Vitamin Ais for art!
Art Musings is such a nice bit of accessible criticism. Tracey does an exceptional job of modeling her approach to a sometimes elusive or daunting topic. And she somehow fits a healthy dose of content into such a tiny capsule of cultural nutrition.
Short and sweet; informative, and not the obvious info!
I love the short form of this podcast. A quick and easy art bite for my subway commute and I love how you touch on the not-so-obvious topics about these artists so far! Super excited that this exists. Such a great idea.
