George explores friendship as a vital aspect of growth and learning in the spiritual life through the words of Jesus, a Rembrandt painting on the prodigal son's return home, and a poetic spin on the meaning and value of friendship to our everyday lives and relationships.SLIDES GEORGE READ IN OUR GATHERINGThis new kind of Father refuses to own us, demand our submission, or punish our rebellion. Father God is one who respects our freedom, mourns our alienation, waits patiently for our return... Sr. Sandra Schneiders, Jesuit School of TheologyThe dynamic of friendship is almost always underestimated as a constant force in human life. Friendship is the great hidden transmuter of all relationship: it can transform a troubled marriage, make honorable a professional rivalry and become the newly discovered ground for a mature parent-child relationship. David Whyte

Cuando aún estaba lejos, lo vio su padre, y fue movido a misericordia, y corrió, y se echó sobre su cuello, y lo besó» (Luc. 15: 20).Uno se los cuadros más emotivos que conozco lleva por título El regreso del hijo pródigo y se encuentra en el Museo del Hermitage de San Petersburgo (Rusia). Henri Nouwen describe así el impacto que le causó su descubrimiento: «La primera vi el cuadro de Rembrandt, en el otoño de 1963, toda mi atención fue captada por las manos del anciano padre, estrechando contra su pecho al hijo arrepentido. Esas manos hablaban de perdón, de reconciliación, de sanación, pero también de seguridad, de reposo, de regreso al hogar. Pero si esta imagen del abrazo revivificante de un padre a su hijo pudo afectarme tan profundamente fue porque todo mi ser deseaba más que nada ser acogido como el hijo pródigo. Este encuentro marcó el principio de mi propio regreso a Dios» (Le retour de l'enfant prodigue, Québec: Bellarmin, 1995, pág. 167).Después de toda una vida consagrada al servicio de los demás, Henri Nouwen concluye: «Cuando regresé a San Petersburgo, hace cuatro años, para volver a ver El regreso del hijo pródigo, no sospechaba que iba a tener que vivir yo mismo lo que estaba viendo. Me asombra constatar hasta dónde me ha llevado Rembrandt. Me ha llevado del joven arrodillado y harapiento al anciano de pie, inclinado hacia él, del lugar de quien recibe la bendición al lugar de quien bendice. Al observar mis manos, ahora envejecidas, sé que me han sido dadas para acoger a los que sufren, para posarse sobre los hombros de quienes vienen a mí, y sobre todo, para transmitir la bendición que procede del inmenso amor de Dios» (ibid., pág. 173).Quien ha vivido hasta el fondo la experiencia del perdón, sabe cuán importante es transmitirla a otros. Del propio Esaú se dice que, cuando vio a su hermano Jacob regresar al hogar, le perdonó tan profundamente sus engaños y fraudes que» «corrió a su encuentro y, echándose sobre su cuello, lo abrazó y besó» (Gén. 33: 4). Y Jacob, al verse perdonado tan generosamente, le rogó que lo aceptase de regreso al hogar, añadiendo: «Porque he visto tu rostro como si hubiera visto el rostro de Dios, pues que con tanta bondad me has recibido» (vers. 10).Señor, hazme capaz de ver el rostro de Dios en el de mis seres queridos, como el pródigo lo vio en su padre y Jacob en su hermano.

Alright, folks, buckle up because today we're diving into the wild world of art heists with a twist that'll leave you chuckling and gasping. Our main gig today? The infamous “Two Laughing Boys” by Frans Hals—yup, that same masterpiece has been swiped not once, not twice, but three times! We're talking about a tale that stretches from the late '80s to the present, where these cheeky chaps have become the poster boys for art theft drama. You'll hear about the shenanigans of a guy in a ski mask who broke in and held a couple hostage just to snag those paintings—talk about a paint job gone wrong! And as we navigate through these theatrical escapades, we'll also sprinkle in some fun facts about Hals and why his work still cracks us up four centuries later. So grab your snacks, sit back, and let's unravel this artful comedy of errors together!Get ready for a rollercoaster of a podcast episode that'll have you laughing, gasping, and maybe even a little bit outraged. We're diving deep into the wild saga of 'De Twee Lachende Jongens', a masterpiece by Frans Hals that just can't seem to stay put! Over the years, this cheeky painting has been swiped from the Hofje van Mevrouw van Aarde in Leerdam three times, and let me tell you, the stories behind each theft are juicier than a ripe Dutch cheese! We start with a thrilling recounting of the very first heist in 1988, where a masked bandit, armed and ready, decides that art should be free—his way! The audacity! And if you think that was the end of it, think again. Fast forward to 2011, and our beloved boys are off on another escapade, and then again in 2020! It's like they're the most wanted criminals in the art world, and we're here for the drama!But what makes this episode truly fascinating is how we weave in the rich history of Frans Hals. He was no ordinary painter; he's part of the elite club of Dutch masters who defined an entire era. We get into the nitty-gritty of his life, his style, and how his art reflects the jovial spirit of his time. It's not just about the thefts—oh no! We're exploring the broader implications of art theft on culture and heritage, asking tough questions about how we protect our treasures when even the most secure museums aren't safe. And let's not forget the humor—because if you can't laugh about a little art theft, what's the point? With a mix of humor, insightful commentary, and a dash of crime drama, this episode will keep you on the edge of your seat. Who knew art could be this exciting?

