Podcast appearances and mentions of Sarah Thornton

Sarah Thornton is a sociologist known for her writing on art, design, and society. Sarah's latest book, Tits Up: What Our Beliefs About Breasts Reveal About Life, Love, Sex, and Society, is a fascinating account of the cultural, social and personal significance of breasts, an organ we think we understand but actually know surprisingly little about. In this podcast Sarah takes us on a fascinating journey from the neon-lit stages of strip clubs to the quiet halls of milk banks, from plastic surgery operating rooms to the boardrooms of lingerie designers. Along the way, Sarah unpacks the role of breasts in feminism, religion, fashion and media, revealing how they have been shaped and reshaped by history and society, debunking an age-old lopsided view.

Why are women's bodies, particularly breasts, both a source of empowerment and controversy? They are commodified, censored and debated. Sociologist and author Sarah Thornton joins us to explore how women's bodies shape entire industries—from healthcare to fashion. Sarah also dives into her new book Tits Up: What Sex Workers, Milk Bankers, Plastic Surgeons, Bra Designers, and Witches Tell Us about Breasts.

This week Thibault talks with best-selling author Sarah Thornton about her latest book "Tits Up: Tits Up: What Sex Workers, Milk Bankers, Plastic Surgeons, Bra Designers, and Witches Tell Us about Breasts", which was listed as one of the New Yorker Best Books of 2024. After her own botched breast reconstruction surgery, Thornton delved into what breasts/tits/titties mean to women all over the world from the sex work industry to witches and everyone in between.

The contemporary art world is nothing if not confusing. It is simultaneously deeply frivolous, and takes itself way too seriously. Its business dealings combine total mystification with conspicuous consumption, and the exact mechanisms by which one type of art gets celebrated above another are very often impossible to figure out. If you've ever struggled to make sense of it all, the journalist, Bianca Bosker's new book is worth picking up. It's called Get the Picture, A Mind-Bending Journey Among the Inspired Artists and Obsessive Art Fiends who Taught Me How to See, and it joins books like Anthony Hayden Guest's classic True Colors from 1998 and Sarah Thornton's Seven Days in the Art World from 2008, as an entertaining behind-the-scenes chronicle of art, though in a very different and maybe even more confusing moment. Bosker previously wrote Original Copies (2013) about architecture in China that replicates famous world monuments, and Cork Dork (2017), where she went inside the world of fine wine to try to decode its rituals. For Get the Picture, Bosker inserted herself in the striving, less-visible layers of the art industry, just beneath the glamorous images. She works the booth at a satellite fair in Miami where a gallery's very survival hinges on a few sales. And as a studio assistant for a painter whose success becomes a major headache as speculators start flipping her work. In some ways, Get the Picture will confirm all of the worst stereotypes about the contemporary art industry, and in others is the story of someone who slowly learns how to look past the caricatures by throwing herself into the thick of it, finding her own way to appreciate some of art's more eccentric values.

Sociologist and author Sarah Thornton hadn't really given too much thought to her breasts for most of her life. But in 2018, after undergoing a preventative double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery, she began to consider the social and cultural significance of them. Thornton's latest book Tits Up investigates the fixation with mammary glands, drawing on insights from sex workers, milk bankers, plastic surgeons, witches, and bra designers.

After years of biopsies, best-selling author Sarah Thornton made the difficult decision to have a double mastectomy. But, after her reconstructive surgery, she was perplexed: What had she lost? And gained? Blending sociology, reportage, and personal narrative with refreshing optimism and wit, her new book Tits Up has one overriding ambition―to liberate breasts from centuries of patriarchal prejudice. She sat down with Aimee Morris to tell us more. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Sarah Thornton had never thought much about her breasts. But after undergoing a double mastectomy, the sociologist found herself thinking deeply about what she'd lost as a woman – and the complicated relationship our society has with breasts. Thornton's experience inspired her to speak with scores of people, from plastic surgeons, to bra designers and milk bankers. She joins Piya Chattopadhyay to share what she learned from them about the power and politics of breasts, as explored in her book Tits Up.

