Podcasts about provenance research

We rejoin Herman Daly in the  late 1970s - a tumultuous time for our renegade economist.  Partnering with theologian John Cobb Jr., Daly began to rebuild economics from the ground up, reframing it around values, community, and the planet that sustains us.Woven through this intellectual journey are stories of faith, family, and friendship that helped Daly persevere. We hear how he sparked a global community of scholars and inspired whole new movements, ranging from wellbeing and regenerative economics to the circular economy and doughnut economics.Featured in this episode:Gaya Herrington, Wellbeing economist & thought leaderJennie King, Senior Fellow at ISDPeter Victor, Ecological economist & author of Herman Daly's Economics for a Full WorldSandrine Dixson-Declève, Global Ambassador for The Club of RomeRobert Costanza, Ecological economistTerri Daly Stewart, Senior Occupational Therapist, and Herman and Marcia's eldest daughterKaren Daly Junker, Senior Manager of Provenance Research at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and Herman and Marcia's youngest daughterBrian Czech, Executive Director of CASSERob Dietz, Program Director at the Post-Carbon Institute and co-host of Crazy TownColvis Cavalcanti, Ecological economistKaty Shields, Regenerative economist, and co-creator/host of Tipping PointKatherine Trebeck, Political economistThank you to the Daly family for their generous support in sharing Herman's story, and to Barbara Barros, C40 Global Head of Adaptation Finance, for voicing Marcia Daly's email in this episode.Thank you also to our series consultants and fact checkers, Peter Harnik, Rob Dietz, and Peter Victor, who also graciously supplied the interview tape with Herman Daly, recorded in 2022.Visit the Cities 1.5 podcast page on UTP's website for the media citations used in this episode.If you want to learn more about the Journal of City Climate Policy and Economy, please visit our website: https://jccpe.utpjournals.press/ Cities 1.5 is produced by the University of Toronto Press and Cities 1.5 is supported by C40 Cities and the C40 Centre for City Climate Policy and Economy.

We follow Herman from the lecture halls of Louisiana to the forests of Brazil – and through a period of global upheaval and personal transformation. Herman was profoundly shaped by the realities of inequality and ecological fragility in the Global South. These experiences helped crystallize his vision of a steady-state economy; one that operates within the planet's ecological limits and prioritizes human wellbeing and ecological boundaries over endless growth.With reflections from his family and followers, this episode captures the moment Daly's thinking moved from quiet resistance to creating economic theories that would go on to have a truly global influence. Featured in this episode:Colvis Cavalcanti, ecological economistBrian Czech, Author of Shoveling Fuel for a Runaway Train and executive director of the Center for the Advancement of the Steady State EconomyRob Dietz, Program Director at the Post-Carbon Institute, co-author of Enough is Enough, and co-host of Crazy TownTerri Daly Stewart, Senior Occupational Therapist and Herman and Marcia's eldest daughterKaren Daly Junker, Senior Manager of Provenance Research at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and Herman and Marcia's youngest daughterDenis Lynn Daly Heyck (Deni), Professor Emeritus of Spanish language and literature and Herman's sisterKaty Shields, Regenerative economist and co-creator/host of Tipping PointPeter Victor, Professor Emeritus of ecological economics & author of Herman Daly's Economics for a Full WorldKate Raworth, Author of Doughnut Economics and co-founder of the Doughnut Economics Action LabThank you to the Daly family for their generous support in sharing Herman's story.Thank you also to our series consultants and fact checkers, Peter Harnik, Rob Dietz, and Peter Victor, who also graciously supplied the interview tape with Herman Daly, recorded in 2022.Visit the Cities 1.5 podcast page on UTP's website for the media citations used in this episode.If you want to learn more about the Journal of City Climate Policy and Economy, please visit our website: https://jccpe.utpjournals.press/ Cities 1.5 is produced by the University of Toronto Press and Cities 1.5 is supported by C40 Cities and the C40 Centre for City Climate Policy and Economy.

Herman Daly was a founding father of ecological economics: more than half a century ago, he warned that the pursuit of endless economic growth was driving ecological collapse and harming society, as well as harming society - and came up with a plan to unbreak our economy. Dismissed by mainstream economists, pushed out of the World Bank, and even targeted by menacing, anonymous threats, Daly paid a high price for challenging our unsustainable global system. But now, as climate breakdown accelerates and the failures of neoliberalism become increasingly apparent, his ideas are more relevant - and more vital - than ever. Now is the time for his theories and his legacy to get the attention they deserve. In the opening episode, we hear from the person who knew his story best: himself. Featuring never-heard-before interviews with Herman, alongside reflections from a whole host of experts, scholars and collaborators. We trace his childhood battle with polio, his whirlwind romance with his wife, Marcia and the moment Herman discovered the first piece of the puzzle in solving the intertwined economic, societal and climate crises: the concept of uneconomic growth.Featured in this episode:Peter Victor, Professor emeritus of ecological economics and author of Herman Daly's Economics for a Full WorldGaya Herrington, Wellbeing economist & thought leaderJoshua Farley, Professor of ecological economicsKatherine Trebeck, Political Economist & writerDenis (Deni) Lynn Daly Heyck, Professor Emeritus of Spanish Language and Literature and Herman's sisterTerri Daly Stewart, Senior Occupational Therapist, and Herman and Marcia's elder daughterKaren Daly Junker, Senior Manager of Provenance Research at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and Herman and Marcia's younger daughterThank you to the Daly family for their generous support in sharing Herman's story, and to Barbara Barros for voicing Marcia Daly's email in this episode.

