Description

As a podcast listener, a few topics I enjoy are obviously art and history, but I also like true crime and really anything with a compelling story. The Art of Crime hosted by Gavin Whitehead is an incredible podcast that brings all of that together. Longtime listeners have no doubt noticed my love of modernism and my fascination with how World War 2 reshaped the art world. Today I wanted to share an episode of The Art of Crime all about Otto Dix and the attempted assassination of Hitler. I don’t want to spoil anything, but despite knowing how it all would end, I found myself on the edge of my seat as Gavin described the would-be assassin carefully chipping away at brick and mortar in the stone column, timing his hammer strikes to coincide with a passing train so as not to draw any unwanted attention. That theatrical experience shows as every episode of The Art of Crime has a compelling story.

Who Arted is art history and art education for everyone. While most art history podcasts focus on the traditional "fine art" we see in museums around the world, Who ARTed celebrates art in all of its forms and in terms anyone can understand. Each episode tells the story of a different artist and artwork including the traditional big names like Leonardo da Vinci, Pablo Picasso and Andy Warhol along with lesser-known artists working in such diverse media as video game design, dance, the culinary arts, and more. Who Arted is written and produced by an art teacher with the goal of creating a classroom resource that makes art history fun and accessible to everyone. Whether you are cramming for your AP Art History exam, trying to learn a few facts so you can sound smart at fashionable dinner parties, or just looking to hear something with a more positive tone, we’ve got you covered with episodes every Monday and Friday.