Host Piya Chattopadhyay speaks with Toronto Star immigration reporter Nicholas Keung and University of Toronto political science associate professor Phil Triadafilopoulos about changing attitudes towards immigration in Canada and beyond, The New York Times global economy reporter Peter S. Goodman outlines the risks facing the global supply chain, our Sunday Documentary explores how Ukraine's new draft measures are sparking tensions for people inside and outside the country, and sociologist Sarah Thornton uncovers the power and politics of breasts.Discover more at https://www.cbc.ca/sunday

An innovative investigation of the five strange worlds that worship women's chests. After years of biopsies, sociologist and bestselling author Sarah Thornton made the difficult decision to have a double mastectomy. But, after her reconstructive surgery, she was perplexed: What had she lost? And gained? An experienced sleuth, she resolved to venture behind the scenes to uncover the social and cultural significance of breasts. Join us in person or online as Thornton talks with Michael Lewis and draws on what she learned from latest book, which excavates the diverse truths of mammary glands from the strip club to the operating room, from the nation's oldest human milk bank to the fit rooms of bra designers. Thornton has insights from plastic surgeons, lactation consultants, body-positive witches, lingerie models, and “free the nipple” activists to explore the status of breasts as emblems of femininity. She examines how women's chests have become a billion-dollar business, as well as a stage for debates about race, class, gender and desire. Blending sociology, reportage, and personal narrative with refreshing optimism and wit, Thornton has one overriding ambition―to liberate breasts from what she says are centuries of patriarchal prejudice.

Anita enlightens us with her insights into her own menopausal journey during which she realised there was little support & understanding out there for women at the time. As a consequence of that, together with two other colleagues, she set up a workshop tailored specifically for women called ‘Embracing Menopause'. During our conversation she discusses the physiological impact of menopausal symptoms including brain fog and social anxiety, while sharing simple lifestyle choices that can help us ease them. She also discusses the importance of being open and honest about our symptoms in order to create a societal shift and a new vision of menopause as a time of immense personal growth and fulfilment. ...... Find out about the ‘Embracing Menopause' workshops at: https://www.soulmoves.ie/events-new (in-person events in an intimate group setting held in Galway, West of Ireland) Next workshop coming up on Sunday 29th January 2023 ...... Anita's suggestions to check out: https://www.wellnesswarrior.ie https://www.redschool.net/podcast ...... Biography Anita Murphy is a Wellness Coach and a Professional Photographer. In her mid 40s she experienced severe mental health issues, only to discover three years later that her symptoms were linked to the onset of peri-menopause. Her continuing challenges, coupled with the lack of information and awareness in the public domain and among some GPs, has lead her to want to create more awareness and support in our communities and workplaces to empower menopausal women through this transition. She completed the “Workplace Wellness Post Grad” in NUIG (National University of Galway Ireland) in 2021. Her final project was a program to support menopausal women in the workplace. She has co created the “Embracing Menopause” workshop with her colleagues Laragh Cunningham & Sarah Thornton and they have just recently successfully completed their first in person workshop. ..................

When a jewellery maker and fashion designer joined forces to put on an event they'd actually want to sell their wares at in 2008 little did they know they were launching the start of a sustainable business. Brooke and Sarah are the co-founders of Finders Keepers, where communities come together to shop, explore and discover the very best from designers, makers and entrepreneurs in the country. They pioneered curated design markets in Australia and then navigated through COVID times of 2020 and beyond where face-to-face events disappeared. In this conversation we talk about the role of community; and in times of crisis why listening to your community is key to survival. We unpack courageous creativity - what is it, and what it takes to live a creative life, and to support conscious purchasing of hand-made sustainably sourced products. We also touch on navigating leading a growing business in a busy world and how Brooke and Sarah re-charge their own energy. This year Brooke and Sarah have launched Creative Business Summits driving even more inspiration and conversation with their community of creative makers. Most of us want to support small business and they have created a platform to do this. You can find out more at: finderskeepers.com.

