Listen "Encore episode: The Making of Monet"
Episode Synopsis
If you snagged tickets to the next live taping of The Object, with Dessa, on May 11—nice work! They're now sold out. In the meantime, enjoy this encore presentation of one of our most popular episodes ever. He was the original rebel with a cause, dedicated to showing the world a new way of seeing. But what if Claude Monet's real cause was...Claude Monet? What if his rise from scorn and poverty to become one of the most beloved and wealthy artists in history was fueled by myth and marketing? Can we love him anyway?
You can see Monet's work, well, almost everywhere. But you can see it now, in conversation with the art of Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, at Mia: https://new.artsmia.org/exhibition/hokusai-monet
