Hey! Apocryphon by The Sword has a great cover too
I caught that... "Open the country, stop having it be closed" https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxXwpjbkEy20IMN7A9Ri9CsTnttNTvANFW?feature=shared
art novo
Around 0:26:00 - this room is a real life SCP.
Hell yeah, The Sword ❤️
If Batman the Animated Series had been drawn in Art Nouveau instead of Art Deco there would be approximately 20000% more dudes on the internet arguing how evocative and neat it is, right now. Both are nice.
Cool example of round train cars from this era, not sure if they are art nouveau, are the Robbins Cylindrical Steel Car.
Alice is not alone in being the only transfemme without a blahaj. There are dozens of us! Dozens!
Listening to this made me want to look back at Sigfried Giedion's Mechanization Takes Command. Thanks for such a great architecture episode!
Well worth joining patreon for this episode, please do one for Art Deco! I need more metal women in my life...
“I have depicted myself as the chad and you as the horrible peacock-man” necessitated that I pull over for several seconds until I was no longer laughing so hard that I could not see.
I unfortunately must beg to differ on one point: "Art Nouveau" was not the first time somebody tried to call it new art. The Renaissance (the "rebirth") was the first time they tried to call it new art. Art Nouveau is therefore Art 3.0.
The rebirth referenced by the Renaissance was a rebirth of classicist values, driven by a newly literate merchant class who had an explosion of newly printed classical texts to read. Really, it was a bunch of reactionaries rediscovering olden tomes that were used to build an iconoclastic relationship of capital, wealth, and mercantile power into an emerging urbane society.
I cant download the links that show up here
I am firmly with Alice on the hotels thing. I am too chronic illness to deal with a shitty hotel if I'm going to be spending any time there. My only complaint with this strategy is that the fancier the hotel, the LESS likely it is to have self-service laundry.
Took some edibles and didn't expect to watch this. So much fun listening to them nerd the fuck out
Huh. Interesting. I do like Art Nouveau more now that I know it's queer and I eagerly await a sort of school of Judy Chicago/Tracey Emin revival but please with no Mucha tote bags.
I think the meme has it backwards. Deco came after nouveau, right? Maybe he’s into older people.
Voodoo Ranger is one of the few tall boys you can get as singles in a lot of grocery stores that's acceptable to beer connoisseurs such as myself. wait who are all you people and how did you get in my house Edit: Also since it's Friday and I can drink, plus it's snowing, I think I might go down to my basement later and watch The World Is Not Enough, which I didn't get a chance to enjoy over the Christmas holiday. Pretty sure some Gaudi buildings come up in the opening action scene.
I think something I take for granted sometimes is the sheer depth of knowledge our hosts have. They casually throw around deep references to art movements, architecture, history, engineering… I wish my smooth brain could keep up with these three
This episode was perfectly timed for me. I'm building a dnd campaign set in the Edwardian Era with a lot of history of the city in the decades prior. Thank you for the inspiration for my nerd shit!
Ah shit this is gonna be a hard one to only listen to
The weird alien lamppost looks just like the Martian ships in the 1950s version of War of the Worlds.
Are you going to post the audio of this and Golf to the patreon podcast feed? I want to listen to you talk about art nouveau for 3 hours but there's basically zero chance of me sitting down and watching it on youtube for various practical and neurodivergence-related reasons.
Yes
Also, did they do a Frank Lloyd Wright regular episode? I can't remember. I want to hear about Fallingwater almost collapsing because Wright was bad at maths. That's a proper engineering disaster.
Also the murders.
I logged into god's own Patreon dot gov just to tell Alice that her idea for a Belle Epoque podcast is a certified banger and to please seriously consider it.
I'm reminded of a Muppets clip. ART! ART! ART!
I have to start a schism over the Gaudi slander sorry
when a rich dude in the late 1800s lined his shelves with porcelain and has a portrait of some white lady in Japanese costume as a centerpiece it's called an 'oriental room' but when I line my shelves with anime girl statuettes its called 'cringe' and 'consumerist' :'(
This is art Nuevo youtubism by malicious compliance.
