jacksonp92I hate to say it…But for all of the outstanding artists featured on this podcast, the host Tyler Green does not seem to do them justice as an interviewer. Sure he often does some very good research in preparing for the interviews, but he oftentimes sounds apathetic and even bored during these. Sometimes (and I’m remembering the episode with Roni Horn), it’ll become clear that he’s not interpreting the work correctly, the artist will even correct him, but he will fail to be sensitive, he keeps barreling through with inane questions.

jamieiacoliPlease Improve SoundI really enjoy the content, but the sounds quality makes this an unpleasant listen. In the episode I have on now, the person being interviewed has severe vocal fry (which could possibly be an easy fix) but their audio is such poor quality they keep cutting out. How can you publish a podcast with this level of audio? Pretty disappointing.

AllisonLalaEngaging and distinctEngaging, necessary, long form conversations between studied host and his diverse list of intriguing guests, delivered in a relaxed but focused interview that brings one to understand intention and deeper meaning. Thank you.

mfkartGreat topics and conversationsConsistently interesting and insightful conversations that get you thinking about broader topics in the art world

Mae TvMGreat show, poor audioThe content of the show is great. I just wish the audio was better. The host is either a low talker and/or has a mediocre sound system/mic. Often, I can hear the guests clearly but not him.
-
SlimebodyI wish there were more podcasts like thisThis is easily the best weekly art podcast. As a host Green is a bit dry but his interviews are exceptionally focused, well-researched, and probing.

urlyturtleDyani White Hawk conversationWonderful to hear Dyani White Hawk speak of her journey and processes. Favorite: the moment of deeper and broader truth as she realizes the slow, painstaking quill work and the grad school schedule exist in separate time fields and cultures, and where to go from this juncture. Thank you Tyler Green for great questions and dialog.

webby20090310If you love art....If you find that art gives you the lift you need to be more connected to the world and those around us…. this podcast is a place to nurture your yourself and learn even more about what other artists are doing to help us reach that deeper connection…. Love it. Take it for what it is…. We are all nerds at something - if we are lucky!

FrandalExceptional art historical and contemporary discussionsTyler Green does a superb job of engaging artists, curators and other arts professionals about their work and its address in the art historical cannon. Tyler’s erudite and encyclopedia knowledge explores the subject matter, drawing out his interviewees into wonderful anecdotes and deeper layers of meaning and connection. Bravo to Tyler for keeping his podcast ongoing throughout 10 years and counting. Thank you for your commitment to open-source resources, too!

ja_32_NYFantastic Current Art Shows and Art HistoryIntelligent, interesting and informative. Tyler Green does an exceptional job of engaging the guests. In depth discussions of art and artists. Really love the art history aspect of this podcast. Where host and guest take a deep dive into works and provide historical context. High recommend!

Gman 7Could be perfectIntelligent, varied, with depth and a host who truly interviews and doesn’t spend time offering lots of his own opinions, unlike some other art podcasts. My only issue is that the host’s voice is so low, esp at the end of phrases and sentences, that you can’t hear him. It’s a little maddening if you’re really actively listening. If the host would speak up or better balance the volume btn himself and the guests, this podcast would be perfect.

katja zArt history continuing educationThis erudite and engaging podcast offers “continuing education” for art enthusiasts. I learn and “see” more listening to Tyler’s insightful dialogues with artists, critics, historians.

B.Y. JellyFound my favorite artistsI’ve only been a listener for a few months but this podcast helped me discover some of my new favorite artists. Really good stuff.

julyandavisAlways enjoyableAnother erudite podcast (with Amy Cutler). Always very professional and high caliber. Amy, pig racing is indeed a thing, and I have painted the poor creatures at the Mountain State Fair here in Asheville (NC).

