Who Arted: Weekly Art History for All Ages
Arts:Visual Arts
This week we are wrapping up Round 3 of Arts Madness 2024. The matches are very close. Last week, Emily Kame Kngwarreye beat Keith Haring by a single vote. This week, one of the most famous artists of all time is on track to be eliminated. Be sure to check the links below to see the brackets and vote for your favorites.
I also wanted to share something for a little fun fact Friday. As many long time listeners know, I love a good caper or con (see the linked episodes below). I recently learned that as a young adult, Michelangelo, the famous Renaissance artist, engaged in some forgery.
