Episode 5: Santa Claus's Look!

Dr Great Art! (Sometimes even with a "?"), Art History, Visual Metaphor, and a dash of politics. Through his podcasts and performance-lecture installations, artist and art historian Dr Mark Staff Brandl takes viewers inside visual art, art history, and visual metaphor theory. Entertainingly, yet educationally and aesthetically he presents and discusses stimulating tidbits of knowledge. Brandl stands for an understanding of art in which art historical knowledge and aesthetic pleasure merge into a new artistic experience.
