Artsy FartsySeason 2 Episode 4: Women Artists of the Western European RenaissanceEpisode Summary:
Last week we learned about Lavinia Fontana and this week we step back for a bird's eye look at the steep societal ladder she climbed. Women in Western Europe's Renaissance faced monumental systemic barriers to practicing art but some were able to push through. Even after triumphing over obstacles during their lives, today's art history leaves most of their work attributed to men or disintegrating in attics. Learn about some of these women as well as a non-profit trying to reinsert them in the historical narrative as we discover why it's so difficult for people in 2021...2021-03-091h 26Artsy FartsySeason 2 Episode 3: Lavinia FontanaOur longest episode to date, but we promise it is filled with the GOOD stuff!

Artsy FartsySeason 2 Episode 2: Women Abstract Expressionists of San FranciscoEpisode Summary:
Last week we learned about Bernice Bing and this week we zoom out for a look at a social space she frequented. The circle of women abstract expressionists living and working in San Francisco experienced a dearth of national attention due to their great physical distance from New York. Also a direct result of that physical and financial distance, their creative practices were allowed much greater creative freedom.

This episode isn’t Pod Save America (we do love those guys), but we do talk about politics. We don’t think it’s a trigger warning, but if you’re tired of it all stick around for some sweet art history. Tay covers the Black Arts Aesthetic Movement, and the bad ass women who lead the way after WWII. Jay might freak out a little when she realizes Faith Ringgold and Betye Saar are involved. We hope you’ll freak out too (in the best way possible)!
