This episode is dedicated to beloved and prematurely deceased American artist Mike Kelley. The Tate Modern has set up an impressive retrospective, those once-in-a-lifetime exhibitions that you cannot miss if you're in town. So we decided to dig in and bring it to you if you can't make it and enhance your experience if you did. There are opinions, feelings, stories and a cacophonous experience that will leave no one indifferent.  Jack White finally makes an appearance again as we had once promised!  Joana and Emily introduce you to the universe of Mike Kelley, of anarchist and punk teenage and young adult years, who ceaselessly poked at the overwhelming and overpowering world of entertainment. Then they move on to his academic life and career achievements, always marked by a rebellious streak consistently visible in his work about the traps of memory, the failings of education and psychology, and the fine line between fiction and reality.

Art curator and writer Joana P. R. Neves guides you through the vibrant, sometimes intimidating, world of galleries and installations in Exhibitionistas │Visual Arts From All Angles. This isn't a dry lecture series; instead, it feels like having a knowledgeable friend who can decode the stories behind the canvas and the choices within a gallery space. Each episode is built on the idea that a meaningful art experience is for everyone, whether you're a seasoned collector or someone who simply feels curious during a museum visit. You'll be pulled into immersive audio travelogues that transport you to specific exhibitions, overhear genuine discussions with fellow spectators about what moved or puzzled them, and get straight answers from artists and curators in candid conversations. Joana playfully untangles both contemporary themes and enduring artistic questions, making connections that feel personal and relevant. The whole point of this podcast is to demystify the visual arts, replacing uncertainty with a sense of informed confidence. It provides the context and diverse perspectives that allow you to develop your own critical eye, ultimately putting you in charge of how you see and interpret art. Tune in for a thoughtful, engaging mix of analysis and anecdote that deepens your appreciation for what's on display.
