In this podcast we talked about the sculpture “THE GYMNASTS” (1969) by Joe Brown that is located in Princeton, New Jersey at Temple University. In the podcast we touched upon the aesthetic issues of depicting nudes as well as the problem of vandalism in urban environments. We also shared our opinions on what artistic choices we would’ve made.

This podcast is to inform anyone that is interested in learning about the Ghent altarpiece and its story. It consists of a short history and analysis of the Ghent altarpiece along with a discussion about religious objects being displayed as art. I would recommend listening to this as it provides an outsider prospective on the art piece as well as how others may feel about the artwork and other religious pieces on display. The title "What A Ghent Altarpiece" is supposed to be a pun for What A Great Altarpiece.

In today’s episode of Exploring Art Podcast we will be having

Kasey  and Giselle  as guests. We will go over many topics like the Tate gallery, the art piece is known as a Pile of Bricks, and

minimalism. We will also be discussing a case study about whether or not this art piece can be considered art and why.

In this podcast, we talked about how art is based on perspective and how artist wants their work to be perceived. For example, the artist wanted his bricks to be perceived as art, and the bricklayer assistant didn't intend for his bricks to be perceived as art. Lastly, art is made to represent something, and although the artist may have made the brick pile to represent something from his own perspective, the bricklayer assistant didn't mean to represent anything since it's his job.

In today's podcast, we discussed Marcel Duchamp's readymade sculpture, "Fountain". We formed our own opinions on whether or not it should have been rejected from the 1917 exhibition of the Society of Independent Artists in NYC. We analyzed all aspects of this work as a whole and discussed Duchamp's desired outcome by submitting this sculpture to the exhibition.

In this episode, we discuss the case of Maureen Gledhill, a woman who bought an art piece thinking a well-known artist made it, only to find out that the painting was created by accident thanks to a duck with some paint on its flippers. After learning the truth, Gledhill decided to take the picture off her wall. During the podcast, Elizabete, Michael, and Anthony discuss why Gledhill might have made this decision and take a deeper look into what makes something art.

Have you ever heard of someone taking a urinal and using it as a piece of art? Well, it happened. In 1917 Marcel Duchamp took a urinal, put it on display at a 90-degree angle at the 1917 exhibition of the Society of Independent Artists in NYC, and renamed it The Fountain. Now, as you can imagine, this did cause a bit of controversy in the art world. People were having discussions about whether they thought The Fountain was considered art. What is considered art? If the meaning of an art piece is left up to the eye of the beholder, can you say that it is not art? Well, in this episode, we will discuss who Marcel Duchamp is, his work, and our opinions about whether we consider it art.
