Art Slice - A Palatable Serving of Art History

Jack Shoulder and Mark Small of Museum Bums fame take us on a curvy tour of Art Historical Gluteal Clefts!

If you’d rather watch - you can do so here: https://youtu.be/1mCpKG4nuoU

Topics include counting museum rumps, apotropaic blessings from Goddesses heinies, Kappa Yokai looking for soul spheres in your rear…

We’re all still stumped about what was up with Hieronymus Bosch’s… erhm… interest in butts.  

And of course, the coded queerness hiding just between the cheeks of artists like Michelangelo and Henry Scott Tuke. 

For your daily dose of bum - follow @museumbums on social, and while you’re at it pick up Museum Bums: A Cheeky Look at Butts in Art from (preferably) your local bookstore.

The featured song was Ｓ ｔ ｏ ｃ ｋ Ｍ ｕ ｓ ｉ ｃ from Anonymous420's album ＳＴＡＲＴＵＰ ＮＡＴＩＯＮ

For its SEVENTH installment, the Art Slice Museum Laboratories Division of Color Theory and Color Studies brings you the extra-spectral, enigmatic (and sometimes controversial) PURPLE - and we have artist, illustrator, animator and (duncle) Caldwell Tanner of Not Another DnD Podcast (NaddPod), Drawfee, Big City Greens - on deck to help sort it out.

Is it actually violet? Or have color manufacturers fudged the visuals? Or is purple hidden in plain sight, filling in the voids of our imaginations and our physical world?

We get into all of this - discussing purple’s history - its ancient lineage beginning often laborious flora origins, its unwavering sense of mystery and wonder yet it’s reincarnation into pop cultural characters - as well as it's characteristics, and your color associations!

Key moments include: Grimace (original), Qin Shi Huang, world wide mollusk milking, purple kimonos, Klasky Csupo, Cleopatra, Grimace (current day), colorful Giallo horror flicks, Harry Clarke, Lois Dodd, and what kind of pants robots could wear...

We are so excited to share a new series from our Canadian podcast friends Once Upon a Time in Hollywood North

A series about a group of artists known as the Professional Native Indian Artists Incorporation (PNIAI) or as they were dubbed by the press: the Indigenous Group of Seven.

This was significant because the most famous Euro-Canadian painters then were known as the Group of Seven which put respect on their name - especially for Indigenous artists who were still thought of as less than their white counterparts as well as their work being seen more as anthropology than art…

The PNIAI artists include:

Daphne Odjig

Alex Janvier

Jackson Beardy

Eddy Cobiness

Norval Morrisseau

Carl Ray

Joseph Sanchez

Listen to the first episode here, then go and subscribe to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood North to finish the series over the coming weeks.

Once the series has wrapped up we will have a bonus episode covering some of our favorite works from the series.

For its SIXTH installment, the Art Slice Museum Laboratories Division of Color Theory and Color Studies brings you our most controversial color so far. . . PINK (!!!) 

Is this color just a light red? Or is the extra-spectral tone of our… life… energy…?

We dig through the history, characteristics, and your color associations with, artist, curator, activist - and creator of the Pinkest Pink - Stuart Semple @stuartsemple 

And try - TRY - to make some sense of the sorted history of Pink, from its humble algae origins to its 20th century capitalist feminine turn.

We are back (!) picking up where we left off with Francisco de Goya in PART ONE as we finally discuss Los Caprichos, but not before diving into the revelatory hidden imagery in La familia de Carlos IV, and Goya's infamous witch series: Witches' Flight, The Spell, Witches' Sabbath, The Witches' Kitchen, and The Bewitched Man / Devil's Lamp.

We also address the myth that Goya went ‘crazy’ after a certain point in his life. Turns out, the answer was ‘no’ but also not that simple.

Full video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRxVZRzDicI

We will be following up our Goya episodes with a wrap up ‘sode on our Patreon very soon where we will talk about all the things, thoughts, feelings that went behind making this trio of Goya/Spanish culture related episodes: http://www.patreon.com/artslicepod