Ben Luke talks to Huma Bhabha about her influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Bhabha was born in 1962 in Karachi, Pakistan, and has been based in the US since 1981—she now lives in Poughkeepsie, New York state. She has achieved a profoundly individual figurative sculptural language, exploring the rich history of her medium while also looking to the future. Informed by ancient monuments, Modernist sculpture and an array of other artforms, Huma employs various sculptural traditions—from modelling with clay, to carving, to found-object assemblage—to create figures that are monumental yet vulnerable, otherworldly yet rooted in the vicissitudes of contemporary geopolitics. Alongside her sculptures, Huma has made similarly powerful work in two-dimensions, particularly in combinations of drawing and collage. She reflects on the early and ongoing impact of Rembrandt on her work, her fascination with Pablo Picasso and Robert Smithson, the influence of the writing of Amy Goodman and Roberto Bolaño and how she has responded to the films of Jean-Luc Godard and Jean Negulesco. She also gives insight into her life in the studio and answers our usual questions, including: what is art for?Huma Bhabha—Encounters: Giacometti, Barbican, London, until 10 Aug; Huma Bhabha: Distant Star, 13 June-26 July.

Linda Tugnoli"Art Night"Rai5Art Night – Il volto e l'animaIndagine sul ritratto femminileL'intelligenza artificiale ha un problema con le donne, in particolare, con il modo con cui crea immagini che dovrebbero rappresentarle. Molti osservatori hanno notato che tende a generare, qualunque sia il “promt”, cioè la richiesta, donne troppo perfette, ipersessualizzate, preferibilmente dai tratti occidentali. Nei suoi dataset si sono depositati pregiudizi e bias preesistenti, impliciti nei milioni di immagini con cui è stata nutrita. Lo racconta il doc “Indagine sul ritratto femminile”, in onda mercoledì 21 maggio alle 21.15 in prima visione su Rai 5 per l'Art Night di Neri Marcorè.L'arte ha aiutato a forgiare quest'immagine archetipica del femminile? O potrebbe, invece, rappresentare un antidoto alla standardizzazione dei canoni estetici oggi in atto? Una storia del ritratto femminile è un viaggio che dalle Veneri preistoriche senza volto giunge fino al ‘900, in cui gli artisti hanno utilizzato il ritratto anche per esplorare tematiche di genere, identità e potere, a volte sfidando le convenzioni sociali e le aspettative riguardanti il “bel sesso”. Un viaggio che attraversa quindi numerose tematiche, dall'evoluzione dei canoni di bellezza femminile, al ruolo della donna nella società e nell'immaginario artistico e letterario maschile, alla nascita di un'arte “al femminile”, a una storia del costume. Giada Pistilli, responsabile dell'etica per una piattaforma di intelligenza artificiale franco-americana, Hugging Face, con sede a Parigi, punta il dito contro i limiti e i bias relativi all'immagine femminile, ipersessualizzata e stereotipata, nell'AI e nel mondo di Internet in genere. Per l'arte preistorica, dove dominano rappresentazioni femminili della fertilità e della maternità, si visita il Musée d'Archéologie Nationale in Francia, a St. Germain-en-Laye, intervistando Catherine Schwab, responsabile delle collezioni paleolitiche e mesolitiche, sulla celebre Dama di Brassempouy, forse il volto più antico nella storia dell'arte europea con i suoi 25.000 anni. Per l'arte egizia, Christian Greco, Direttore del Museo Egizio a Torino parla dei ritratti di due bellissime regine, Nefertiti e Tye. Luana Toniolo, Direttrice del Museo Nazionale Etrusco di Villa Giulia a Roma e Vincenzo Bellelli, Direttore del Parco Archeologico di Cerveteri e Tarquinia, vanno in uno straordinario viaggio attraverso le rappresentazioni femminili nell'arte etrusca, sottolineando il diverso ruolo sociale della donna nel mondo etrusco rispetto al mondo greco-romano. Fabrizio Paolucci, responsabile della Collezione delle Antichità Classiche delle Gallerie degli Uffizi, a Firenze, racconta la meravigliosa Giulia di Tito, un capolavoro della ritrattistica romana del II secolo d.C. Si indaga, inoltre, su un interessante fenomeno seicentesco, “Le stanze delle belle”, quelle “serie” o collezioni di ritratti femminili che riunivano tutte le esponenti delle famiglie nobili, con Francesca Cappelletti, Direttrice della Galleria Borghese a Roma, che a questo tema così particolare ha dedicato un libro, con Francesco Petrucci, conservatore del Palazzo Chigi in Ariccia dove si conserva una delle rarissime Stanze delle belle giunte fino a noi e Veronica Ambrosoli, responsabile dell'Ufficio Conservazione del FAI, Fondo Ambiente Italiano, che apre le porte dello straordinario Castello di Masino, nel Canavese, che ospita una collezione di belle donne francesi. Con Cristina Mazzantini, Direttrice della Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, a Roma, si arriva fino alle soglie della modernità analizzando il fondamentale cambiamento del ruolo delle donne nella società tra ‘800 e ‘900, evidente nei volti