking_Dog_Films, @AkomfrahJohn @TariniMalik, @BritishArts Presented by @BurberryThanks @Lisson_Gallery and @LaBiennaleLearn more at Lisson: https://www.lissongallery.com/artists/john-akomfrah Hosted on Acast.

The 2nd ever J-O-N Jon is Jon Hamm. He joins favorite guest Jon Gabrus who was the 1st J-O-N Jon guest to make it technically 3 Jons Don't Make a Right. Or do they? Are there rules for three Jons that are different from the Rightless regularity of Two Jons? Well, you wouldn't know it from the way Tall Jon drives. Left after left after left after left he takes, with Top Gun Maverick, Mad Men, Confess, Fletch's Jon Hamm in tow no less. His left-only driving flies in the face of what could be a really anarchic, chaotic episode, and ends up being a classic ep. Sometimes form is important to art. Had we colored outside the lines, no one would've blamed us, but by staying in line with one of the major ongoing themes of the podcast (left turns only) the podcast audience is held in the hosts hands. What works, works because it's framed, essentially by the audiences expectations of the podcast format, i.e. 2 Jons turning left in the Fartvan. Barring the fact that a third Jon (Mr. Hamm) bastardizes the integrity of the format, throwing the podcast into abstraction making it “too much”, it could've easily thrown the focus off of the movie star guest, and onto a randomness who's entertainment can and will end in hopeless depravity and human being transformed into robo-pigs at the least, Ladies and gentlemen, Mark Rothko sucks as a painter, but he definitely kept it boring as hell and never tried to impress. The Two Jons audience similarly maps their own experience onto the dumb canvas he slathered with stupid paint. Here, Jon D and Tall Jon and Jon Hamm “land the damn plane” with such precision, we reel from the episodes existence even as we engage with its content. A clean experience. We go by Jon Hamms old apartments and grab coffee! A classic!

In the mid-'90s, two high-end New York art galleries began selling one fake painting after another – works in the style of Jackson Pollock, Andy Warhol, Mark Rothko and others. It was the largest art fraud in modern U.S. history, totaling more than $80 million. Our first story looks at how it happened and why almost no one ever was punished by authorities.  Our second story revisits an investigation into a painting looted by the Nazis during World War II. More than half a century later, a journalist helped track it down through the Panama Papers.
