21:38Episode 2: Why Is Art History Important? The episode in which I attempt to explain why art history is important... with a few interesting tidbits about my past (hint: Quackenbush).
The first episode of Stuff about Things: An Art History Podcast. In this episode, I introduce myself (HI!) and my general conception for the podcast. Happy listening!