I feel like the difference between Gaudi and other instances of art nouveau architecture, is that it feels like he passed over the line from "we are adding interesting aesthetic elements to this functional architecture" to "we have made this giant sculpture and hidden an apartment building behind it "
I love art nouveau, hopefully one day it makes a comeback
What if Groverhaus but art nouveau?
The visual sameness of Parisian buildings is mitigated by the fact that the shops and restaurants all look different at street level. As opposed to many modern buildings, which look the same at street level (e.g. tinted plate glass windows that you can't see through to see if the restaurant's open) but often look weird as heck on the skyline.
That Peacock Room makes me want to raise my fist and affirm that Adolf Loos was right all along (except for the part about being a nonce)
22:22 My boy really got hit by a fey mood straight out of Dwarf Fortress.
Do NOT look up how the Grand Bazar in Brussels looks today.
"When I was a child visiting Saint Petersburg" I love how posh Alice is.
please, another bump to adding episodes to the RSS feed, not to dis your power-point skillz—but, I’ve been hooked on pure audio and have no intention of streaming your content from googly web-stalker attention market making creepy capitalistic fucks—are you planning an alternative?
I’ll do that this weekend
Liam please put the last few bonus eps in the audio rss feed thx
I thought I was the only one who remembered Old Engine Oil.
Used to buy that in a petrol station shop just outside Glasgow that had a mad selection of beers
does this include Club Nouveau?
Art Nouveau is the best art, art deco is the best at transportation.
Y’all make life tolerable. Thanks for the edutainments
Oh god this is three hours long
art nuvuwu :3
Charles Rennie McIntosh did nothing wrong!!
I remember seeing St Pancras all boarded up for years and now that it's finally fixed up, I will never get to stay there. 4:30 in this and I'm already feeling pain.

This is going to be harder to listen to than some disaster pods because so much of this stuff is also gone and will never come back. At least no one destroys Lalique jewelry because someone wants a curtain wall high-rise.
Saint Pancreas
This is Well There's Your Problem. A podcast with THIRTY-NINE SLIDES?!?!
Art 2: Art Harder
waiting for the Unity Temple shoutout in the vienna secession sessection

Buddy, the last "room" wasn't the Peacock Room, it was the goddamn Tiki Room at Disneyland.
art nouveau my beloved
Just saved me from my bullshit 4 hour shift. Praise be the gods of the chaos universe. Aka this podcast.
For the record, Alice: you splurging on a nice hotel and not giving me bonus episodes is exactly why I subscribe. Just enjoy it. You won.
"Art nouveau" est facile à épeler
Is it even art if it hasn't been around long enough for the British Empire to have stolen it
"The Way of the Samurai is found in death. Meditation on inevitable death should be performed daily. Every day when one's body and mind are at peace, one should meditate upon being ripped apart by arrows, rifles, spears, and swords. Being carried away by surging waves. Being thrown into the midst of a great fire. Being struck by lightning, being shaken to death by a great earthquake. Falling from thousand-foot cliffs, dying of disease, or committing seppuku at the death of one's master. **And every day, without fail, one should consider himself as dead.** This is the substance of the Way of the Samurai."
Hi, where do I get my college credits? This slots nicely into my degree program.
nice
literally resubbed to hear this one. art nouveau's revival without anyone discussing its colonial or imperial ethos (or even alphonse mucha's work in slavic national movements or the usage of art nouveau within the development of zionism!!) has made me the fucking joker. please podcast grind this axe for me
Ah an episode? On my birthday? Well don’t you guys know just what to get me.
Ok excited for this one but like... when is the podcast feed getting updated? 😛
When I think "arty room" I think of Charles Rennie McIntosh.
I can spell it and you can’t prove I can’t.
The "They turned it into a mosque"-Hoax is also happening every few years with Karlskirche in Vienna. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiener_Karlskirche#/media/Datei:Karlskirche_Abendsonne_1.jpg
Art Nouveau isn't the first time people called their art "new". The "Ars nova" was a specific kind of new music that flourished in France in the 14th century. The music of the composer Guillaume de Machaut being it's most famous example.
TWO HOURS FIFTY TWO MINUTES AND FIFTY ONE SECONDS OF ART NOUVEAU HELL YES
These podcasters were forged in the trenches of the Penn Central trilogy, they have transcended exhaustion.
