About this episode

The History of Modern Art with Klaire is a new podcast where artist and educator Klaire Lockheart will explore Modernism through a 21st century intersectional feminist lens. Over the course of this series, Klaire will cover Orientalism, Postimpressionism, Modernism, Fauvism, Cubism, Suprematism, Dadaism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art, and then conclude with Postmodernism. Klaire will structure this series like an introductory art history course, but she will include at least 25% more tirades than in her typical classes.
