We are so excited to share a new series from our Canadian podcast friends Once Upon a Time in Hollywood North
A series about a group of artists known as the Professional Native Indian Artists Incorporation (PNIAI) or as they were dubbed by the press: the Indigenous Group of Seven.
This was significant because the most famous Euro-Canadian painters then were known as the Group of Seven which put respect on their name - especially for Indigenous artists who were still thought of as less than their white counterparts as well as their work being seen more as anthropology than art...
The PNIAI artists include:
Daphne Odjig
Alex Janvier
Jackson Beardy
Eddy Cobiness
Norval Morrisseau
Carl Ray
Joseph Sanchez
Listen to the first episode here, then go and subscribe to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood North to finish the series over the coming weeks.

Once the series has wrapped up we will have a bonus episode covering some of our favorite works from the series.

And try - TRY - to make some sense of the sorted history of Pink, from its humble algae origins to its 20th century capitalist feminine turn.

Purple w/ Caldwell Tanner - Art Slice Museum Laboratories Division of Color Theory & Color Studies
Want to watch instead of listen? Do so here: https://youtu.be/Qw4YLLwleD0
For its SEVENTH installment, the Art Slice Museum Laboratories Division of Color Theory and Color Studies brings you the extra-spectral, enigmatic (and sometimes controversial) PURPLE - and we have artist, illustrator, animator and (duncle) Caldwell Tanner of Not Another DnD Podcast (NaddPod), Drawfee, Big City Greens - on deck to help sort it out.
Is it actually violet? Or have color manufacturers fudged the visuals? Or is purple hidden in plain sight, filling in the voids of our imaginations and our physical world?
We get into all of this - discussing purple’s history - its ancient lineage beginning often laborious flora origins, its unwavering sense of mystery and wonder yet it’s reincarnation into pop cultural characters - as well as it's characteristics, and your color associations!
Key moments include: Grimace (original), Qin Shi Huang, world wide mollusk milking, purple kimonos, Klasky Csupo, Cleopatra, Grimace (current day), colorful Giallo horror flicks, Harry Clarke, Lois Dodd, and what kind of pants robots could wear...
