Episode 659 | What is The Meaning of Ugly in Art?

Our episode embarks on a mission to discover if an artwork can truly be ugly, and how does that translate to an audience. We dig deeper into the works of Vincent Van Goh, who has many emotionally charged works that evoke deep contemplation about seemingly ugly ideas and dark emotions. From the work of Julia, Arsema, and myself, Delaney, we will get to the bottom of Vincent’s mission as an artist and determine if his works are literally ugly, or metaphorically ugly.
