Today's guest has made a career playing with some of the most avant garde musicians in the world. But he didn't start off with music in mind. Welcome drummer Bob Bert to the podcast. He grew up in a house that wasn't super musical. In fact, his father, Angelo, was more into sports than music. He was so into sports that he won the Heisman trophy in 1943. But Bob had other ideas. Bob played some drums but was more interested in fine art, eventually printing for Andy Warhol. His music career began when his wife volunteered him for an impromptu gig. Bob talks about how he got the Sonic Youth gig, was fired, and then rehired. He talks about some other projects he was in and how Thurston Moore named one of them. Bob discusses his time in Pussy Galore, Chrome Cranks, Jon Spencer & The Hitmakers, Lydia Lunch's Retrovirus, and more. Bob has released his first true solo album called Beach Bongo Bloodbath. And the consensus is…it's a fun album. It's a mix of covers and originals and highlights Bob's singular take on music, like his guitar-free version of Mountain's Mississippi Queen. It's out on Bar None Records. Find it, buy, it, stream it, whatever you need to do. And follow Bob @therealbobbert on Instagram.

Further reading: https://elephantartgallery.com/blogs/meet Desmond Morris with his favorite Congo painting: Peter/Pierre Brassau and some of his paintings: The so-called donkey painting, and I described it wrong in the episode: Pockets at work: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. Back in the early days of the podcast I did an episode about animal musicians, which for a long time was my favorite episode. Today let's visit a similar topic, animals who are visual artists. Back in the 1950s through the 60s, researchers studying how humans make art studied monkeys and apes who were taught how to use a brush and paints. The studies caught the public's fancy and it became something of a fad to own a piece of art created by an animal—whether it was a monkey or ape, an elephant, or some other animal. One of the earliest big name animal artists was a chimpanzee named Congo. Zoologist Desmond Morris, who was studying creativity in apes and humans, and who was also an artist himself, offered Congo a pencil and paper when he was two years old in 1956. Congo enjoyed drawing and especially liked to draw circles. When Morris eventually gave the chimp paints, Congo was even more enthusiastic. But while he was considered a novelty, he only had one art exhibition while he was alive, a 1957 event arranged by Morris. It wasn't until 2005 that the remaining paintings were exhibited, along with the art of some other apes, and some of them sold for thousands of dollars. A new exhibit appeared in December of 2019 in the Mayor Gallery in London. One interesting thing is that Morris worked with several apes to see how they drew and painted, but only Congo showed enthusiasm and skill for art. Congo died of tuberculosis in 1964 when he was only ten years old. Also in 1964, a French avant-garde artist named Pierre Brassau exhibited four of his paintings at an art show in Sweden. No one knew who Brassau was, but his paintings were critically acclaimed—except for one critic who wrote, “Only an ape could have done this.” Ahem, yes. That is correct. The artist turned out to be a West African chimpanzee named Peter who lived in a zoo in Sweden. The whole thing started with a Swedish journalist who apparently wasn't much of a fan of modern art. The journalist persuaded a zookeeper to give Peter a canvas, paints, and brush. At first Peter just ate the paint, but eventually he started making marks on the canvas. The journalist ultimately chose four of the paintings and submitted them to the exhibition under the name Pierre Brassau. One of the paintings sold for the equivalent of about $750 today. But animal artists making modern art isn't limited to the 1950s and 60s. In 1905 a painting by an unknown artist, J.R. Boronali, went on display in a Parisian salon. It didn't cause any kind of stir, though, because it was nothing special, until 1910 when word got out that the painting had been made by a donkey. According to the story, an art critic tied a paintbrush to the donkey's tail and fed the donkey carrots, which made it wag its tail, which dabbed paint on a canvas. I've seen the painting, though, and it seems clear that a human artist prepped the canvas by slapping a coat of background paint on it that resembles a red sea and blue sky. There are some dabs and blobs of paint over that in yellow and red, presumably from the donkey. In this case, of course, the donkey wasn't trying to paint a picture and didn't even know what was going on behind it, just that it was getting lots of carrots. An avant-garde Russian school of art named itself The Donkey's Tail in 1912 as a result, though, so that's pretty neat. More recently, a capuchin monkey named Pockets has become a big-name artist in the animal world. Pockets was donated to a Canadian animal sanctuary after his owner finally realized that capuchin monkeys are wild animals and don't actually make very good pets. One of the volunteers at the sanctuary gave Pockets the nickname Warhol because of his white hair, which reminded her of the artist Andy Warhol. That gave her the idea to give Pockets some paints and see what he would do with them. It turns out that Pockets really likes to paint. In 2011 the sanctuary held an exhibit of his paintings to help raise money, and since then his paintings have been exhibited in art shows around the world. He's collaborated with a human artist, who basically paints something and then gives the canvas to Pockets to add to it. His art recently appeared on the cover of an album released by a member of Depeche Mode too. Not all animal artists are apes or monkeys, though. Bini the Bunny stars in a lot of videos where he plays basketball, dances, plays the guitar, and does a lot of other things you would not expect a bunny to do. He also paints. Bini, of course, has been trained to make certain movements, including picking up a paintbrush in his mouth and moving it upward with the paint-covered bristles sometimes touching a canvas, but sometimes not. Bini isn't choosing what paint colors to use and doesn't even really look at the canvas while he's working. He's cute, but he's not making art spontaneously the way Pockets and his predecessors do. Elephants also make art, holding a paintbrush with the tip of the trunk. The most famous elephant artist was named Ruby, an Asian elephant who lived at the Phoenix Zoo in