Pink w/ Stuart Semple - Art Slice Museum Laboratories Division of Color Theory & Color Studies

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