Episode 68 of ‘All About Art': Looted? Missing? Authentic? Why Art Provenance Research Matters with Angelina Giovani In this episode, I sat down with Angelina Giovani, art historian and provenance researcher based in London, and the co-founder of Flynn & Giovani Art Provenance Research with Dr. Tom Flynn. In 2023 she launched the Art Market Academy, a dedicated online environment offering online courses in provenance research and due diligence, now subtitled in over 15 languages. Listen on to hear me ask Angelina about what provenance research entails, along with whose responsibility it is to ensure due diligence is conducted and the research is done. We chat about emerging technologies and how this is changing the landscape of provenance research, along with the practicalities of the process of research, how collectors can mitigate and assess the risk of selling works or knowing when deeper research is needed, and more.  Thank you Angelina for coming on the podcast!  You can check out Flynn and Giovani Art Provenance Research here: https://www.flynngiovani.com/ and you can see the work Angelina is doing with the Art Market Academy here: https://www.artmarketacademy.com/ --- YOU CAN SUPPORT ALL ABOUT ART ON PATREON HERE: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/allaboutart⁠ FOLLOW ALL ABOUT ART ON INSTAGRAM HERE: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/allaboutartpodcast/⁠  --- ABOUT THE HOST: I am an Austrian-American art historian, curator, and writer.

Distinguished panelists from across the country will contextualize the Museum's exhibition on 14th century tapestries. Dr. John Marciari is the Curator of European Art and the Head of Provenance Research at The San Diego Museum of Art. He is responsible for the planning and implementation of the iteration of The Invention of Glory at the Museum. Dr. Barbara von Barghahn is Professor of Art History at George Washington University in Washington D.C. Since receiving her Ph.D at New York University, Dr. von Barghahn has been a prolific writer, contributing texts to many important art historical publications and authoring multiple books, including Age of Gold, Age of Iron: Renaissance Spain and Symbols of Monarchy. Her talk is titled "Defining the Perfect Prince in an Age of Chivalry: Portugal's Moroccan Campaign and the Pastrana Tapestries." From Jan van Eyck's Ghent Altarpiece commemorating the 1415 conquest of Ceuta to Flemish tapestries that documented the 1471 taking of Tangier, this lecture will consider: "portraits of power" in the context of chivalric ideals; the imaging of triumph in the clash of arms; the palatine display of tapestries as a visual chronicle of a contemporary epic; and the fame accrued from Portuguese expeditions to North Africa which initiated an age of navigation and a transformation of the medieval world picture. Will Chandler is an Independent Curator and the owner of Chandler Art Consulting Services. A former Curator of Decorative Arts at SDMA, in the 1980s he directed the conservation of the Museum's early 18th Century "Pillage" tapestry from the "Second Art of War Series." His presentation will illustrate the circumstances and techniques that led to this tapestry's creation, its expressions of continuity with the Pastrana Tapestries and of the artistic changes that followed them, and the variety of ways in which it has been interpreted since its arrival in San Diego in 1926.

Yo-Yo Ma investigates the relationship between music and visual art. In this film, the talented cellist plays the music of Bach in a virtual prison based on the Carceri, the imaginary prisons found in the etchings of Giovanni Battista Piranesi. Along the way, audiences hear from architect Moshe Safdie and others while learning of Piranesi's only built church project, the Santa Maria del Priorato. The exhibition, Piranesi, Rome, and the Arts of Design, includes a complete set of the prison etchings as well as an innovative 3-D video projection based on them. Before the film, Dr. John Marciari, Curator of European Art and Head of Provenance Research, will give a lecture about the haunting, nightmarish world of Piranesi's prisons, architectural fantasies that demonstrate the dark side of Piranesi's imagination. Prefiguring the dark imagining of the Romantic era, the Carceri are thought to have been the later model for everything from M.C. Escher's designs, to the city of Fritz Lang's Metropolis, to the moving staircases of Harry Potter's Hogwarts. www.TheSanDiegoMuseumofArt.org Video produced by Balboa Park Online Collaborative
