Starting my day learning about some of my favorite artist like Rachel Whiteread and Louise Bourgeois. I would love to hear you cover Mona Hatoum, haven’t found many interviews of hers and would love to hear more about her.
I absolutely love these conversations with women artists, so inspiring and nourishing, thank you so much Katy!
Thank you both so much for your respectful intelligence
Loved the episode on Dorothea Tanning and surrealism. It was informative and engaging. I’m going to the Prado today and plan to look for the Dorothea Tanning piece. I also didn’t know about her relationship with Max Ernst and I love his work. Thank you!
