Episode No. 676 features curator Jay A. Clarke. With Jill Lloyd, Clarke is the co-curator of "Paula Modersohn-Becker: I Am Me," which is on view at the Art Institute of Chicago through January 12, 2025. The career-surveying exhibition features Modersohn-Becker's proto-expressionist works that address subjects and themes such as childhood, the bodily experience of motherhood, pregnancy, and old age. "Modersohn-Becker" also features many of the artist's self-portraits, including the first nude self-portraits known to have been made by a woman. The excellent exhibition catalogue was published by Prestel Verlag. Amazon and Bookshop offer it for $40-47.
