some of my favourite vídeo essays about art history:
whose migrant mother was this? the story of the native american woman who became the face of the 1930s depression (and got almost nothing for it)
bauhaus design is everywhere, but its roots are political how even a simple choice between what font to use can be a political act
edvard munch: what a cigarette means munch + tobacco = art? (yes we’re still on the topic of art as a political weapon)
art that was never finished how great masters sometimes even didn’t finish stuff. also! the history behind the colour aquamarine
fka twigs on mary magdalene (if you like asmr you’re gonna love this)
having a coke with frank ohara (technically not art history but this video is too good for me not to mention)
video postcard: woman at her toilette a quick dive into my favourite painting of woman impressionist berthe morisot
this documentary about georgia o´keeffe (that ive seen about 10 times)
david hockney on vincent van gogh on love of nature, beauty, attention, and the art of looking (essentially a mary oliver poem in interview format!!!!)

TODAYS RECORD: NO. 1 IN HEAVEN BY SPARKS (1979)
No. 1 in Heaven is the eighth studio album by American pop rock band Sparks. Known for their theatrical pop records that span genres, Sparks looked towards disco and electronica for their next record after years of indulging in all kinds of traditional rock music.
The album was produced by Italian producer Giorgio Moroder who caught Sparks attention when he produced Donna Summer's "I Feel Love." The sound of No. 1 in Heaven would become a staple of Moroder's future production; Layered sequencers and synthesizers, underpinned with layered drums, overdubbed vocals, and backing vocals.
