I found this podcast told with a feminist twist and focus as very educational and easy to listen to. I thoroughly enjoyed all the episodes and even went back to look at some of the painting that were mentioned. Thank you for researching and explaining modern art and its painters!

Good information but the host projects her progressive modern worldview and values onto the past too much. It’s enough to point out the inequalities of society and the art world. We don’t need to be repeatedly beat over the head with the unfairness of the past (and present) we can draw conclusions on our own from a factual statement/ disclaimer.

I was excited about the idea of a woman hosting an art history podcast. While I appreciate that she pointed out how women in the 19th century did not have access to art education, it seemed off topic. The discussion was about how the Impressionists were kept out of the Salon. The Impressionists in discussion were all male. This story is about the triumph of the iconoclastic Impressionists as they struggled against the traditions of the Salon. Women were at a disadvantage on either side. Overall, Klaire’s modern liberal buzzwords are trite and excessively forceful. This brings up two important points. If you’re looking at history through the narrow lens of modern progressive sentiments, then you will fail to understand it. I am looking for a professor of art history who understands it and can explain it; both the positive and negative aspects. Second, if you detest history because it doesn’t conform to your self-righteous rules of right and wrong, then maybe it’s best to stick with your social media where the same unintelligent opinions keep going around.

Well-researched information laid out in a clear way and delivered with an engaging voice. Some shows like this can lose you pretty easily, but this one totally had me locked in for a long drive.

Wonderful stuff. It’d be a little easier on the ears if she’d reign in the adolescent mockery, though…

Klaire is a knowledgeable teacher! Her research is top notch.

Klaire takes you through a whirlwind of the history of art in a fun, subversive way. This is not a worship-fest of Great Art, rather it helps you understand and challenge fussy ideas about What Art Is and Does. Highly recommended!!

Always wanted to know more about these movements.

Of course I like my own podcast!

If you are looking for a great podcast for your first post-pandemic road trip, this is it! Smart, entertaining, and informative.

Klaire presents an intensely entertaining intersectional approach to the history of modern art. If you don’t learn something here you are either way too well read or an asshat.

This podcast really brings a great combination of entertainment and knowledge. I appreciate the context Klaire brings to art made for an audience living in a different time, making the “why’s” make sense. I really love the way Klaire makes so much information digestible and fun!

I can’t wait to dive in to art history with Klaire! I can’t think of a better way to learn about art than through Klaire’s sweet, sultry voice. I don’t “do art”, but even someone like me can appreciate this wonderful podcast.
