Artsy Fartsy

Whew! Season 2 is a wrap- once you're done listening that is! 

Jay and Tay wrap up Season 2 with some badass women who defied cultural norms, made HUGE work, and changed the world. Join us as Taylor introduces the "white marmorean flock," and yes we will define this for you- and ourselves... This episode will cover artowork that ranges from Neoclassical style and subjects of pre-Civil War public sculpture to the greater realism of the late 19th century and the women who took on stone. 

We can't wait to bring you Season 3! See you in a few!

Join Jaymee and Taylor on the re-release of the inaugural episode of the Artsy Fartsy podcast! On this episode, Jaymee will dig into the life of Lee Krasner. Lee is an abstract expressionist artist who contributed significantly to the changes in art throughout the 40's and into the 60's. This episode takes most of it's information from the book 9th Street Women. The second half of Lee Krasner's epic career and life is covered in episode 3! You can expect art, tragedy and whole lot of bad ass woman-ing as this episode covers 1950-1980(ish).