Arizona in the United States, although she was born in Thailand in 1973. When her keepers saw her using a stick to draw in the dirt, they gave her painting supplies to see what she would do with them. Ruby enjoyed painting, choosing her colors carefully, and some of her paintings sold for as much as $25,000. Ruby died from complications of a failed pregnancy in 1998, sadly. So many artists die young. Sometimes you'll see videos of elephants painting a picture of an elephant, but these aren't spontaneously created. The elephant has always been taught to make the same brush strokes, and sometimes the training is cruel. An authentic elephant painting looks abstract, with lines and dots that the elephant places in a shape it finds pleasing, not to resemble something specific. This is the same with ape and monkey artists too. If you listened to the episode about animal musicians, you will probably remember the Thai Elephant Orchestra. Well, the same conservation center that hosts the elephant orchestra also has some elephant artists. The Elephant Art Gallery sells paintings made by various of the elephants who live in the sanctuary. They're allowed to choose their own paints and decide if they want to paint at all that day. Elephants who don't show interest in learning to paint don't have to try, and instead get to do different activities. The main difference between human art and art made by non-human animals is that humans naturally create representational art without being taught. Little kids draw wobbly stick people with big smiles and no one has to show them how. Humans can make abstract art, of course, but a skilled abstract artist chooses colors, textures, and patterns carefully to invoke a feeling in the people who look at the finished painting. This is different from a little kid finger-painting who is just having fun making a mess, although of course you can make art with finger paints too. Animals never create representational art spontaneously, and we can't know if their choice of colors, textures, and patterns is intended to invoke a particular feeling because we can't ask them. (I mean, we can ask them but they wouldn't understand the question and we wouldn't get an answer.) But it does seem obvious that animals who enjoy painting and who make deliberate marks on paper or canvas are taking pleasure from the process of creation. And when you come right down to it, that's the most important thing about making art. Finally, you may remember the court case about the monkey selfie from 2014. Nature photographer David Slater was taking pictures in a nature reserve in Indonesia when he stepped away from his camera, which was set up on a tripod. A Celebes crested macaque monkey investigated the camera and ended up taking a number of photos, one of which was a selfie that became almost instantly famous online. Slater tried to claim copyright to get paid for the photograph as it became more and more popular. In August of 2014 the United States Copyright Office decided that the owner of camera equipment can't claim copyright for a photo taken by an animal. Neither can the owner of an animal who takes a photograph or otherwise produces artwork. Only a human can hold copyright, but if the human doesn't actually create the art, they don't get the copyright. Hey, this would be a great day to make a drawing or a painting! Thanks for your support, and thanks for listening!

Leading up to the 250th anniversary of American independence, Rosebud is giving you a series of interviews recorded in New York City. Our first is with the sharpest observer of New York life - the wit, conversationalist and writer, Fran Lebowitz. In this brilliant interview, Fran tells Gyles about her family, who moved to the US from Russia and Eastern Europe to escape the Jewish pogroms. She talks about her happy childhood, cycling on her "freedom machine" around her pretty hometown in New Jersey, where her father owned an upholstery business and her mother had aspirations to be Fred Astaire's dance partner. She tells Gyles about being punished for being a chatterbox at school, about knowing she was gay from a young age, and about moving to New York to become a writer. She talks about Andy Warhol and being paid to write porn. She talks about smoking, the internet, and her enormous collection of books. Finally, Gyles awards Fran a medal from the Oscar Wilde Society, in recognition of her brilliance as a talker. As you might expect, this is a fabulous conversation. It's well worth your time. Enjoy this. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Beauty is one of the most celebrated words in art and faith conversations, but it may also be one of the most misunderstood. Is beauty simply what pleases the eye, or is it something deeper? Can beauty exist alongside suffering, loss, and the grotesque? And what happens when we settle for beauty that comforts us while avoiding the realities that transform us?What if beauty requires darkness, mystery, and even lament in order to reveal its deepest meaning? In this roundtable discussion, Stephen Roach and guests Corey Frey, Liv Ross, and Scott Aasman wrestle with beauty not as sentimentality or surface appeal, but as a force capable of holding together truth, goodness, suffering, and hope.KEY TOPICSWhy beauty can feel inauthentic when it is removed from struggleThe original meaning of "glamour" as a veil designed to trap and deceive, and why that etymology still matters for artists todayHow the three transcendentals — goodness, truth, and beauty — function like a trinity: remove one and the others collapse into vanity, brutality, or cover-upWhat Edmund Burke and Kant meant by the sublime, and why terror and beauty belong together rather than apartThe real context behind Dostoevsky's phrase "beauty will save the world," drawn from The Idiot, and why stripping it from that argument changes everythingThomas Kinkade's stated goal of painting a world where the Fall never happened, and what his private life and Andy Warhol quote reveal about the cost of bypassing Holy SaturdayWhy form without substance is essentially pornographic, and how true beauty requires the material and the spiritual coming togetherHow artistic isolation stunts creative roots the way a tree grown in perfect conditions falls in the first storm and why community, friction, and disagreement strengthen both the artist and the workAbout the Guests:Corey Frey is a multidisciplinary artist, writer, and co-founder of The Well Collaborative, a community dedicated to creativity, curiosity, and culture.

