The Necessity of Vulnerability - Nicholas Wilton

Customer Reviews
Art Is Life
Ep54 Rocked my world! I’ve never written a review on a podcast, or maybe anything for that matter. Having lived in New York on the lower Eastside and upper Eastside, my days off spent at museums and nights in village clubs taking in the magic of NY nights…listening to Jerry Saltz talk about the art world and his passion for art and life, truly lit a spark for which I have no words. He is truly iconic. Thank you Nicolas for this amazing podcast.
Life changing
Your wonderful podcast is informative on so many different levels. Your wisdom alone is inspiring. Thank you for bringing so many talented artists to this podcast, they all have a piece of the puzzle that I’ve been looking for. I listen to most of them twice, because they are loaded with so much knowledge.
Thank you!
Lori Arnold