Dr. Sarah Thornton, a writer and sociologist of art, talks about what makes an artist an artist, their role in society, and their need to be active agents of their own career. I’m very pleased to be interviewing Dr. Sarah Thornton on the show today. Sarah has written extensively about the art world and art market for many publications, including The Economist. She has also written three critically acclaimed books, each of which dives deeply into issues of authenticity, believability and cultural value. In her book 33 Artists in 3 Acts, one of the research questions was: what is an artist? “The great thing about being an artist is that it is self-defined,” she explained to me, “but it’s self-defined within reason. So, not anybody can just say ‘I’m an artist’ and have credibility and the social role and status of an artist.” The issue of artistic credibility, she says, hinges on the fact that being an artist is not just a job, but an identity. So artists have to prove their worth in the eyes of the public, collectors, and museum curators.

Finders Keepers is less like a market and more like a festival. With over 150,000 attendees every year, the Finders Keepers is the largest Design Market in Australia combining design, art, good food, live music and a fun community spirit all under one awesome roof. Founded in 2008 by Brooke Johnston and Sarah Thornton, the aim for the market has always been simple; to create a supportive environment for like-minded, independent designers to sell their work.   Now based in sunny Byron Bay, Sarah and Brooke dropped by the studio to talk through the highs (and a few lows) of building this incredible business and community Australia wide. https://onewildride.co/podcast/2019/5/brooke-johnston-sarah-thornton-finders-keepers

Grayson Perry goes backwards in the archive in search of the moment the avant-garde died. It's a century since Marcel Duchamp submitted his artwork called Fountain to an exhibition staged by the Society of Independent Artists in New York. Fountain was a urinal -- not a painting of a urinal or a sculpture, just a urinal, bought from a Manhattan hardware store and signed R.Mutt. The Society of Independent Artists rejected Duchamp's provocation and the original object was lost. Nowadays Duchamp's urinal is canonised as the fountainhead of conceptual art and the high water (closet) mark of the avant garde. Replicas of the Fountain grace museums around the world - emblems of the avant-garde spirit of experimentation and confrontation. Somewhere in the intervening years though, something changed - contemporary art lost its ability to shock and critique. We're still hopelessly drawn to the idea of art that's 'cutting edge', 'ground-breaking', 'revolutionary'. But is that possible at this point -- haven't we seen it all before? Maybe the death knell was sounded when the Saatchi Gallery opened on the South Bank? Or with the advent of protest and radical chic in the 1960s? Maybe it was when the CIA funded the abstract expressionists? Or when the post-war art market began to reign supreme? Or when the Museum of Modern Art opened its doors in 1927? Or maybe it was all a matter of style the very moment Duchamp's Fountain was conceived? Featuring Brian Eno, Kenneth Goldsmith, Nnenna Okore, Cornelia Parker, and Sarah Thornton. Producer: Martin Williams.

'They believe what they say in the moment they say it.' And then the moment is gone, and someone's stuck with a desiccated horse's head or a painting of Jesus framed in piss.

In Siri Hustvedt’s latest novel The Blazing World (Sceptre) artist Harriet Burden, consumed by fury at the lack of recognition she has received from the New York art establishment, embarks on an experiment: she hides her identity behind three male fronts who exhibit her work as their own, to universal acclaim. ‘All intellectual endeavours’ Burden herself remarks pugnaciously at the novel’s opening ‘fare better in the mind of the crowd when the crowd knows that somewhere behind the great work … it can locate a cock and a pair of balls.’ Siri Hustvedt was joined in conversation by the art critic Sarah Thornton, author of Seven Days in the Art World. The pair discussed the book's themes of art, gender bias and subterfuge, lighting upon neuroscience, the nature of celebrity and wine-tasting along the way.