Tudo o que disser aqui pode ser usado contra si. E não é assim, e cada vez mais, em toda a parte? Parece que temos alguma coisa contra a vida. Por princípio, e contrariamente ao que se diz. Só isso explica a falta de ar, a falta de vidas absurdas. No seu estado de demência mais benigna, percebe-se como o mundo cedeu a uma imensa nostalgia do passado. Ninguém saberia, contudo, situá-lo. Na verdade, são doenças da nossa falta de memória. Os delírios de uns débeis. Mas vez por outra lá se cruza connosco um desses seres descarrilados, vendendo beijos com sabor a cerveja, contrariando a ideia de que tudo só se passa muito longe, no cu do mundo. Ainda antes de isso ser tido como um acto político, era vista com o batom a transbordar sempre um pouco dos lábios. O desastre torna-se sugestivo a partir de certa altura, e há quem se apegue a ele, desenvolva por esses sinais uma estima imensa. A realidade, no fundo, interessa-nos muito pouco. Só a partir do momento em que alguém se dispõe a recuperar velhas cassetes, as gravações soluçantes, ficando buracos que é preciso compensar. Uma canção que toca ao longe e que quase se deixa reconhecer, e também a partir de frases cortadas uma linguagem que nos parece desconhecida, feita de réplicas oferecidas em lugares esquecidos. É preferível quando alguém só conhece uma versão parcial, e faz dela o seu todo. Não se põe a investigar todas as circunstâncias, porque a partir de certa altura a enxurrada dos acontecimentos devasta qualquer possibilidade de segurar uma narrativa mais firme. «Não ser amada é um acto de terror», disse ela. Só ter para mostrar a quem a visita naquele quartinho infecto «um coração cheio de moscas negras». E, nas paredes, balouçando, «um alfabeto de más experiências.» É o de sempre: histórias gaguejantes, overdoses, comprimidos para dormir, os bibelôs para compor uma solidão de deserto, e a clara sensação de que tudo caminha para o seu fim. São as impressões o que respira no meio dos relatos. Todos sabemos secretamente que as histórias estão mortas há muito. Hoje, só nos sonhos não nos sentimos ali despejados, desfeitos. Só nos sonhos, as impossibilidades não se apresentam como impossibilidades. Michael Marder diz-nos que após a segunda morte de Deus, convencionalmente chamada secularização, o vazadouro global incita à expiação do ser através da massa em energia, potencialidade pura, inflamável e explosiva. «A existência é tolerada desde que nada permaneça quieto, os seres não se detenham no interior dos seus limites próprios e o próprio ser acelere a caminho do nada.» Por isso prefiro ler como quem tem a sensação de ouvir alguém perdido num transe, como Sara Stridsberg a recolher os sinais da passagem de Valerie Solanas por este mundo. Falar-nos daquele quarto do Hotel Bristol, em abril de 1988, daquela cama que «é um deserto em chamas de tudo o que não fizeste e de tudo o que fizeste mal, profunda como dez mil braças de água de oceanos de tudo o que esqueceste e de todas as vezes que te esqueceste de dizer adeus.» Morreu ali, aos 52 anos, como uma personagem de quem se dizia que não tinha os parafusos todos. Mais um nome a juntar a uma lista, que poderia seguir assim: Valerie. Marilyn. Roslyn. Ulrike. Sylvia. Há tantos narradores empenhados em chegar ao fundo da verdade, apenas para descobrirem que à medida que se aproximam as frases se tornam vazias, tomadas de uma irresolução, de uma fundamental inépcia retórica. Por isso, as histórias são só uma força de atiçar, manter a tensão, para levar as pessoas a confiarem naquilo que já viveram e sabem. Assim sendo, que importa que o narrador exagere ou minta? Que importa saber quem é o narrador? Cada um está entregue ao que viveu já e a partir disso está disposto a imaginar. «A tua memória é um passador», diz uma delas. Todos se esfalfam por abordar um material genuíno, mas acaba por valer mais essa voz capaz de demorar-se até ficar com os pensamentos encardidos, a roupa suja, revelar as suas sujas intenções, a sua baixeza. No fundo, para que alguma coisa sobreviva a este mundo precisa ser arrancada às suas circunstâncias, aquilo que fica na memória dos que registam apenas os contornos mais frios, essa cultura geral da indiferença. Solanas ficou conhecida apenas como mais outra histérica, a feminista radical que, nos anos