affascinanti di Modigliani, Klimt o di Boldini conservati alla GNAM. Grazie a un accordo di collaborazione con il prestigioso Museo d'Orsay, a Parigi, che ospita la più importante collezione di opere d'arte della seconda metà dell'ottocento e in particolare dell'impressionismo, Sylvie Patry e Leïla Jarbouai approfondiscono il cambiamento forse più importante per il ritratto femminile nell'era moderna: la conquista di uno spazio autonomo da parte di artiste donne come Berthe Morisot, tra i fondatori del movimento impressionista, grazie alle quali finalmente acquista diritto di cittadinanza nel mondo dell'arte lo sguardo delle donne sulle donne. Anche tra i pionieri della fotografia, più o meno negli stessi anni, si possono annoverare diverse donne, come per esempio Julia Margaret Cameron, che, secondo Federica Muzzarelli, docente di Storia della Fotografia all'Università di Bologna, colgono con sorprendente rapidità e originalità le potenzialità proprie del nuovo mezzo, forse approfittando proprio della loro marginalità rispetto al mondo ufficiale della cultura e dell'arte.Il documentario, scritto da Linda Tugnoli e prodotto da Mark in video in collaborazione con Rai Cultura, è stato girato in Italia e in Francia integrando in modo sperimentale le tradizionali tecniche di ripresa e di grafica con tecniche di animazione con intelligenza artificiale. Art NightIndagini sull'autoritrattoViviamo nell'era del selfie: l'ultimo decennio ha visto la costruzione di un nuovo io, idealizzato, esibito e condiviso sui social; dappertutto nascono musei del selfie che predispongono sfondi appositi perché non ci basta più collezionare immagini di noi nel mondo. Secondo alcuni, questa nuova identità digitale rischia di svuotarci della nostra interiorità. L'arte è un punto di osservazione privilegiato su questo aspetto del mondo contemporaneo. Lo racconta “Indagini sull'autoritratto”, in onda in prima visione per l'Art Night di Neri Marcorè mercoledì 28 maggio alle 21.15 su Rai 5.L'autoritratto ha uno statuto assolutamente particolare all'interno della storia dell'arte: si trova all'intersezione di almeno tre elementi centrali: l'artista, la sua arte e la sua persona, intesa nel doppio significato del personaggio pubblico che l'artista intende mettere in scena e dell'individuo con la sua verità, con i suoi tratti distintivi, fisiognomici e caratteriali. Il compito di creare un proprio volto che resterà per sempre può far vacillare l'artista più sicuro di sé. A volte le facce non sono giuste, non hanno l'aspetto che dovrebbero avere: Van Dick, autore di austeri ritratti di nobili e di reali, sembra un bambino biondo; Delacroix così appassionato, così romantico, ha due baffetti a spazzola sotto un naso un po' antipatico; Degas ha un'aria un po' imbambolata; Rembrandt, nella serie di autoritratti più formidabile della storia dell'arte, non riesce a decidersi nemmeno sul suo colore d'occhi o di capelli, ma ci rivela che l'identità individuale è mutevole, come sono mutevoli le alterne fortune della vita e i segni che lo scorrere del tempo lascia sul corpo.C'è differenza tra un selfie e un autoritratto? Questo è stato il punto di partenza di questo viaggio, a Parigi, insieme a Dominique Cardon, sociologo del Médialab dell'università di SciencesPo.Il documentario, scritto da Linda Tugnoli e prodotto da Mark in video in collaborazione con Rai Cultura, è stato girato in Italia e in Francia integrando in modo sperimentale tecniche di animazione con intelligenza artificiale alle tradizionali tecniche di ripresa e di grafica.Linda Tugnoli vive tra Roma – dove lavora come autrice e regista di documentari, soprattutto per la Rai – e la campagna sabina, dove abita in un casale con il marito, tre figli, un orto, una serra e svariati cani di grossa taglia che periodicamente devastano l'orto e la serra. Ha contratto anni fa quello che gli inglesi chiamano il bug del giardiniere: una spiccata tendenza a parlare troppo di piante e di fiori. La forma del ghiaccio è il terzo romanzo dedicato alle indagini del giardiniere Guido.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Post-war wanderings and pilgrimages of the heart, a Rembrandt double-portrait and a poem for Béaltaine, with Denis Tuohy, Clare O'Dea, Barbara Leahy, Kerry Neville, Alan Cook and Lani O'Hanlon
On the quiet Labour Day weekend of 1972, three masked men executed a daring heist at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Scaling a tree and slipping through a skylight under repair, they descended into the museum, subdued the guards, and made off with 18 paintings and 39 pieces of jewelry—valued at $2 million at the time, making it the largest art theft in Canadian history.Among the stolen works was a rare Rembrandt landscape, along with pieces by Delacroix, Rubens, and Millet.Despite ransom negotiations and extensive investigations, only two items have ever been recovered, and the culprits remain unidentified.All our links:https://bio.to/canboringThis podcast is hosted two idiots and created purely for entertainment purposes.

