Art Slice - A Palatable Serving of Art History

Watch the video version here: https://youtu.be/gK2OcbuE7OoWhen the dazzling German actress Maria Lani arrived in Paris in the late 1920s, her presence set the art world abuzz. She quickly recruited over fifty artists—including Pierre Bonnard, Jean Cocteau, Marc Chagall, André Derain, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso (he said no), Man Ray, Georges-Henri Rouault, Fernand Léger, and Suzanne Valadon—to depict her in paintings, photographs, and sculptures for an upcoming film.There was just one problem: "Maria Lani" was a construct. She wasn’t a famous actress—she wasn’t even "Maria Lani." So what did she plan to do with all these artworks?Sign up for our algorithm free newsletter ➫ https://www.artslicepod.com/When Maria Lani disappeared along with the pieces, rumors spread that she had stolen the works and sold them to unsuspecting collectors in the United States. Was this the art heist of the century? Or was something else going on?We sit down with Author and Illustrator - Jonathan Lackman and Zachary J. Pinson - to uncover the truth—and discuss The Woman with Fifty Faces, a stunning new graphic novel from Fantagraphics that explores the enigmatic life of this maligned figure.Support the show!Patreon ➫ http://patreon.com/artslicepodMerch ➫ https://artslicepod-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/allMore Merch ➫ https://www.artslicepod.com/For more on Maria Lani ➫ https://marialani.com/https://jonlackman.com/To see more of Zachary's work ➫ https://www.instagram.com/zachary_j_pinson/Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

But when Mary, decades into her own art career, first received the invitation . . .well, here’s what she had to say:“When the committee offered it to me to do, at first I was horrified, but gradually I began to think it would be great fun to do something I had never done before and as the bare idea of such a thing put (Cassatt's best frenemy) Degas into a rage and he did not spare every criticism he could think of, I got my spirit up and said I would not give up the idea for anything.”So . . . maybe a little spite inspired this mural? Spite and...a surprising reimagining of the story of Eve.  Unfortunately, this mural has been lost to the sands of time...and we're (maybe, foolishly) diving in with the only surviving grainy black and white photos to guide us.Special thanks to Klaire Lockheart! https://www.instagram.com/klairelockheart==============================✅ NEW: Mary Cassatt "Eve Freed Us" teehttps://artslicepod-shop.fourthwall.com/products/mary-cassatt-eve-freed-us-tee==============================✅ Join our algorithm-free newsletter for updates! ➩ ➪ ➩ ➪ https://artslicepod.substack.com/==============================✅ MUSIC FROM THIS EPISODE:Holinzacc0 - "Yesterday"https://holiznacc0.bandcamp.com/album/lofi-and-chillBlear Moon - "Fortitude"https://blearmoon.bandcamp.com/album/love-in-ruinsHolinzacc0 - "First Snow"https://holiznacc0.bandcamp.com/album/winter-lo-fi-2==============================✅ Help push our show past the algorithmic fog: ➫ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7tzKvEqALu60qo0vaf9sXF➫ Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/47Gsq9s➫ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/artslicepod/➫ TikTok : https://www.tiktok.com/@artslicepod✅ Support the show: ➫ Support us: https://www.patreon.com/artslicepod➫ Website: https://www.artslicepod.com/Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

When she began her artistic career, she started with painting.Her paintings explore deep emotions and personal experiences. The planes of color and vague interiors really mind us of Richard Diebenkorn and Florine Stettheimer.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Allan.Poe. The work in question is that of “King Pest” from 1919, a story about two drunken sailors bumbling about a 19th century plague-stricken London.Sounds chill but the combo of grim and gory Poe plus Harry’s scary talent of visualizing such tales will give you the heebie-jeebies (not all speaking from experience 👀).Click PLAY if you dare and get ready to be HARRY-FIED!Topics include E-Girl socks, El Chavo del Ocho, island getaways, pampooties, Derry Girls, Guinness, TB vaccines and much, much more!Song: "Yesterday" by Holiznacc0 https://holiznacc0.bandcamp.com/track/yesterdayAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

To watch ➬ mosey on over here ➬ : https://youtu.be/3H3ittr_RNYWe present a very special bonus interview with Emily A. Beeny, Chief Curator at the Legion of Honor in San Francisco about the Mary Cassatt At Work exhibition.Since her day, Mary Cassatt (1844-1926) has been known for her paintings of bébés and upper class women but there’s another layer - a radical one - that has been overlooked until now.Join us as we discuss how this new exhibition explores the idea of labor surrounding Cassatt’s studio practice as well as her radical subject matter: the bébés being cared for by, more often than not, nannies, nurse-maids, governesses etc. Our conversation with Emily revolves around Cassatt's “A Goodnight Hug” a pastel from 1880.Topics include the artist as laborer, shedding light on domestic work, her and Cassatt’s involvement in women’s suffrage in the US.The exhibition closes January 26th, 2025 - don’t miss it!!You can learn more about the exhibition here:https://www.famsf.org/exhibitions/mary-cassattMUSIC: HoliznaCC0 - “First Snow” https://holiznacc0.bandcamp.com/ Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Over the past 100ish years, her image has transcended borders, becoming synonymous with sugar skulls, Frida Kahlo, the Virgin of Guadalupe and even Santa Muerte.From her first incarnation by Mexican printmaker Jose Guadalupe Posada in 1910 as “Calavera Garbancera” (Chick-Pea Calavera) print, all the way back to early depictions of (and actual) skulls found in Aztec and Mayan tzompantli; Her rediscovery and re-imagining by the Mexican Muralists in the early 20th century, even making a cameo in the larger than life mural by Diego Rivera in 1947 “Sueño de una tarde dominical en la Alameda Central” or “A Dream of a Sunday Afternoon in Alameda Park” and finally, the continuing rise of La Catrina’s visage in the present day.We also discuss Europe’s Memento Mori moment in Hans Holbein the Younger’s “The Ambassadors” from 1533 as well as Francisco Goya’s Los Caprichos influence on Posada’s “Calavera de los Patinadores” or “Street-cleaning Calavera” from c.1900 and “Calavera Oaxaqueña” or “The Oaxacan Calavera” c.1910.Topics include renegade saints, is Tim McCraw dead?, hybrid deities, Franceyness, psychedelic skulls, really just lots and lots and lots of skulls . . .Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
