I'm joined this week by my dear friend and Art History major, Liv Deresti-Robinson, who's here to talk with me all about the myth of the male genius within the artistic industry; how this myth preserves rape culture, sustains hierarchy, and consistently excuses toxicity. from talking about god complexes, to the ever-debated question of whether or not we can (or should!) separate the art from the artist, this episode's all about unpacking the hierarchical nature of the artistic industry in which the "male genius" is worshipped, celebrated, and immortalized.