ThemoonlitnestMy favorite art podcastI discovered Modern Art Notes over a year ago +rarely miss an episode. I really enjoy the way Tyler Green interviews his guests. I find his podcast to be at once soothing, inspiring + educational. The episode webpage has images of the works mentioned, so you can easily keep track of the topic + understand more. Thank you for providing this rich resource!
-
RmpmcdermottBest art podcast aroundTyler isn’t just one of the best art writers, but also a fantastic interviewer. I always leave the podcast wanting to explore the artists with which he speaks.
-
@thebrushandthecompassThank youI get inspiration and specific knowledge that has enhanced my appreciation for art, museums, people and history. Thank you for the incredible level of the quality of your content :)

Emery RouetteAmbivalentTyler Green is sure to say a least one thing per episode that makes me throw-up in my mouth. Recent examples include: “The geography was freighted” and “well, they’re going to have trouble attracting artists of significance after this.” (To conclude an interview where I was vibing with him more than usual 🥴)His frictionless professionalism and eerie even-temperedness, punctuated only by arrogant gaffes, leave me wondering if he’s a bot. However, the guests are often great and the content news to me. He should consider adding a cohost. I nominate Dr. Kelli Morgan. Actually give her the show GIVE HER EVERYTHING

PhocaRockArtists today, art history. The beauty, the injustices, revealed.Fascinating and educational! Tyler Green's choices of which art people to focus on is spot on. The one with Lava Thomas is a perfect example! Many of these podcasts shine a direct spotlight on injustices of all sorts, and blatent abuses of power, all through the lens of art.

APassionProjectBest Art Podcast Out ThereI’ve listened to about 400 of the 450 of The Modern Art Notes Podcast. Tyler Green the host always comes well informed and asks genuinely very good questions.
-
SkyhellerPerfectly pitchedThis podcast is a gem for anyone seeking to deepen their knowledge of modern art; although it assumes a reasonable amount of background knowledge, it also manages to make itself understandable to those outside the formal art world.
-
Jim Two Shoesehthe guests are often really interesting but the interviewer is repeatedly underwhelming.
-
Chadd ScottNext level art podcastWhen your passion and understanding of art goes beyond an introductory level, this is a great podcast to advance to and deepen your knowledge.

afripixFood for thoughtLike bread -- The M.A.N. podcast is an essential staple.
-
TamalinSoleilIncredible interviews of artists and arts professionalsThis podcast is a beautiful wealth of knowledge. It brings us into the personal space of contemporary artists’ studios, and paints the picture of where we are now within the context of art history.
-
sarahfburnsA TreasureConsistent, thoughtful interviews of contemporary artists and curators. This podcast has introduced me to many artists and has expanded my understanding of others. I love going to see a show after Tyler has had a discussion about it with a curator. It adds such a great extra layer to the experience.
-
forbidden veggiesArt and art historyOne of the best podcasts on art. Not supported directly, in house, by a museum. Stunning information.
-
MxDxVxExcellent art talkConsistently excellent conversations with artists and curators! Dives deep. If you love art you must listen to this fantastic podcast.

Lynda in LAArt history, studio visits and museum docent tours all wrapped into one showI so look forward to the Modern Art Notes podcasts and if I can I explore the episode page while I am listening. The MAN podcast a mix of art history, studio visits and museum docent tours all wrapped into one show. As a painter I’ve discovered new exhibits to visit and artists to look and find it perfect for listening while I’m in my studio. It’s a fun hour or so since the host, Tyler Green, asks fascinating questions to the guests and brings so much knowledge and insight into each episode.
-
Crista CloutierSmart and InterestingThere's so much to choose from here! This podcast is for art geeks like me who don't care if it's contemporary or historical, just give us the goods. And Modern Art Podcast delivers.
-
MasonJahrGreat Learning ToolI’ve am fairly new to this podcast but I think I’ve learned more about art than I ever learned in college art classes. The podcast covers current exhibitions and expands your understanding of the work when you go to the exhibitions. The podcast makes you aware of current exhibitions that may not be in your immediate environment. There’s very frequently a connection to art history and current exhibitions. Also Tyler covers art history in general. The format of the conversations is intelligent. I have and will continue to recommend the podcast to others. My criticism is that Tyler drops the pitch of his voice frequently and he is sometimes difficult to hear.
-
pufhhyffghA good companionThese conversations are a great addition to my studio hours, enjoyable and revealing.
-
acaciameiEnlighteningI am a MA student studying Modern and Contemporary Art History. Tyler consistently releases content that is insightful and follows the pulse of contemporary art historical thought. I have been listening for several years and always find myself refreshing my feed to see if he has released a new episode. I recommend this podcast to anyone who wants to supplement their interest in the art world with thought provoking content and in-depth interviews with artists, researchers, and curators.

