What Is a Painting?
What do you see when you look at a painting? You see the subject and the style of the work but also the materials and technologies used to create it and the traces of everything that has happened to it. Professional paintings conservator Jean Dommermuth considers how all of those factors contribute to what a painting is. You don’t need to know anything about art history to enjoy this podcast, but no matter what, you’ll never look at a painting the same way again. You can find images and related materials at jeandommermuth.com/podcast

Love it!
Very engaging and informative. I love watching documentaries about art but hadn’t found a podcast I really liked on the subject. It can’t be easy to speak about art that the listener is probably not even looking at and make it interesting, but she does a great job.

A unique offering
I’m a big visual art and art history podcast fan and this feels completely different to anything else I’ve come across. It’s interesting and insightful, and feels like it’s covering new ground in a new way. I really enjoy it. Please keep the episodes coming.

I like going to museums, but wouldn’t consider myself an art nut or anything. But these episodes are really interesting—I’m finding myself really engaged in them, & feeling excited for my next museum visit, as I’ll appreciate things more.
