The Art Attack is on vacation this week, but we will be back with new episodes featuring John LaFarge and Hiroshi Sugimoto in 2012. Until then, have a very happy and safe New Year!!
About
Ever wander into an art museum and think, "I must be missing something here?" Ever wish you could stand in front of a work of art and actually understand what you're seeing, instead of spending 10 seconds gazing helplessly at it before moving on?
Our podcast is designed to help visitors build museum viewing skills. Listeners will learn how to approach any work of art, whether it be 15th Century Japanese architecture, Victorian decorative art or 20th Century modernist. It will train visitors to engage in close observation of pieces and learn how to prioritize gallery time. We will show that it can be more fruitful to spend 10 minutes with a single piece, rather than to race through a room looking at every painting. We will encourage visitors to become more confident art viewers, allowing them to have more relaxing and fulfilling museum visits.
