This book was written by a curator of the NC Art Museum, which is located in my city. She‘s the host of a podcast of the same name but most all of this content is new. I enjoyed it as someone with an amateur interest in art history.

I was a little stuck with this book until I switched to audio. Definitely read the #audiobook!
These are fascinating stories of the art and artists that have shaped Western culture. She debates whether Van Gogh‘s death was a suicide. She talks about the revolutionary ideas of the impressionist and the woman 🤯🤯 who may have been the first abstract artist. She has interesting stories about Leonardo DaVinci, Pollock, and Warhol, too. Recommend.
About to start this on my iPad. Made me think of you @BarbaraBB 💖😘
