Why is Jan Van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait perceived as one of the greatest mysteries of the arts? What elements and symbolisms provoke debates about its identity and meaning?

The New Exchange with Ken Grand-Pierre
Creative Maintenance | Episode #4 | Corinne Cumming
Referencing The Matrix as a symbol for everyday life definitely feels trite at this point. However, the prevalence of that does continue to feel appropriate, especially when describing scenarios that shake us at our core. In 2025, that could be as simple as a person sharing an experience where they weren’t their best selves, a time in their life when they weren’t ok. That’s the case with what you’ll be hearing on today’s episode with Corinne Cumming, a wildly successful photographer who’s worked with the BBC, Drag Race, any band you can think of, and is also...
