Welcome!

Welcome to bip[art]isan, a podcast based in the Department of Art History and Archaeology at the University of Maryland. We aim to make art history accessible beyond the confines of academia and art museums by connecting the history of art to current events. Through informal, yet intellectually structured conversations and interviews, bip[art]isan strives to create a space where we can demystify art history and reveal the discipline's compelling urgency and relevance to a wider audience.

Who are we?
