Description

Stephanie and Russell are back with a full serving and boy, it is piping hot.Pick up our new Art Slice Museum Shirt by Son Siwakorn here: https://www.artslicepod.com/shopBe sure to listen to all the cuts that didn’t make it into the episode (and there are plenty in this one) on our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/artslicepodStephanie and Russell are back (!) to discuss two prolific artists who were opposites in many ways: one was wealthy, one was not; one was cold, one was hot; one is well-known in Art History, one is not.Marcel Duchamp is considered hugely influential to changing modern painting and sculpture through his contributions to Dada, Surrealism, eventually inspiring Pop Art. Maria Martins, a pioneering Brazilian sculptor making bold, sexy, and surreal works the art world had yet to see in the 1940s, is rarely ever mentioned in Modern Art History despite exhibiting with the Surrealists or she is merely mentioned as “Marcel Duchamp’s mistress” (which is incorrect).Their paths crossed in the 1940s New York City art scene, where they mingled and fell in love, leading them to pursue an unexpected fiery romance that had a lasting and fascinating impact on their lives, their artwork, and ultimately, Art History.Stephanie and Russell discuss elements of their relationship through Maria Martin’s The Impossible III (1946) and Marcel Duchamps’ “Etants Donnes” (1946 -1966).Topics include: Rectangular Boys of Parlor, the Fourth Dimension, urinals, Mar-kel Du-chump, sensual samba dancers, face cleavage, runaway vaginas, Thomas Kinkade, and teeny hacksaws.The Art Pantry this week is Bronze Casting.The song featured in this episode was “I Hate Him So Much” by Anonymous 420 from the album This Is All A Dream which can be found here: https://chezmonplaisir.bandcamp.com/ Support Rrrrrose’s mission to create queer, free music against Capitalism and Fascism on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/loyaltyfreakmusicCheck out AP Leslie’s Knees Turned Velvet.: https://www.amazon.com/Knees-Turned-Velvet-Poetry-Collection/dp/1980482012Check out Telezma Studio’s Tarot Deck: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TelezmaStudiosCheck out the new Art Crime podcast Caper:https://ochentastudio.com/caper-podcast Reviewing, subscribing, liking, and sharing really helps support the show:Follow us on twitter, tiktok, youtube, and instagram all @artslicepodYou can also support us on Patreon here and/or grab some merch: https://www.artslicepod.com/shopAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

A humorous, inclusive, and Palatable Serving of Art History, brought to you by visual artists and Art Historian Stephanie Dueñas and Russell Shoemaker. We cover Art History in a totally different way - without all the gatekeeping, privilege, and that cognitive fog called ‘art speaking’. We dig into the famous artists you may have slept through during your Art History lectures, and the ones that have been left out; possibly due to their ethnicity, gender, race, sexual identity, or lack of institutional access. We talk about the context of the time, relate it to today and then we discuss the actual artwork: what’s in it, what it’s about, what’s it made from - is it any good? All from an artist’s perspective, and then we decide if it goes in the eclectic Art Slice Museum - which is definitely real and NOT imaginary. Oh… and we have to keep our hungry, hungry Pantrémons satiated by feeding them practical descriptions of art mediums and movements from our Art Slice Pantry, or they might eat us. Follow along with the images we discuss at artslicepod.com or @artslicepod on Instagram.
