    Inside (2023): The Art of Willem Dafoe

    Heyyyy, long time no see! Sorry for the unexpected absence. We decided to do this stupid thing where we got really busy and then moved across the country. But now we’re back with a new episode! Our entertainment correspondent Chris Scott (of Layers and Lairs) joins us to take a look at the 2023 art heist film “Inside”, starring Willem Dafoe, and only Willem Dafoe. coldcrit.art patreon.com/coldcrit

    Trump's Attacks on the NEA | The Art of Killing the Arts

    Ah crap, Donald Trump is back in office and things aren't looking so great for the arts in the good ol' USA—that is, unless you're a figurative sculpture artist or your primary mode of inquiry is about the Declaration of Independence. In that case, this could be a golden age for your career and you should definitely come be a guest on the show! This week we're focusing on the gutting of the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the National Endowment for Humanities (NEH), and how it might affect everything from your local children's museum to the fate of A Prairie Home Companion (which we’re not that torn up about, tbh). There’s no gallery guide for this episode, but be sure to check out the beautiful rendering of the National Garden of American Heroes on the Patreon!

    Deep Dive: The Art of the Super Bowl Ad

    Okay, tell me if you've heard this one before. Two Chrises walk into an art gallery. One of them eats a banana right off the wall. The other says, "That's a $6.2 million banana!" Oh you have? Well apparently not everyone has, since it's the punchline of Meta Ray-Ban's second Super Bowl commercial of 2025. Don't worry, we move on quickly from there. Life's too short to discuss that dumb banana art for another second on this podcast. Instead, in this episode we talk about work lurking in the background by Damien Hirst, who holds records for both highest artist net worth and highest artistic body count. We also explore real-life instances of people destroying art, including the viral Ecce Homo "restoration" to a hapless student requiring 22 firefighters to surgically extract him from a vaginal cavern of a sculpture at a German university.

    Meta | Ray-Ban: The Art of The Super Bowl Ad

    Super Bowl? More like superbly weird ad! Meta Ray-Ban's two-part commercial for 2025’s big game follows the Chrises (Hemsworth & Pratt) as they fumble through Kris’s (Jenner) private gallery. The AI glasses promise to give the wearer an art history education, but the gallery scene turns out to be little more than a backdrop for pratfalls (Pratt falls? Huh? Is that anything?) and an opportunity for three people with the same name to take selfies. That’s why we’re picking up where Silicon Valley could never. We take a look at Urs Fischer's waxy/eggy/gooey meditations on impermanence and Carmen Herrera's iconic hard-edge paintings. Join us for the art history lesson the glasses couldn't provide, stay for our dissection of Silicon Valley's expensive display of cultural illiteracy.

    Luigi Mangione Pt. 2 : The Art of The Perp Walk

    Final reminder! We’re changing our name! We will be Cold Crit starting with our next episode. You begged for it, and now here it is! We’ve got Luigi Mangione part two! When Mangione got the perp walk treatment of Hannibal Lecter, we asked ourselves, “What do neo-classical paintings of the French Revolution, photos of arrests at BLM protests, and Abu Ghraib all have in common?” And then we decided to answer our own question with this episode! This week we’re looking at how arrest imagery shapes public narratives, especially once the internet gets involved.
