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.

  • Emily Kame Kngwarreye | Earth's Creation
    Jan 22 2026
    Emily Kame Kngwarreye was born around 1910, a time when the Aboriginal people were not considered full citizens in their own country. Earth’s Creation is an absolutely massive painting about 9 feet tall and 20 feet wide. She painted it in 1994 when she was around 84 years old. Most biographies will say that she only painted for the last 8 years of her life, but really, she was only painting for Western audiences for that period. She spent her life learning, practicing, and creating in line with the Aboriginal customs. Earth’s Creation is an absolutely massive piece she created in 1994. Kngwarreye was about 84 years old when she painted it. It shows an evolution in her style from the more earth toned traditional pieces she painted as she first began to work on canvas. In this piece we see rich blues, yellows, and greens referencing the lush “green times” that follow periods of heavy rain. She was moving beyond the clay and ochre pigments but still creating work deeply rooted in her connection to the land and nature. This painting is about 9 feet tall and 20 feet wide and when it went up for auction in 2007, it sold for an equally large price of just over $1 million. It set a record for the highest price of a work by an aboriginal artist and the highest price for an Australian female painter. A decade later it sold for over $2 million once again setting the record for the highest price by an Australian female painter. This is an encore presentation. Every January/February, I release daily episodes to refresh everyone's memory on the 64 artists and artworks that will be included in my Arts Madness Tournament held in March. While most of these daily episodes will be reruns, I will continue publishing new episodes on Mondays.

  • Wayne Thiebaud | Pie a la Mode
    Jan 21 2026
    Wayne Thiebaud is known for his paintings of everyday objects. Born in 1920, Thiebaud's early experiences as a sign painter and an apprentice animator at Walt Disney Studios shaped his understanding of visual communication and iconic forms. Though often associated with the Pop Art movement of the 1960s, Thiebaud’s approach was distinct. While artists like ⁠Andy Warhol⁠ embraced mechanical reproduction, Thiebaud celebrated the painter's touch, using thick impasto, brilliant colors, and strong shadows to bring his subjects to life. His signature works feature commonplace items, particularly diner foods like pies, cakes, and gumballs, transforming them into objects of formal study and cultural nostalgia. Thiebaud's career gained national recognition following his inclusion in the landmark 1962 exhibition, "New Painting of Common Objects," at the Pasadena Art Museum. A deep dive into one of his early masterpieces, Pie a la Mode (1961), reveals the key elements of his style: the luscious, tactile quality of the paint, the signature halos of color outlining the object, and the ability to find artistic complexity in the simple pleasures of American life. Beyond his famous still lifes, Thiebaud also applied his unique vision to compelling landscapes of San Francisco and detailed figure paintings, solidifying his legacy as one of America's most beloved painters and a dedicated long-time professor at the University of California, Davis.

  • The Ardabil Carpet
    Jan 20 2026
    The Ardabil Carpet, a masterpiece of 16th-century Persian weaving, represents a pinnacle of Safavid art. Though associated with Ardabil, scholars suggest it may have been woven in Kashan, a prominent center for carpet production during that era. Commissioned during the reign of Shah Tahmasp I (1501-1736 CE) for the Shrine of Shaykh Safi al-Din Ardabili, this monumental wool pile carpet on a silk foundation measures an impressive 34 feet 6 inches by 17 feet 5 inches and boasts over 25 million knots. The carpet's intricate design features a central medallion surrounded by elaborate floral motifs, scrolling vines, and arabesques, reminiscent of a lush garden, a common theme in Islamic art. Notably, two asymmetrical mosque lamps hang from the central medallion, symbolizing divine knowledge and adding to the carpet's sacred context. Inscriptions include a couplet from the poet Hafiz, emphasizing devotion and humility, fitting for a piece created for a revered shrine. Dated 946 AH (1539-1540 CE), the Ardabil Carpet's precise dating is a rare and valuable historical marker. Its acquisition by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London in 1893 significantly elevated the recognition of Islamic art in Western collections, and its enduring influence continues to inspire textile art and design globally.