sessenta, disparou três tiros sobre Andy Warhol, depois de ter participado num dos seus filmes. Os dois primeiros tiros falharam o alvo, mas o terceiro perfurou-lhe o esófago, o estômago, o baço, o fígado e os pulmões. Um ano após o atentado, que a levou a ser internada com um diagnóstico de esquizofrenia, Warhol posou para uma fotografia com a camisa arregaçada, exibindo as marcas das cirurgias. Aquelas cicatrizes deram-lhe a gravidade que lhe permitiam afastar-se da figura de um patético cadáver disponível a tudo para somar mais uns minutos. Havia ali um certo triunfo, uma dimensão insinuante e provocatória. «Vemos Warhol a assimilar o facto da sua própria morte, a processá-lo com a mesma ligeireza inquisitiva e penetrante que animava o resto da sua obra. Se Solanas está presente na fotografia, é apenas sob a forma de um ponto de interrogação, objecto do olhar perplexo de Warhol», registou um artigo numa revista middlebrow, como eles dizem. «Ele tinha controlo excessivo sobre a minha vida», terá dito Solanas ao polícia a quem se entregou, como explicação para o ataque. Se não morreu dos ferimentos provocados pelos disparos, as cirurgias subsequentes a que Warhol foi submetido levaram a passar demasiado tempo na companhia dos moribundos, e era essa vulnerabilidade excessiva que instigou o terror que acabaria por matá-lo, tendo mais tarde recusado procurar tratamento para uma infecção na vesícula biliar até já não haver nada a fazer. Hoje, nada senão esse fetiche dos factos sustenta as maiores ficções, que permitem a alguns estar muito confiantes dos seus esforços para esclarecer a época, e tantas vezes esquecem-se como a condenação deste tempo é a forma como leva «todos os seres a verem-se confundidos nos amontoados caóticos dos refugos, esmagando e sendo esmagados, sobrepondo-se e arrasando-se uns aos outros» (Marder). O jornalismo não pode dizer-nos muito pois não está em condições de ir até ao fundo, e o fundo são as nossas próprias vidas. Solanas tinha escrito um manifesto para a sua «associação para esquartejar os homens» (SCUM, Society for Cutting Up Men). Quando ela foi internada no hospital psiquiátrico, dois tipos que a conheciam encheram-se de dinheiro com uma edição do manifesto. Dez anos depois, quando foi ela a publicá-lo já ninguém estava interessado. Ficou célebre o arranque: «A vida nesta sociedade é, na melhor das hipóteses, tremendamente enfadonha, e nenhum dos seus aspectos é minimamente relevante para as mulheres. Às mulheres civilizadas, responsáveis, que procuram o estímulo, resta apenas a possibilidade de derrubar o governo, eliminar o sistema económico, implantar a automatização integral e aniquilar o sexo masculino. Temos agora possibilidades técnicas de nos reproduzirmos sem o contributo dos homens e de produzir apenas mulheres. Temos de começar imediatamente a pôr isto em prática. Imediatamente. Conservar os homens não tem sequer o mais duvidoso sentido no plano biológico. Os homens são um desastre biológico: o cromossoma Y é um cromossoma X incompleto, ou seja, um gene com uma composição deficiente de cromossomas. Por outras palavras, o homem é uma mulher incompleta, um fracasso ambulante, falhado logo no estádio do gene. Ser homem é ser uma falha, é ser emocionalmente limitado. A masculinidade é uma deficiência, e os homens são aleijados emocionais. (…) contudo, os homens que são racionais não irão protestar e espernear, nem fazer um alarido patético, vão simplesmente deixar-se ficar sentados, calmamente, desfrutar o espectáculo e cavalgar as ondas até soçobrarem.» Naturalmente, este espectáculo não encherá a plateia do Tivoli. Neste episódio fomos levados pela Margarida Davim a pensar o que pode ser ainda um jornalismo capaz de definir por si mesmo um horizonte muito além dos enredos de conveniência, capaz de nos oferecer alguma coisa além desse chá para os submissos. Fomos postos a par do turbulento e incerto percurso em que está lançada essa balsa daqueles poucos que conseguiram resgatar a Visão, num dos episódios mais conturbados e que melhor ilustram os bastidores daquele que em tempos se tinha como o quarto poder e que hoje anda por aí lançado aos caídos, devendo o melhor de si à obstinação de uns quantos que talvez resista mais à base do desespero do que um resto de utopia requentada.