In this episode, I dig into a question that's always lurking in the back of a portrait photographer's mind – what really makes light flattering? It's a term we all use, but what does it actually mean? Is it just about soft shadows and low contrast, or is it more about the connection between the subject and the photographer? I talk through this while reflecting on a busy week – from a stunning wedding at Head Saw House to a corporate shoot for Barclays, and a spontaneous portrait session that reminded me why I love this job. I also share some thoughts on the updated Mastering Portrait Photography book, which hits shelves in September, complete with fresh images and a whole new chapter on AI post-production. If you've ever wondered what makes a light truly flattering – and why it's about more than just the gear – this episode is for you. And as always, wherever you are and whatever you're doing, be kind to yourself. Cheers P.

Transcript Well, as I sit here in the studio, the sun is shining in through the windows and it's been a beautiful, beautiful week. I started it with a trip down to Devon with the in-laws. One great thing about being married to Sarah, whose family are from Plymouth, there are many great things about being married to Sarah. But one of the ones, in terms of geography, at least, is her family still lived down in Plymouth, in Devon, by the sea. So it was absolutely glorious to spend a couple of days down there walking the dog, drinking a beer, enjoying the sunshine, and the sun is still shining here right now. And on that happy note, I'm Paul. I'm very much looking forward to a barbecue, and this is the Mastering Portrait

