Listen now
Description
In this Second Slice of Art History, we dig into the lesser known Dorothea Tanning work - her prismatic or insomnia works from the 1950s. To get access to this episode and support Art Slice, head on over to: www.patreon.com/artslicepod MUSIC: Scanglobe - Undulation (Remix)  We are just gonna say it: August...absolutely... kicked our butts. It’s like when you're creating something, it doesn't quite turn out how you want it to - like that painting in the studio that you just can't look at anymore because you've struggled so much with it - you just have to put it away for a while and come back to it.  . . . So we did. It was especially disappointing because we had such high hopes for August. However, things are in the upswing - we will have a full serving and a Color Theory episode in the next few weeks.  In the meantime, here is a Patreon exclusive we managed to put together from a segment we just couldn't fit into a full episode...on Dorothea Tanning's time in Sedona Arizona, and the prismatic-abstract-but-not-that-abstract work she made as a result of her time there (which we LOVE). Anyway, we're going to try and enjoy what’s left of August...which is…*checks calendar* … OH GOD. ...we'd love to know what you thought about Dorothea's prismatic works as well... let us know!  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
