How to Art aims to demystify the artworld and help us all have a more joyful relationship with art.
She and Zuckerman discuss art anxiety, our shared belief that “Art is for everybody,,” being helpful, cultivating taste, stress relieving impact of making art, why art is the ultimate art form, good and bad art, prioritizing the visitor, already knowing everything that you need to know, when things click, busting art out of where it is usually seen, making television about art, emphasizing the human connection, what makes artists interesting people, how there is no really conventional art career, having a great time, purposeful inclusivity, allowing art to be good for us, being honest, and being really excited to talk about art!