Annamaria Bava"Da Botticelli a Mucha"Sale Chiablese, Musei Reali di TorinoNelle Sale Chiablese dei Musei Reali di Torino, la mostra DA BOTTICELLI A MUCHA. Bellezza, Natura, Seduzione, un viaggio nella seduzione e nella bellezza espresse attraverso il mito, la natura e l'universo femminile, da sempre principali soggetti della creazione artistica.Con oltre 100 opere tra dipinti, disegni, sculture antiche e oggetti d'arte provenienti dai Musei Reali di Torino, dalle Gallerie degli Uffizi e da molte altre prestigiose istituzioni, la mostra spazia da magnifiche statue e bassorilievi archeologici di età romana, passando da Botticelli e Lorenzo di Credi – di cui vengono messi a confronto due incredibili capolavori – proseguendo con opere rinascimentali; un excursus per temi che toccano il mito, il fascino dell'antico, la natura e l'universo femminile, fino ad arrivare all'inizio del Novecento con la seduzione delle opere di Alphonse Mucha, maestro dell'Art Nouveau.Tra i capolavori in mostra, la Venere di Botticelli della Galleria Sabauda e la Dama con l'unicorno di Luca Longhi da Castel Sant'Angelo.La mostra contiene anche preziosi focus su figure femminili straordinarie quali la Contessa di Castiglione, figura emblematica di fine Ottocento, nobildonna di rara bellezza e seducente agente segreto, o ancora principesse e regine di Casa Savoia.Vengono anche svelate, per la prima volta, le indagini diagnostiche realizzate sulla Venere di Botticelli, da cui si potranno scoprire i pensieri e i ripensamenti dell'artista.Contestualmente, ospite d'onore della mostra, lo splendido Volto di fanciulla, disegno autografo di Leonardo da Vinci realizzato tra il 1478 e il 1485 circa, proveniente dalla Biblioteca Reale ed esposto nel nuovo Spazio Leonardo al primo piano della Galleria Sabauda.Prodotta dai Musei Reali di Torino e da Arthemisia, la mostra è curata da Annamaria Bava.Anna Maria Bava, ha conseguito il dottorato di ricerca in Storia e critica d'Arte e il post-dottorato di ricerca in Storia dell'arte moderna presso l'Università di Torino.

Read OnlineWhen Jesus had risen, early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven demons. Mark 16:9The first person recorded in Scripture to whom Jesus appeared was Mary Magdalene. Notably, she was the one out of whom Jesus cast seven demons. Being possessed by seven demons has traditionally been understood to mean that she was completely possessed. Prior to Jesus freeing her, satan and His demons had completely taken over her will by her free submission to evil. And yet, it was to her, a woman with such a horrible past, that Jesus chose to give the honor of His first appearance. What an amazing fact!Everyone has a past. Some have been grave sinners. Others, like Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, have never committed a mortal sin. Obviously, the beauty of a soul like Saint Thérèse is deeply admirable, and such a soul will be greatly rewarded in Heaven. But what about the grave sinner? What about those like Mary Magdalene who have lived horribly sinful lives? What does our Lord think about them?The fact that Mary Magdalene is the first person recorded in Scripture to have seen the risen Lord should tell us much about how Jesus views a person who has greatly struggled with serious sin but has later overcome that sin and turned wholeheartedly to our Lord. Sin is demoralizing. When unrepented, it leaves a loss of dignity and integrity. However, even after one has repented, some people will continue to struggle with unhealthy guilt and shame. And for some, these struggles can become a weapon by which the evil one tries to discourage them from feeling worthy to serve our Lord with zeal and passion.But the truth in the mind of God is that repentant sinners are true jewels and beautiful in the eyes of our Lord. They are worthy of the greatest honors. God does not dwell on our past sin. Instead, our past sin, when it has been repented of and forgiven, will be an eternal sign of the love and mercy of God.How do you deal with your past sin? First, have you completely acknowledged it, repented of it and sought forgiveness from our Lord? If so, does it still haunt you? Does the evil one still try to remind you of your past and strip away your hope in the mercy of God? Reflect, today, upon the most grievous of your past sins. If you haven't yet confessed them, then do so as soon as you can. If you have, try to see your soul through the eyes of God. God does not see your past sins with anger and disgust. Rather, He sees only the depth of your conversion, sorrow and repentance. And, to Him, this is holy and beautiful. Ponder the beauty of your repentant heart and know that, as you do, you will be looking at your own heart through the eyes of God.My most merciful God, You love the sinner and hate the sin. You love me in ways that are beyond my understanding. Help me to understand how deeply You love my heart when I completely repent. And help me to see my heart only through Your eyes. I thank You for Your love and mercy, dear Lord. Help me to love You all the more.

This chapter, immortalized in a historic painting by Rembrandt, tells how Belshazzar, drinking at a royal feast from the Temple vessels, is startled by the appearance of a hand, writing an indecipherable script on the wall of the banquet hall. Why could he not read it? What did it mean? And what is the meaning of this enigmatic story?

An artist's job is to create works that attract attention or evoke emotion -- a dramatic story, a colorful moment, or an inspiring person. It's no wonder that throughout history, painters and sculptors have chosen to depict Jesus; He makes great subject matter for art. Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Donatello, Rembrandt, and thousands more have helped us visualize the life, ministry, and miracles of Christ. Join Horizon for The Master's Touch as we examine some of history's greatest masterpieces and the powerful Biblical moments that inspired them.

