Art Sistory

Brandi and Danni Lin

Brandi and Danni are two sisters who just happen to be dead inside. With no fulfilling careers, longtime relationships, or children, they turn to the only thing promised to give them a feeling: art. Every week, Brandi and Danni will get face to face with art, discuss the wack history behind it, and evaluate its life-giving powers. Join us on Art Sistory, where two sisters put art to the ultimate test: can it make you feel alive? If you listen in, maybe you will feel just a little less dead inside too.

Our good friend and french art history buff, Hadley Leary, sent us on a mission to find the one, the only, Élisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun and her painting, Peace Bringing Back Abundance (1780). This painting was Le Brun's slap to the patriarchy! Her karate chop to the systemized oppression! And her refusal to be pinned down as just one kind of painter. She is a fireball of feminist excellence (and also maybe possibly definitely had a lesbian affair with Marie Antoinette).

The only original Praxiteles sculpture might just be in Cleveland, Ohio. Or it might be a 19th century lawn gnome. We may never know. And Cleveland certainly isn't telling us. Welcome to our newest episode of twists, turns, art dealing conspiracies, and a nightmarish 4 day old god. It's a good fun time, we swear.

Welcome to our first ever collab episode! Today our good friend and Prague expert, Eve Asher, sent us on a horrible adventure to see the art of the resident Czech Republic Bad Boy, David Černý. His art may be full of cheeky twists and turns but the one thing we can all be sure of is that Černý sucks! Today, we saw his Babies (1999) sculptures which are horrible and good fun but be warned, they will burn your butt off if you climb them in the sun. Beezle learned that the hard way.

Art Sistory - Ep 35: We Stan a Power Bottom
play

11/20/19 • 46 min

If there was any sculpture that could be called the gayest, it would be this. Donatello's David (1450s) is a bastion of homoerotic glory. From his booty to his tooty, he is the one twink to rule them all. Step aside haters, because this David embodies queer culture in Renaissance Florence and even Michelangelo's legendary twunk is quaking.

07/24/19 • 50 min

The Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood is the most rock n' roll church in all of Russia. And it's not just the name, Spilled Blood has the chutzpah to back it up. She's got gingerbread aesthetic, bombs in the ceiling, Potato Jesus, and a curse on the Soviet Union! Hang on tight as Brandi attempts to describe the last 200 years of Russian history in 20 minutes.
