This week Sarah sits down with Bay Area artist, Rebekah Goldstein. They talk about the way we define success and failures and look back at an ArtForum article, The Loser Thing, which examines a period in the 90s where failure was at the forefront of people's minds. Sarah and Rebekah discuss whether failure, and it's artistic counterpoint, the masterpiece, are useful in terms of how we look at art. Rebekah shares how her experience becoming a mother and how that transformed her painting.
