You’ve heard of Jackson Pollock but you may have never heard of Lee Krasner. Krasner was an artist, Pollock’s wife, and the woman who made him famous. She also changed everything about the landscape of modern art. This is a story about love, power, alcoholism and an ill-timed death. Hosted by curator, author, and broadcaster Katy Hessel, this 6-episode series, offers an inside look into two of the greatest artists of the 20th century, and how their vision impacts ours. And listen back to season one, where host Helen Molesworth revisits the artist Ana Mendieta’s death and the trial that followed– interrogating both the silence and the protest that have accompanied her story ever since. Death of an Artist Season 1 is a co-production between Pushkin Industries, Somethin’ Else, and Sony Music Entertainment. Death of an Artist Season 2 is a co-production between Pushkin Industries and Samizdat Audio.

Excellent storytelling

Brings her life and times and places alive. I’m captivated. A gem to share 💎
Overly dramatized
Sep 12
A good story but NOT done well: repetitive between episodes; overly dramatized; jumps around; too many ads!!
The ads ruin it

The ads make this wonderful story very hard to listen to.
Cmon

Interesting topic, learned things I didn’t know before but feels hypocritical at times. I understand the points the host is trying to make but you can find smarter arguments. Too much publicity, 50:50. Also on season 1 episode 6 two smart women who live or work in NYC don’t know how doorman buildings work? You just ring a bell?!?? And they are offended by how tall a building in Manhattan is?! Cmon now, don’t insult your listeners intelligence.
