Vital New Podcast on Powerful Women Artists from the Getty Museum Alice Neel Viva la Mujer Lee Krasner Deal with It Betye Saar Your Particular Jellybean Helen Frankenthaler Let ’er Rip Yoko Ono A Kind of Meeting Point Eva Hesse Oh, More Absurdity From the Getty: Radical Women What was it like to be a woman making art during the feminist and civil rights movements? In this season of Recording Artists, host Helen Molesworth delves into the lives and careers of six women artists spanning several generations. Hear them describe, in their own words, their work, relationships, and feelings about the ongoing march of feminism. Contemporary artists and art historians join the conversation, offering their own perspectives on the recordings and exploring what it meant—and still means—to be a woman and an artist. This podcast is based on interviews from the 1960s and ’70s by Cindy Nemser and Barbara Rose, drawn from the archives of the Getty Research Institute.
