Neste episódio "National Gallery of Art: um dos crimes no mundo da arte", conto de forma resumida a história fascinante do roubo da National Gallery of Art em Washington, D.C. Em 1974, ladrões invadiu o museu e roubou 12 pinturas valiosas, incluindo obras de Rembrandt e Renoir. Durante décadas, as pinturas permaneceram desaparecidas, alimentando teorias e especulações. Surpreendentemente, em 1990, as obras foram encontradas na posse de um conhecido fugitivo da justiça, Robert Vesco. —————————— Conheça os cursos, assista as aulas gratuitas e entre para a lista de emails Arte Academia: arteacademia.com.br —————————— Mande uma alô no @emersonferrandini lá no Instagram —————————— Mande um alô por email: emerson@arteacademia.com.br —————————— Apoie o Arte Academia Podcast Se você NÃO está na América do Sul, apoie diretamente aqui no Spotify --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/arte-academia/support

On Friday I went down to the National Gallery of Art and man I came home in a funk. Usually, I come back super charged up and wildly inspired and just ready to get back into the studio, but Friday was not one of those days. I went down to have lunch with my friend Michelle and after lunch we walked through the Philip Guston show that just opened. I had never heard of Guston before and seeing his work was a very dramatic experience. So much so that after Michelle had leave to get back to work, I ended up going through the show again and taking a little more time on some of the pieces that really resonated with me the first time through. Before you enter the actual show, there's a short video playing on a loop that gives a little background on Guston's life—specifically his childhood as a Jewish immigrant in California, where the persecution of Jews and Blacks by the KKK caused massive trauma that would stay with him for the rest of his life and feature heavily in his art. On top of that, three days after his tenth birthday, his father hanged himself in the shed outside their house and Guston was the one who discovered the body. As a means of processing his childhood trauma, he taught himself to draw and at 14, he started to paint.

Welcome to episode 12 of season one of Resilient Conversations, a podcast by PartnersGlobal that explores different facets of civic space resiliency.

Tanya has appeared on the stages of Carnegie Hall in NYC, the Great Hall of The Moscow Conservatory in Russia, The National Cathedral and The National Gallery Of Art in Washington, D.C., Beethoven-Haus in Bonn, Germany, and many more.

This week: as the UN's climate emergency summit, Cop27, continues in Egypt, Ben Luke talks to Louisa Buck, The Art Newspaper's contemporary art correspondent—and the author of our online column about art and climate change—about international art initiatives responding to the crisis. Kaywin Feldman, the director of the National Gallery of Art (NGA) in Washington, DC, tells us about the museum's new $10m endowment fund for purchases of works by women artists. The historic gift, from the family of the gallery's first female president, Victoria P. Sant, will help the NGA fill gaps in its collection. And this episode's Work of the Week is Mother with Child on her Arm, Nude II (1906) by the German painter Paula Modersohn-Becker. The work is a highlight of Making Modernism, a show of German women artists that opens this weekend at the Royal Academy in London. The exhibition's curator, Dorothy Price, discusses this late painting in Modersohn-Becker's short but productive life.Making Modernism: Paula Modersohn-Becker, Käthe Kollwitz, Gabriele Münter and Marianne Werefkin, Royal Academy of Arts, London, 12 November-12 February 2023.

A former curator of contemporary and modern art at the National Gallery of Art and former director of the Carleton University Art Gallery and an adjunct professor of art history at both Carleton University and the University of Ottawa, she is well placed to write this definitive history of the transformation of the National Gallery of Art from the 1960s to the 1990s. As result of the leadership of three remarkable women directors, the National Gallery of Art has become one of the great art galleries in the world housed in a striking building that has become a landmark in the National Capital Region. The end result is a remarkable cultural history of the visual arts through the lens of the most important art gallery in the country.

Last week, the New York Times reported that the National Gallery of Art's Philip Guston retrospective, expected to travel to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Tate Modern in London, and Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, would be delayed by four years. The reasons are many, including the limited demographics of those who worked on an exhibition that is very much about race, as well as the current cultural climate. The decision has caused = reactions of indignation and anger in some art circles, causing others to be perplexed over what seems like an overreaction to the delay of an exhibition by a very well-known artist, who is frequently shown and exhibited in spaces the world over.In this episode, the director of the National Gallery, Kaywin Feldman, shares her thoughts on the decision, why it was important, and what the National Gallery of Art will do now.The music featured in this episode is the track “California Life" by Radiochaser.Subscribe to the Hyperallergic Podcast on Apple Podcasts, or anywhere else you listen to podcasts.

Byron Kim is a Brooklyn-based artist who works in an area known as the abstract sublime. Part of the permanent collections of the National Gallery of Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art, his minimalist paintings sit at the threshold between abstraction and representation, conceptualism and pure painting. Catherine and Juliana learn about Byron's original plan to become a poet (he switched to art, thinking it would be “easier”); his physician parents, who immigrated to New York back in the 1950s; the gigs that got him through his early years as a struggling New York artist (four words: Skadden Arps graveyard shift); his career breakthrough at the landmark 1993 Whitney Biennial; and his ongoing series known as “Sunday Paintings,” arguably his most personal work to date.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ode9nx0PdDUHosts: Juliana Sohn @juliana_sohn Catherine Hong @catherinehong100Executive Producer: Hj LeeEditor: AJ Valenteinstagram.com/kpodpodyoutube.com/koreanamericanstoryorg

Fine violins and cellos are more than musical instruments; they are also visual works of art. They exist in the visual art world in other ways as well. In 2015, I visited the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, where I was given a tour of the collection by Stephen Ackert, former curator of music, and Bruno Nasta, a jazz violinist who organizes the concert series that takes place each year inside the National Gallery. Stephen and Bruno showed me a number of paintings from antiquity to the 1840s in which a violin-style instrument played a significant part. Join me for this illuminating walk-about in one of our nation’s premier art museums. To see paintings talked about in the podcast  https://www.rosinthebow.org/national-gallery.html
