Description

This year I will once again host my annual Arts Madness Tournament in March. I will be posting daily mini-episodes on 64 different artworks over the next 64 days to help everyone get to know the different artists and artworks, then this spring listeners will vote for their favorites over 6 rounds as we go from 64 diverse artworks down to 1 ultimate winner.
Today's episode is about one of the oldest works, the Apollo 11 stones. These painted stone fragments were found in a remote cave in Namibia back in 1969 just as the Apollo 11 mission landed on the moon.

Who Arted is art history and art education for everyone. While most art history podcasts focus on the traditional "fine art" we see in museums around the world, Who ARTed celebrates art in all of its forms and in terms anyone can understand. Each episode tells the story of a different artist and artwork including the traditional big names like Leonardo da Vinci, Pablo Picasso and Andy Warhol along with lesser-known artists working in such diverse media as video game design, dance, the culinary arts, and more. Who Arted is written and produced by an art teacher with the goal of creating a classroom resource that makes art history fun and accessible to everyone. Whether you are cramming for your AP Art History exam, trying to learn a few facts so you can sound smart at fashionable dinner parties, or just looking to hear something with a more positive tone, we’ve got you covered with episodes every Monday and Friday.
