5. Lion Fish in the Grotto


Listen Later

Lion Fish in the Grotto is a pointillist gouache painting on paper by artist Nancy Graves (1939-1995) composed of red, orange, and blue dots that form the striped bodies, spiky fins, and venomous rays of five lion fish on a stark white background. In this episode we explore pointillism, the life and work of Nancy Graves, and her connection to Berkshire Museum.


Theme music by Phil Vivori.
