What happens when myths, ancient literature, poetry, symbols, and graffiti get utilized as inspiration for a 21st century American with a blank canvas? We get the artwork of Cy Twombly, who is our gateway this month to alchemizing the past and present and turning it into visual form.
Listen in as Amy and Chris walk through Cy’s life, how he reminds us of the importance of surrounding ourselves with creative input, all art is part of a greater conversation, and sometimes being successful just means having the audacity.
