Summary
Join Alex Pavljuk, Digital Content Strategist at the Montclair Art Museum, as he speaks with Blood and Ink author Joe Pompeo about an upcoming book talk he’ll be moderating with fellow narrative nonfiction writer Michelle Young. They discuss her recent book The Art Spy, the intersection of fine art and literature, and how researchers and historical novelists draw on libraries, museums, and cultural institutions to inform their work. This episode is in association with the upcoming series of booktalks, From Resistance to Revelation: Stories of Art and Intrigue in France. In partnership with Watchung Booksellers, this three-part book talk series explores the power of art in times of war, loss, and transformation. From the streets of Nazi-occupied Paris to the galleries of the world’s great museums, each conversation will reveal how artists, curators, and everyday people work to preserve culture and make meaning during moments of upheaval.
