ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week I'm joined by my good friend Peter Sabatino for a conversation all about Vincent Van Gogh's personal and artistic legacy. We both read the book Van Gogh: The Life by Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith, a gigantic magisterial biography that affected us both in surprising ways. While Van Gogh embodies the archetypal image of the "tortured artist," there's so much more to his story, and Peter and I wanted to share our personal reactions to the aesthetic gift that Van Gogh created for the world in his short, difficult, astounding life.
