Minneapolis Institute of Art: Artsmia – The Object Podcast

The new episode of Mia’s #TheObjectPodcast explores a big question: Can happy people make art? Long before Vincent van Gogh died young, poor, and under-appreciated, artists had gotten the message: you have to suffer for your art. But where did this template of the starving artist come from? And is there any truth to it or is it a myth, a romantic misreading of how great art is made?