In Shaping Sounds, visionary music producer Robert Margouleff shares his stories of pushing the boundaries of musical innovation, art, and technology while helping create some of the most significant and influential music of our time.Beginning on the set of his first film, Ciao! Manhattan, with Andy Warhol superstar Edie Sedgwick, Margouleff captures the tragic beauty of New York's East Village and Warhol's Factory as he discovers a powerful new way to score his movie: the Moog synthesizer. This discovery leads him to meet a studio engineer who would become his long-time partner, Malcolm Cecil, with whom he would collaborate to invent the world's largest analog synthesizer, 'TONTO' (The Original New Timbral Orchestra). Together, Margouleff and Cecil used TONTO to help unleash Stevie Wonder's genius on his era-defining classic albums Music Of My Mind, Talking Book, Innervisions, and Fulfillingness' First Finale.In legendary studios like Electric Lady and the Record Plant, Margouleff became a pioneering producer and engineer for artists like Billy Preston, Jeff Beck, DEVO, The Isley Brothers, and David Sanborn. A true sonic innovator, he was an early adopter of immersive audio and surround, developing new mixing techniques for home theaters that brought some of Hollywood's biggest blockbusters to life.Shaping Sounds is so much more than a chronicle of music history. It's a story about creativity, collaboration, and artistic courage. Margouleff interweaves his personal experiences with the teachers, friends, mentors, and influences that shaped him, revealing how empathy and curiosity fueled his life's work. This memoir is a rich and entertaining narrative of a key period in music history that brings readers deep into the world of record and film production and will inspire new generations of music-makers and dreamers.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Rae is doing a deep dive on 1973's Flesh for Frankenstein, often known as Andy Warhol's Frankenstein, directed by Paul Morrissey. Filmed during Warhol's 'Silver Factory' time in NYC, this film is a vast departure from the tried and true Frankenstein myth. Full of sex, gore, and over-the-top filmmaking, this is an absolute delight.

So folks ask me to do more nonfiction on this podcast, and while I admit that it is a bit of a stretch to call today's book pure nonfiction, I at least think that it's closely aligned. It's not a biography, though. Consider it more of a personal memoir from 1962. In essence, it's the true story of Andy Warhol's extended family, written by one of his nephews. Sadly, James Warhola didn't continue to make much in the way of children's books (though he did make a sequel to this book called Uncle Andy's Cats). We discuss everything from David Bowie's depiction of Andy in the film Basquiat, to creepy ventriloquist dummies, to what you should do if roughly a dozen members of your extended family show up at your door (answer: put them to work).

Party favours full of drugs, a hose-down rubber sex balcony, and Bianca Jagger on a real horse. It's often said that the brightest flames burn for the shortest time – and by god did Studio 54 burn bright. Under the helm of Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager, 254 West 54th was the single coolest place on the planet – and set the blueprint for exclusive nightclubs to this day. Bowie, Warhol, the Jaggers, and every other celebrity you could think of felt lucky to set foot on its gigantic dance floor. But what comes up, must come down, and it only took three years for the greatest club on earth to come unstuck. This is the story of sex, drugs, and disco – the rise and fall of Studio 54.--Patreon - Ad-free & Bonus EpisodesYouTube - Full-length Video EpisodesTikTok / Instagram

AP correspondent Julie Walker reports on a father daughter team of art forgers and some of the dupes they passed off.
Jesus can easily be relegated in our minds to specific areas of our lives or in popular art. We see depictions of him in paintings, music, and films. But, Jesus is more real and more present to us than any artistic representation can reproduce. This blogcast explores “Jesus Alive: Encountering the Truth of Christ" from the Ad Infinitum blog, written by Brady Baylis and read by Jonathan Harrison.I think there is something special about a cover—about taking a song, a painting, or a movie and recreating it within the modern frame of mind. Aretha Franklin's bold and unapologetic “Respect” is a perfect example, as she interprets the song as a Black woman in the 1960's. As is Jimi Hendrix's “All Along the Watchtower,” in which he narrates the song with hauntingly beautiful guitar riffs. In visual art, Andy Warhol recreates the portrait of Mao Zedong with a messy array of bright colors—an unusual depiction of the dictator. Finally, modern movies, headlined by the Cohen Brothers' True Grit, give life to old characters and stories, recreating them for new audiences.However, even the Beatles, the most covered band of all time, cannot compete with the millions of interpretations of Jesus Christ. Thousands of artists have painted Christ crucified or the Madonna and Child. Everyone from Van Gogh, Basquiat, or da Vinci have painted Jesus Christ, each in their own manner. It can be mind-numbing to try to flip through them all, viewing each painting, alien to the others, and, oftentimes, to us. There are always two questions to ask when discussing art: “What is this artist trying to say?” and “What do we think he or she is trying to say?”These questions matter much more when investigating faith. In a special way, how artists of all disciplines—including sculptors, writers, or directors—interpret Jesus will affect us. Every Catholic, no doubt, thinks of Jesus through some piece of art or another, but Jesus is more than just a collection of paints, words, or images. Jesus is alive. It is tempting to trap Him in a Caravaggio, an El Greco, or even in the Passion of the Christ—to prevent Him from challenging us. Jesus as represented in art cannot call us out in our sins; He cannot tell us the hard truths we need to wrestle with. Even further, we should not trap Jesus in the Church or solely in the Mass. Yes, we are oftentimes challenged in specific ways during the Mass, especially when a priest gives a difficult homily. It can be easy, however, to selectively hear the priest, interpreting him and hearing only what we want to hear. We often want a sanitized Jesus, one that affirms us and makes us feel good. But while Jesus resides in the tabernacle and comes to meet us in every celebration of the Eucharist, He cannot be left there. Jesus wants to encounter us personally in order for us to help others encounter Him.Jesus always challenged His disciples to worship, act, and believe in accordance with truth. Jesus was not “sanitized” or acting in the “proper way” when He overturned the tables of the money changers; He was not “sanitized” when He described the narrow way; and He surely was not clean and tidy when He died on the Cross. Jesus defied our expectations. He was filled with passion for God's truth. While He is Beauty itself, Jesus often made His listeners look away as they were unable to embrace the unsavory truth that can be hard to swallow.I enjoy going to Washington's National Gallery of Art or New York's MET, but next time I see Christ there, I will be reminded that He is not trapped in the golden walls of the frame. Jesus is alive, living in the Eucharist and in others. While it is beautiful to witness Jesus in the arts, we must remember that Christ lives in the audience, the museum goers. While the beauty of the art itself is mesmerizing, Christ is alive in flesh, both on the altar and in people who remind us that, while beautiful, Christ's message is a challenge.

