About us
We started the pod on the 2nd of January 2024 – our first recording ever. We had been meeting in museums to chat about our lives and we noticed that we ended up talking about the exhibitions we had just seen. Why not share this unique perspective of a – very informed! – art lover and an art professional chatting away about our impressions, sharing general history and art history tidbits but, most of all, discovering together the complexity of an artistic journey and the wealth of experiences it brings about to exhibitions goers.
Art is about sharing, talking, time, attention, and you, our listeners, may not have space in your lives for more research.
That is where we come in, we do the research but we also react to our findings in a sincere and engaged way, in a conversational format. We do not shy away from anecdotes and you may experience thoughts forming live, impressions being dissected, and even, at times, diverging perspectives.

What the people say about us
Refreshing approach to art!
What a pair! Funny real and meaningful podcast… Love how clear this podcast shows that to be touched by exhibitions one only needs to bring its own experiences and open mind. I was really touched by this approach: not always easy to find in contemporary art and life in general.
Interesting format
…to inform about artists and exhibitions. Looking forward for the next episode.
