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.

  • TLDR Tarsila do Amaral
    Sep 22 2025
    Explore the life and work of Tarsila do Amaral, a foundational artist of Brazilian modernism and one of the most celebrated figures in Latin American art history. Born in 1886, Tarsila brought the avant-garde lessons of European Cubism back to her native Brazil, fusing them with local colors and themes to forge a completely new artistic identity for her country. This overview delves into her pivotal role in the Grupo dos Cinco (Group of Five) and the development of the Antropofagia (Cultural Cannibalism) movement, which proposed symbolically "devouring" foreign influences to create a uniquely Brazilian culture. Discover the story behind her iconic 1928 masterpiece, Abaporu, a painting that began as a private birthday gift for her husband and ended up launching a cultural revolution. The summary also highlights Tarsila's signature "caipira" color palette, inspired by the rustic landscapes of Brazil, her status as a fashion icon in 1920s Paris, and her out-of-this-world legacy as the namesake for a crater on the planet Mercury. Tarsila do Amaral's work represents a powerful declaration of cultural independence and remains a vibrant touchstone for artists today.

  • TLDR Illuminated Manuscripts
    Sep 19 2025
    Illuminated manuscripts are the stunning, handcrafted books of the medieval world, created through a meticulous process in monastery workshops known as scriptoria. Scribes would copy text onto processed animal skin, or vellum, while artists known as illuminators added intricate illustrations and shimmering gold leaf. The term 'illuminated' comes from this dazzling use of gold and silver, which made the pages glitter like sacred objects. While gold provided the glimmer, the most precious material was often the brilliant blue pigment ultramarine, ground from lapis lazuli imported from Afghanistan. In addition to the sacred text, the margins of these books often contained whimsical and bizarre doodles, known as marginalia, featuring everything from knights battling snails to musical monkeys. A pinnacle of this art form is the Book of Kells, a masterpiece of Insular art created by Celtic monks around 800 CE. It is celebrated for its dense, complex Celtic knotwork and vibrant illustrations, most famously on its renowned Chi-Rho page (Folio 34r), a dizzying and meditative work of art that transforms the name of Christ into a sacred image filled with hidden figures and profound symbolism.