This week we dive into the legendary career of the Rolling Stones with our panel of musical experts, Dave Boll and Michael Kay! We start out by discussing the band's early influences like blues artists Muddy Waters and Chuck Berry. We also talk about the band's incredible longevity including the secret to Keith Richards' immortality. We do take a quick detour to discuss the latest news regarding Rush, before sharing a hilarious story about a Keith Richards and Chuck Berry documentary, and reminiscing about the iconic Andy Warhol-designed cover for Sticky Fingers. Finally, we touch on the internal dynamics of the group—including the time Charlie Watts allegedly punched Mick Jagger, the origin of the band's name and much, much more! Enjoy!

Today, on our inaugural episode of Second Thought, Suzy Weiss sits down with one of the most influential people in YouTube's history: Casey Neistat. Casey has millions of followers and billions of views to his name—and he saw early on that YouTube would change everything. It certainly changed his own life. In this conversation, Casey talks about riding the wave of the YouTube tsunami, his love of old technology, and how his career illustrates Andy Warhol's infamous prediction that “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.” Plus: the creative power of brothers, Lena Dunham, and who inherited the mantle of Jackass. He also answers some harder questions: Has the rise of the creator economy and the parasocial relationships that came with it been a net positive? Is it possible to win the algorithm without exploiting your audience? Can artistic expression survive the onslaught of artificial intelligence? On all fronts, the man who saw around the corner of our last media revolution isn't so sure. Subscribe to Second Thought for new episodes every week.

Comme toujours, nous parlerons de l'actualité dans la première partie de l'émission. Aujourd'hui ne fait pas exception. Nous nous intéresserons tout d'abord aux élections en Hongrie, où le parti Tisza de Péter Magyar a remporté les deux tiers des sièges au Parlement. Ces résultats mettent fin à 16 ans de règne du régime illibéral de Viktor Orbán et de son parti, le Fidesz. Notre discussion suivante portera sur un rapport de l'ONU selon lequel la guerre en Iran pourrait plonger 32 millions de personnes dans la pauvreté. Notre section scientifique sera consacrée à une étude qui a découvert que les personnes mariées ou ayant déjà été mariées ont un risque de cancer plus faible que celles qui ne se sont jamais mariées. Et nous conclurons la première partie de l'émission en célébrant la Journée mondiale de l'art. Chaque année, cette journée met en avant la création artistique et son rôle dans l'éducation et la diversité culturelle, qui sont essentiels à la culture et au progrès. Le reste de l'émission d'aujourd'hui sera consacré à la langue et à la culture françaises. Notre point de grammaire de la semaine sera : The Superlatives. Nous parlerons de l'avertissement lancé par le parc national des Cévennes sur l'utilisation de l'IA par les randonneurs. Nous terminerons avec l'expression de la semaine : Passer l'arme à gauche. Quelques mois après sa disparition, un portrait exceptionnel de Brigitte Bardot par Andy Warhol va être mis aux enchères. Les ventes devraient s'envoler, car on y retrouve l'actrice au sommet de la beauté qui a fait sa célébrité. - L'exemple de la Hongrie montre que même les régimes les plus répressifs sont vulnérables - Selon l'ONU, la guerre en Iran pourrait plonger 32 millions de personnes dans la pauvreté - Selon une étude, le mariage est associé à un risque moins élevé de cancer - La Journée mondiale de l'art suscite un débat sur le déclin de l'art causé par l'IA - IA : Le parc national des Cévennes tire la sonnette d'alarme - Un portrait inédit de Brigitte Bardot par Andy Warhol bientôt vendu aux enchères

