About this listen

This episode, Riley O'Keeffe joins us for a paranoid rant about the conspiracies that have plagued the art world.


Dan Brown's "Da Vinci Code" may be eyeroll-inducing, but what about rumours that Marina Abramovic is a cult leader? Or that the CIA assassinated Mary Pinchot Meyer?


From Abstract Expressionism being Anti-Soviet propaganda, to the bizarre death of Mark Lombardi, we bunk and debunk some of the art world's most easily Google-able conspiracies.


A trigger warning for this episode, some of the discussions include mentions of suicide, domestic violence, sexual assault, drugs and murder.
