Episode 116: The Cemetery Curator: Papal Medals, Postmodernism, and the "Grand Tour" with James Fishburne of the Forest Lawn Museum


Listen Later

Seventy years ago Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, CA started a museum. They had been collecting art, both funerary and otherwise and their collection had grown to such an extent it needed a home. That museum is still a huge part of Forest Lawn's landscape today.  I kick of Artistic April with James Fishburne, the curator of the Forest Lawn Museum and discuss the collection, art history, the " memorial impulse" and what the future of art looks like.