awesome77777777777777777I’m an art lover. BUT.Interviewees are SO pretentious sounding. I’ve tried to listen to several of these, and all I can think is how pretentious the people are. It’s what gives the art world a bad name. It’s a turn-off even for art lovers like me and will do nothing to help promote the value of art to anyone in the real world. Disappointing.
-
JudithLDBest art podcast out thereI subscribe to several podcasts that focus on the visual arts, and this one is the best. Tyler Green is informed and, as a result, an expert interviewer. I live on the West Coast, and I appreciate that he covers artists and exhibits across the country. Sometimes I listen to a podcast twice because I want to make sure I didn't miss anything.
-
swinkblinkGreat for people looking to understand artThis podcast is great to find out more about how artists think (and thru that better understand their artwork). Wonderful way to get inspiration if you have a long commute and to keep up with who’s important in the art world.
-
BlossomMerzAmazing interviewer!This podcast is a must thanks to Tyler’s amazing interviewing skills. He obviously knows what he’s talking about and asks intelligent questions, often prompting his incredible array of guests to think about their work in a different way.
-
bombsplicerModern art notes podcastI really like this series. I’m going to listen to all of them over the next couple years. I don’t have a problem with the sound, but I listen on my phone with ear buds. Maybe the previous reviewer doesn’t. I expect I’ll be getting a good education here.

Ed ListeningInsightfulI use Modern Arts Notes Podcast as listening on long commutes & drives. So much insight with each episode.

EronRauchIncrebile Insights Into Art Past and PresentSometimes art can feel like an overwhelmingly vast and forbiding cultural ocean, even for die-hard fans. Modern Art Notes is one of the best resources to bring both the deep past and far-flung future of art into a human scale. Tyler's curiosity and ernest love of art is infectious, as facinated and passionate about the nuances of 14th century Italian Rennaisance painter studios as he is about the conceptual manuevers of contemporary video art. It would hardly be uncommon to have both subjects paired in a episode. Also, I know some folks have complained about sound quality, but many of his guests are amongst the most known artists and curators spread across the world, and getting direct access to their voices and ideas is too much of a rare treat to fret about a bit of fuzzy recording from a 80-year old master artist who only has a land line or whatnot!
-
carolynzickAlways insightfulThe Modern Art Notes podcast is an extraordinary ongoing installment of thoughtful and thorough examinations of artists, their work and the world they create. Host Tyler Green is not afraid to probe into the intention behind the work and frequently receives thought-provoking answers from the creators of such work. In an art world that is frequently more consumed with the superficial, Tyler continues to reach for the human and authentic elements that can make art so worthy of discussion.

27slmWhy this podcast is importantthis podcast is filled with pertinent information, wonderful interviews… Feels like I am in art school when I listen.

Abner DoubledayTop notch guests and interviewsJust found this podcast and am catching up on past interviews. Tyler Green does an excellent job as an interviewer, connecting the dots with his questions and insights. Am consumed with regret that I let so many great museum shows pass me by...will be ordering catalogues to compensate, and pledge that now that I am in the loop with MAN I will visit more! Having sampled many podcasts, I can say that although the sound quality is a bit rough in spots, it is quite acceptable.
-
DJB1774By far the bestThrough, wide scope, researched and exceptionally well done. A feast of information and insight. Mr. Green has great interviewing skills with both artists and curators- listen and enjoy. Don't forget the supporting website. A+.
-
Hungry RobinVery informative and livelyI really enjoy this podcast. As an artist I listen for historical insight but also for those questions that draw the artist out in a new directions, questions that allow them to discover something about their art through the conversation, which is very differnt than looking at your own work critically. As an arts educator I recommend this podcast to all my Art & art history students.
