Well, you will definitely not forget her after this incredible chat with photographer and photographic artist Josie Purcell! Anna Atkins is THE FIRST PERSON EVER to create a photo book with her 1843 Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions. How did she create this I hear you ask? Using the Cyanotype printing process!!  Listen to find out more about this incredible woman who helped make great advancements not only in art but within Science and botany. Happy International Women’s Day!

Her mother died when she was still a young girl and it was her father, a scientist and the first president of the Royal Entomological Society of London, who encouraged, and enabled, her interest in science. Women were frustratingly denied the option to follow their passions at that time, but fortunately for Anna, she was able to develop her interest in botany, including as a botanical illustrator and then using the Cyanotype process, which was invented by family friend Sir John Herschel. Through her family’s standing in society, she was able to attend meetings at the Royal Society where photography and science were discussed, something very few women could dream of accessing. Anna joined one of the few scientific societies open to women, The Botanical Society of London, in 1839. Anna produced two more books with her friend Anne Dixon: Cyanotypes of British and Foreign Ferns (1853) and Cyanotypes of British and Foreign Flowering Plants and Ferns (1854).

 19. Art Nouveau & Alphonse Mucha with Nico Paws | File Type: audio/x-m4a | Duration: 00:47:59

It’s Episode 19 and today we are all about ART NOUVEAU!!! This dreamy movement within art history is characterised by its whiplash waves and women who look like they are straight out of your dizzy daydreams! This week I welcome back Scottish Illustrator Nicole McLaughlin aka Nico Paws to talk about the work of the godfather of Art Nouveau - Alphonse Mucha! Mucha is responsible for some of Art Nouveau’s most iconic depictions but falls into the classic ‘know his work but not the artist’s name’ category. From dreamy interiors to using pin up girls in advertising, Mucha pathed the way for a new art movement born off the back of The Arts and Crafts Movement.

 18. The Complex Moral Issues of Animals in Contemporary Art with Ally Zlatar | File Type: audio/x-m4a | Duration: 00:50:09

It’s Episode 18! Welcome back to the Jo’s Art History Podcast. This week, I sit down with Art Historian and artist Ally Zlatar for a really thought provoking discussion all around the use of animals in contemporary art and the moral questions this can provoke. From artists living in pig pens and floating sharks in tanks; to fish in blenders and painted elephants. Ally and I talk about the lack of clarity around using both live and dead animals in art and the questions around the ethics and morality of using animals in such a way raise.  We explore if it is ever ok to kill an animal for the sake of art and why these works, although shocking are really, really, important at making us not only reflect on our values, but think about on how we take action against certain things, but not others! I want to thank Ally for bringing to my attention this area of art history, theory and philosophy - it’s a really thought provoking episode and starts a very important conversation around some VERY big questions.

 15. Tracey Emin and the Unmade Bed with Kerry Curl | File Type: audio/x-m4a | Duration: 00:54:18

IT’S EPISODE 15!! Today I sit down with the incredibly talented British Photographic artist Kerry Curl to discuss the powerhouse British artist that is TRACEY EMIN. To many, Emin needs no introduction. The baptised ‘Bad Girl’ of the art world, Tracey is associated with the group of artists known as the YBAs (Young British Artist) who took the London art scene by storm in the Late 1980s and 1990s! Emin, like her fellow YBAs, caused shockwaves across the art world not only through her varied use of materials but her tackling of ‘taboo’ subjects such as mental health, abortion, rape and grief. Sit back and relax as Kerry and I discuss Emin’s famous unmade bed, her savvy business women style and a VERY interesting article about Tracey’s Neon Sculpture and large Installation ‘I want my time with you.’ If you enjoy the episode, please make sure that you like, rate and subscribe so you will never miss one!
