The Culture Show Podcast

Mary Grant, president of MassArt, joins us for her monthly episode, “AI Actual Intelligence.” This month she talks about the Department of Homeland Security’s use of Norman Rockwell’s paintings on their social media channels.

Then we look at the Florida Highwaymen, the group of Black painters who turned Florida’s wild horizons into some of the most sought-after landscapes of the 20th century. Their vibrant scenes—sunrises, storm fronts, and stretching marshland—are now the focus of a major exhibition at the Addison Gallery. Curator Gordon Wilkins joins us to explore their artistry, their hustle, and the legacy they carved outside the mainstream. To learn more, go here.
