Art History for All

By: Allyson Healey
  • Summary

  • From art lovers to art haters to art-is-just-okay-ers, Art History for All aims to get all kinds of people thinking about art and what it means to them. Each episode, Allyson Healey tackles a single work of art and its history and larger significance, always asking the question: so what? Art History for All takes you beyond the art historical canon and helps you find the way in which art speaks to you (even if it's never spoken to you before)

Really enjoyable

This podcast is really refreshing to someone like me without much of a background in art but with an appreciation of history and a long-standing intention to learn more about art history. I am very much enjoying this series, please do continue!

Very good, unfortunately to much politica opinion

She really knows a lot about the artworks she discusses. However it is annoying that she keeps on adding her own political views.

The podcast does not need this.