100 Paintings: An Artist’s Life in New York City by Rob Mango https://www.robmango.com/100-paintings-an-artist-life-in-new-york https://www.amazon.com/100-Paintings-Artists-Life-York/dp/0692263136 Equal parts monograph and memoir, 100 Paintings: An Artist’s Life in New York City is one man’s artistic journey from his native Chicago to a pioneering residency in Manhattan’s storied neighborhood of Tribeca. Rob Mango, as much an athlete as an artist, has explored New York City on foot since 1977–its architecture and its denizens, its streets and its harbors providing the former track star with the inspiration for much of his highly individualistic work. As noted in the foreword by art critic Robert Mahoney, ”Mango’s paintings can be seen as being produced by a man whose body was fed oxygen to a fantastical high while running through the city.” With more than 200 full-color artworks and photographs, this book documents Mango’s journey and the body of work he has created over the past four-plus decades. From the birth of Tribeca to the horrors of 9/11 and its aftermath, Mango reveals the details as only such a singular artist can. Along the way, he rubs shoulders with Wall Street titans, the art world’s up-and-comers, punk rockers, and such celebrated downtowners as Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Andy Warhol, Larry Rivers and Bob Dylan. A central hub of Tribeca was the Neo Persona Gallery, which Mango founded in 1984 to represent and exhibit the work of the neighborhood’s burgeoning art scene. Mango’s diverse body of work, depicted here, includes vividly imagined, surreal meditations on the artist in the city and abroad, animated by figures from his personal mythology. Drawings, assemblages, sculptures, paintings, and groundbreaking painted-sculptural hybrid works, from 1975 2014, represent Mango’s entire life as an artist, including stints in the Midwest, New Mexico, Paris, Prague, Venice, and Tuscany. Featured in this retrospective are a series of epic, large-scale paintings set in a fantastic New York, replete with the city’s iconic architectural landmarks, but populated by gods, warriors, shamans, and other figures drawn from many epochs and cultures. Also here are portraits of the famous and infamous, pastoral scenes from a rural Tuscan village, and Mango’s breathtaking series of nudes. About the author Interview originally published in Du Jour, Oct 21, 2014. What brought you to New York City in the ’70s, and how did the city influence you and your artwork? I quickly became aware that the center of the art universe was New York City. The fantasy of coming to [the city] and becoming part of it was launched by painters I encountered while roaming the halls of the Art Institute of Chicago as a teen–Rivers, Johns, DeKooning and Rauschenberg. My obsession with New York became so highly evolved that it sustained me long after I arrived. In many ways, the fantasy of New York exceeded the actual experience initially, which was, in a word, cruel. My Midwestern fantasy of New York sustained the creation of numerous major works, which blend realistic detail and imaginative or surreal invention, particularly “Millennium” and “Return to the City.”

A two-season black-and-white sitcom leaves a 60-year shadow, a band logo becomes more famous than the band name, and a random music reference boomerangs back into your week at the perfect moment. That's the lane we love: pop culture history that feels like real life, where classic rock stories sit right next to TV theme songs and the little memories that make certain tracks impossible to forget.We start with The Addams Family and why the characters, jokes, and visuals still land. From there we follow the thread into TV music history with Vic Mizzy, including his connection to Green Acres, and we detour into some old-school Hollywood facts that make you hear those familiar themes a little differently.Then we go bigger on music culture: the origin of the Rolling Stones tongue and lips logo, how it first appeared in 1971, and what inspired it. We also tip our hat to creators who don't always get the spotlight, like Chip Taylor (Wild Thing and Angel of the Morning) and arranger Ted Nichols, whose work helped define the sound of classic cartoons. Add a Minute With Jimmy on Andy Warhol and the Velvet Underground's Exploding Plastic Inevitable, plus reflections on Bowie, The Police, Hall and Oates, and INXS, and you've got a packed nostalgia podcast built for curious music fans.If you like music history, classic rock deep dives, and the stories behind the sounds, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave us a review.