We invite you to come with us inside one of America's most interesting art museums – an institution that is BOTH an art gallery and a historic home.This is The Frick Collection, located at 1 East 70th Street, within the former Fifth Avenue mansion of Gilded Age mogul Henry Clay Frick, containing many pieces that the steel titan himself purchased, as well as many other incredible works of art from master painters such as Rembrandt, Vermeer, Goya, Turner, and Whistler.Frick himself had a rather complicated legacy. As a master financier and chairman of Andrew Carnegie's massive steel enterprise, Frick helped create the materials for America's railroads and bridges. But his intolerance of labor unions led to a bloody confrontation in the summer of 1892, making him, for a time, one of the most hated men in America.New Yorkers' love for the Frick Collection, however, remains far less complicated. The institution, which as been a museum since 1935, allows visitors to experience the work of the great master painters in an often regal and intimate setting, allowing people to imagine the fanciful life of the Gilded Age. The Frick Collection reopens this month after an extensive renovation (temporarily relocating the collection to the Breuer Buildiing for a few years) and we've got a sneak preview, featuring Frick curator and art historian Aimee Ng.

In this first episode of the new series of A brush with…, Ben Luke talks to the painter Celia Paul about her influences—including writers as well as contemporary and historic artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Paul was born in 1959 in Trivandrum, India, and now lives in London. She makes intense yet ruminative paintings of people close to her, the spaces in which she lives and works, and landscapes of poignant significance. Her paintings are made from life but are pregnant with memory, poetry and emotion, which she imbues in her distinctive painterly language. Her art possesses a rare tranquillity in which one perceives deep feeling; Paul wrote in her memoir that her paintings are “so private and personal that there's almost a ‘Keep Out' sign in front of them”. At once a singular figure yet also connected to strands of recent and historic figurative painting in Britain, she has been admired widely throughout her career but only recently been recognised as a major figure in British art of the past 40 years. She discusses the fact that she began painting before she knew about art, but when she was introduced to Old and Modern Masters, she discovered El Greco and Paul Cezanne, who remain important to her today. She also reflects on the compassion in Rembrandt and Vincent van Gogh, the stillness and scale of Agnes Martin and the elementary power of the novels of the Brontë sisters. She also describes her response in painting to the artists of the School of London, including Lucian Freud, with whom she was once in a relationship, and Frank Auerbach.Celia Paul: Colony of Ghosts, Victoria Miro, London, until 17 April 2025.

An artist's job is to create works that attract attention or evoke emotion -- a dramatic story, a colorful moment, or an inspiring person. It's no wonder that throughout history, painters and sculptors have chosen to depict Jesus; He makes great subject matter for art. Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Donatello, Rembrandt, and thousands more have helped us visualize the life, ministry, and miracles of Christ. Join Horizon for The Master's Touch as we examine some of history's greatest masterpieces and the powerful Biblical moments that inspired them.

"starring" in commercials for hot pockets where they recorded slow-mo footage of a microwave being shot with an anti-materiel rifle. he wasn't even firing the rifle. he just said "whoa" a lot. i'll expect your apology and correction in the thread shortly.

Episode No. 697 features curator Sarah Humphreville and author Marisa Anne Bass. With Eric Crosby, Humphreville is the co-curator of "Gertrude Abercrombie: The Whole World is a Mystery." The exhibition survey's Abercrombie's synthesis of surrealism, landscape, portraiture and still-life, and is the most comprehensive presentation of the artist's work to date. It is at the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh through June 1 before traveling to the Colby College Museum of Art. An excellent catalogue was published by the Carnegie and DelMonico Books. Amazon and Bookshop offer it for $50-55. Bass is the author of The Monument's End: Public Art and the Modern Republic, which was recently released by Princeton University Press. The book finds the origin of many of today's questions around monuments and memory within the early modern Netherlands. Among the artists Bass discusses are Rembrandt, Dirck van Delen, Hendrick de Keyser, Spencer Finch, Thomas Hirschhorn, and more. Bass is a professor at Yale University. Her previous books include Insect Artifice: Nature and Art in the Dutch Revolt and Jan Gossart and the Invention of Netherlandish Antiquity. Amazon and Bookshop offer "The Monument's End" for $20-42.
