    Ep. 157: Artist Jeff Wall

    Ep. 150: Author Michael Lobel “Van Gogh and the End of Nature”

    A conversation with author Michael Lobel to discuss his new book, “Van Gogh and the End of Nature”. Lobel offers a groundbreaking reassessment of Vincent van Gogh, revealing how the artist's work is deeply intertwined with the industrial age and its environmental impacts.