This week, we are welcoming home the astronauts by playing songs written by the star man himself: David Bowie! What better way to celebrate our mission to the moon than by hearing other bands cover his varied tunes. The Thin White Duke was a rock n' roll chameleon who influenced music, film, and fashion for over 50 years. Considered one of the most influential artists of all time, he was the most underground mainstream artist, creating the blueprint for many to follow. Hope we freak you out and that ya dig! What is it we do here at InObscuria? Every show, Kevin opens the crypt to exhume and dissect from his personal collection: an artist, album, or collection of tunes from the broad spectrum of rock, punk, and metal. Robert is forced to test his endurance and provide feedback, as he has no idea what he will be subjected to every week. Our hope is that we turn you on to something that was lost on your ears, or something you've simply forgotten about, or that (in our opinion) should have been the next big thing. Songs this week include: The Get Up Kids – “Sufragette City (David Bowie)” from Eudora (2001) Infectious Grooves – “Fame (David Bowie)” from Sarsippius' Ark (1993) Small Town Titans – “Heroes (David Bowie)” from Heroes - Single (2026) Bauhaus – “Ziggy Stardust (David Bowie)” from Ziggy Stardust - Single (1982) Contraband – “Hang On To Yourself (David Bowie)” from Contraband (1991) DREAMCAR – “Moonage Daydream (David Bowie)” from Dream - EP (2024) Enuff Z'Nuff – “The Jene Genie (David Bowie)” from 10 (2000) Classless Act – “Starman (David Bowie)” from Classless Act Does Bowie - Single (2023) Saigon Kick – “Space Oddity (David Bowie)” from Water (1993) Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Religion and archaeology correspondent Rossella Tercatin joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Tercatin discusses the efforts of Queen Farah Phalavi, the third wife of the former Shah of Iran, who used her art degree and wealth from soaring oil prices before the Islamic revolution, to assemble an art collection of masterpieces for the Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art, now hidden for much of the last 47 years. She also reports on a new haggadah by Bar-Ilan University biblical scholar Prof. Joshua Berman that examines what the Torah and Haggadah tell us about Egypt and Egyptian culture, and their influence on the story of Passover and the Israelites' Exodus from Egypt. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

A Note from James:In the Blondie song “Rapture,” which was the number-one song in 1981, Debbie Harry has this famous line: “Fab Five Freddy told me everybody's fly.”So the question is—who is Fab Five Freddy?This guy is one of the central figures in the birth of hip-hop culture. Not just rap music, but the whole ecosystem: graffiti, breakdancing, fashion, DJ culture, art, film—everything that eventually turned into a massive global industry.Hip-hop today represents hundreds of billions of dollars in music, fashion, and entertainment. But in the late '70s and early '80s it was just a small creative movement happening in New York.Fab 5 Freddy helped connect all those worlds. He bridged graffiti artists, musicians, downtown art scenes, and eventually MTV.He also just wrote a book called Everybody's Fly, and it was a huge honor for me to talk with him about the origins of hip-hop and how creativity actually grows.Episode Description:Before hip-hop became a global industry, it was a loose network of DJs, graffiti artists, dancers, and musicians creating something entirely new in New York City.Fab 5 Freddy was at the center of it.In this conversation, he explains how hip-hop emerged from a mix of street culture, art scenes, punk music, and experimentation with records and sound. He discusses the origins of graffiti tagging, the rise of DJs like Grandmaster Flash, and the cultural moment when Blondie's “Rapture” helped bring hip-hop into mainstream awareness.Freddy also shares how the first hip-hop film, Wild Style, helped unify the culture's elements—music, dance, graffiti, and fashion—and introduce them to a wider audience.The conversation then turns to the modern era: AI-generated music, the attention economy of social media, and why artists today may need to slow down and develop their work before exposing it to the world.What You'll Learn:How hip-hop emerged from a mix of music, graffiti, dance, and street cultureWhy early DJs searched old records for breakbeats to create new soundsHow the film Wild Style helped define hip-hop culture for the worldWhy artists today may need to resist posting unfinished work onlineHow creativity evolves when technology disrupts the music industryTimestamped Chapters[00:02:00] The Story Behind the Title Everybody's Fly[00:03:01] A Note from James[00:04:15] Meeting Biz Markie and the Culture of Collecting Hip-Hop History[00:05:35] How Jazz, Blues, and Soul Influenced Early Hip-Hop[00:06:22] DJs Digging Through Records to Find Breakbeats[00:07:40] Grandmaster Flash and the Science of DJing[00:08:41] Why Producers Became Central to Hip-Hop Music[00:09:54] Blondie's “Rapture” and Hip-Hop's Mainstream Breakthrough[00:11:00] The Downtown Art Scene: Basquiat, Keith Haring, and Andy Warhol[00:12:24] The Origins of Graffiti and Tagging Culture[00:13:48] Graffiti as Competition and Artistic Evolution[00:15:12] Punk Rock and Hip-Hop: Parallel Cultural Revolutions[00:17:47] The Idea for the First Hip-Hop Film Wild Style[00:19:02] Bringing Breakdancing, Graffiti, and Rap Together on Film[00:21:50] Lessons Modern Artists Can Learn from Early Hip-Hop[00:22:49] Why Posting Creative Work Too Early Can Hurt It[00:24:00] Social Media, Attention, and the Speed of Culture[00:26:00] Hip-Hop's Global Influence[00:29:00] The Birth of Conscious Rap[00:31:12] Directing KRS-One's “My Philosophy” Video[00:33:00] Finding Great Hip-Hop in the Streaming Era[00:36:00] Battle Rap and Lyrical Skill[00:37:00] Artists Who Still Push the Genre Forward[00:40:11] How Rappers Make Money Today[00:43:00] What Makes an Artist Stand the Test of Time[00:47:00] Sampling, Technology, and the Evolution of Music Production[00:54:00] AI Music and the Future of Creativity[01:02:00] What “Everybody's Fly” Really MeansAdditional Resources:Fab 5 Freddyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fab_Five_FreddyRapturehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapture_(Blondie_song)Wild Stylehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_StyleGrandmaster Flashhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandmaster_FlashKRS-Onehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KRS-OneDebbie Harryhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debbie_HarrySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
