The Obama’s National Portraits were revealed & the gossipy side of the internet was a buzz. On this episode, Ando & Eric discuss the good, the bad, & crazy surrounding these two interesting paintings. Dive into the history of The National Portrait Gallery. A bizarre & racist interpretation. The most important is topic though is who should be commissioned Donald Trump’s portrait?
info_outlineToday Eric and Ando blaze through 4 topics. Pussy Riot seeks asylum in Sweden, and the Guggenheim offers Donald Trump a golden toilet by Maurizio Cattelan. Topics become more serious when they bring up Nan Goldin and the opioid crisis in the US. Goldin calls on her fellow artists and art institutions to resist the Sackler Family and Purdue Pharma. What would be an episode BTW without an interjection of Jeff Koons. We discuss how he wants to "honor" of the victims of the recent terrorist attacks in Paris.
