Who Arted is art history and art education for everyone. While most art history podcasts focus on the traditional "fine art" we see in museums around the world, Who ARTed celebrates art in all of its forms and in terms anyone can understand. Each episode tells the story of a different artist and artwork including the traditional big names like Leonardo da Vinci, Pablo Picasso and Andy Warhol along with lesser-known artists working in such diverse media as video game design, dance, the culinary arts, and more. Who Arted is written and produced by an art teacher with the goal of creating a classroom resource that makes art history fun and accessible to everyone. Whether you are cramming for your AP Art History exam, trying to learn a few facts so you can sound smart at fashionable dinner parties, or just looking to hear something with a more positive tone, we’ve got you covered with episodes every Monday and Friday.Copyright 2024 All rights reserved.

  • Lee Krasner | Little Images
    Jan 28 2026
    Lee Krasner, born Lena Krassner in 1908, was a pivotal Abstract Expressionist artist often overshadowed by her marriage to Jackson Pollock. Despite this, she forged a unique artistic path, studying at the Women's Art School of Cooper Union and the National Academy of Design before embracing modernism after the opening of MoMA in 1929. Influenced by Hans Hofmann's Cubist theories, Krasner experimented with abstraction, contributing to the WPA's Federal Art Project and the American Abstract Artists group. Her significant "Little Images" series, collages, and later large-scale works like the "Earth Green" and "Umber" series showcased her evolving style and resilience. While initial critical reception was mixed, Krasner gained recognition later in her career, culminating in retrospectives at the Whitechapel Gallery and the Whitney Museum, solidifying her legacy as a vital figure in 20th-century art.

  • Jackson Pollock | Number 11 (Blue Poles)
    Jan 27 2026
    In August of 1973, the Australian government bought a Jackson Pollock painting for $2 million. It was the highest price paid for work of an American artist and it was a huge scandal in Australia. Most people thought it was a waste and inconceivable that a Pollock would be worth as much as a Rembrandt. Pollock's work seems so simple and direct that it is easy to forget how revolutionary it was. Related Episodes: ⁠Janet Sobel⁠ This is an encore presentation.

  • Jacques-Louis David | The Oath of the Horatii
    Jan 26 2026
    In this episode, I was thrilled to be joind once again by Tim Bogatz, host of Art Ed Radio from The Art of Education University. Writing for The Art of Ed was one of my career and if you want to find my articles, here is a link: https://theartofeducation.edu/author/kylewood/ and fellow art teachers, join Tim, me and thousands of other art teachers on the AOE Community Jacques-Louis David was a foundational figure of the Neoclassical movement, marking a significant departure from the ornate and frivolous Rococo style that dominated 18th-century France. His artistic journey was characterized by a push toward visual languages inspired by the austerity and perceived virtues of Ancient Rome and Greece. David’s personal history was as turbulent as the era he lived in; raised by uncles who were successful architects after his father was killed in a duel, he faced early professional rejection, failing the Prix de Rome several times before finally succeeding in 1774. His radical political involvement during the French Revolution, including his vote to execute Louis XVI and his later role as an artistic authority under Napoleon, deeply influenced his approach to art as a medium for moral and political communication. At the center of David’s portfolio is his 1784 masterpiece, The Oath of the Horatii, a work that exemplifies the Neoclassical ideal of placing patriotism and civic duty above personal or familial ties. The painting depicts a legendary conflict between Rome and the city of Alba Longa, where three brothers from the Horatius family swear an oath to their father to fight to the death for their city. David’s composition utilizes a stark, triptych-like structure created by architectural arches that divide the scene into three distinct groups: the brothers swearing the oath, the father holding the swords, and the grieving women—some of whom are tied by marriage to the opposing side. The work is noted for its dramatic use of linear perspective, a dark, simple background, and a sharp contrast between the rigid, angular forms of the men and the soft, organic curves of the distressed women. Originally commissioned under the king, the painting was eventually adopted as a powerful piece of propaganda by revolutionaries, cementing its status as a landmark of Western art history.
