This week's episode is about photography. While numerous scientists were conducting experiments with light sensitive materials as early as the 18th century, it was Daguerre in the middle of the 19th century who really advanced the medium. He wasn't the first photographer, but he innovated coming up with a practical method and sharing it with the world so others could build off his process and improve it further. Daguerre was also among the first to recognize photography as an art form and not just a science.
In the early days, photographs would require long exposure times. As a result moving subjects couldn't be caught on film, but in 1838, Daguerre pointed his camera to the street outside his window. A man was having his boots polished and just happened to stand still long enough so that he and the person polishing his boots would become the first people captured in a photo.
This week my guest was Matt Stoeffel from Kodak. He shared tremendous insights into how black and white as well as color film worked, and how our digital cameras process images.

Andy Warhol famously said that he wanted to be like a machine producing artworks in his factory studio. The irony is of course he played with colors and exposures, leaning in to the imperfections of an over exposed image or printing without perfectly aligning his screens. He put a human touch into the mechanical process elevating pop culture subjects to the realm of fine art.
In this episode, I spoke with Melissa Sorenson from Speedball Art Materials to learn how screen printing works. She shared some insights into how the materials are produced and how we can make the most of them in our studios.

Markers were one of my favorite media growing up. I loved the immediacy of being able to draw with markers and create bright, bold colors. When I got a little older, I became frustrated with the limitations as the colors always seemed flat. Now as an adult I have found that markers are surprisingly versatile.
In this episode, I talked about the artist, Tom Deslongchamp and his incredible marker drawings. You can see a video of him explaining and demonstrating his technique on his website https://www.tomdeslongchamp.com/about
Tom also recently came out with a book of his drawings. https://www.tomdeslongchamp.com/shop/nowheretonowbook

For this week's episode, we are focusing on paints. Painting is one of the oldest artforms, and as I have said many times before, art is the most important development in human history as it is our capacity to imagine a better tomorrow and communicate that vision with others. We have found evidence of art such as paintings on cave walls that are almost as old as humanity itself.
In this episode, I shared a little bit about the paintings on the walls of the caves in Lascaux then I spoke with Rita Gibson from Prang to learn about how our modern paints are made. She also some insights to help us make better use of our paints.

In this episode, I explored the most commonly used and probably least thought about art material, the pencil. Have you ever wondered why we call the core of a pencil lead even though it is graphite? Have you ever wondered how they get that graphite rod into the middle of a pencil, or what those letters and numbers on the pencil mean? I talked to Becky Trudeau from Dixon Ticonderoga to learn all about it.

The Baroque era came after the Renaissance, while both eras often focused on biblical and historical subjects and both art forms prized highly polished, naturalistic craftsmanship, the renaissance was about intellectual pursuits, it was an era of artists developing the mind but the Baroque was all about the heart. It was emotional, dramatic and active. While Renaissance artists would create blanced, ordered and visually satisfying compositions, the Baroque embraced asymmetrical balance to create more active and dramatic scenes.

Matisse and Derain showed their work at the Salon de Automne in 1905, and at that salon, a critic Louis Vauxcelles was walking around looking at all the works when he saw a renaissance sculpture surrounded by the modern works of Matisse, Derain and their friends. Vaucelles was heard to remark “Donatello au milieu de fauves” meaning “Donatello among the wild beasts”
Like the Impressionists, the fauvists took the term a critic used to insult their work and transformed it’s meaning. They were considered to be wild because of their bold use of color. The fauvist style is a sort of extension of the post-impressionist movement further flattening the images, making things more abstract with bolder colors and more expressive, painterly styling.

When most people hear of the Abstract Expressionist movement, the first thought is of Jackson Pollock and his drip paintings. While he was probably the biggest name in the movement, the style was extremely varied and consisted of more than just drips and splatters. Willem de Kooning made figurative works, Rothko and Frankenthaler created color fields, but what tied all of these works together was an emphasis on the expressive qualities of art. The abstract expressionist or ab ex movement was all about the artist making their feelings visible to the outside world. It was spontaneous and highly idiosyncratic with all different artists finding their unique mark making for personal self expression.

Art is as old as humanity. I have often said that art is what defines us as human. It is why and how we got out of the trees. The ability to express ourselves creatively is what allows humans to come together, to understand each other, to envision a better future. While prehistoric art predates recorded history and therefore we have no artist’s statements giving us certainty into the intentions behind these works, we do see clues in the designs, the materials used by the aritsts, and the placement of the pieces.
My 5 favorite prehistoric pieces (links to episodes of Who ARTed when applicable):
The world's oldest artwork - handprint fossils
The Apollo 11 Stones
The Running Horned Woman
Stonehenge
The Lascaux Cave Paintings

In 1907, Pablo Picasso and George Braque developed art from a new perspective. They began creating works that seemed fragmented and at times almost unrecognizable. The idea was to show the subject from multiple perspectives all in one composition.

Art Nouveau was a style that rose to prominence in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. I would say the heyday for art nouveau was from around 1890 to 1910, but of course, there is not a specific start and end date for any art movement. People can’t even agree on when or where the term first appeared. Some say it was in an art magazine in Belgium in the 1880s, while others say the origin of the name came about in Paris when the collector Sigfried Bing named his gallery, La Maison de’l Art Nouveau which means, the house of the new art. Art Nouveau was a deliberate attempt to create a new art style. Illustrators, jewelers, architects and interior designers wanted something fresh that would stand apart from the historic pieces that had been dominant in the European art world for most of the previous century. I would say another big factor was the industrial revolution. As hard-edged steel and glass forms sprung up, the art nouveau movement gave people soft, organic flowing lines. It was a breath of fresh air, creating a new style by looking at the oldest inspiration of all nature as a counterbalancing force to modern industrial design.
Here are links to episodes of Who ARTed where you can learn more about a few of the artists referenced:
Alfonse Mucha
Louis Sullivan
Henri de Toulouse Lautrec

In two-dimensional art, the ancient Egyptians practiced an approach referred to as frontalism. Each feature was shown from the ideal, most recognizable view. The head was shown in profile while the torso was facing forward. The feet would then be shown from the side as that was a more easily recognizable shape for a foot. The result was a mix of perspectives on the figure making it appear contorted but it was the ideal symbol rendering each part in ways that would be easily identified.
Another distortion we see in ancient Egyptian artifacts was hierarchical scale. Simply put, the more important a figure was, the bigger it would be in the composition. Conversely, a less important figure would be smaller. So gods and pharaohs would be shown as noticeably larger than the average Egyptian.
