24. STRACHOWSKI // KASPEROWICZ: Czym naprawdę zajmuje się historia sztuki?

We all (or almost all) enjoy talking about art, its paths and its detours. We are curious about the secrets of artists' lives and the vicissitudes of their works. But who are those who have professionally dedicated themselves to telling the story of art and its history? Has this always been the domain of historians? When and why was art history born? What ideas guided its creation? How did critics write about art, how did art historians write about it, and what do they owe to each other? How did the "equal rights" of applied arts influence art history? And finally, was art history more of a "history of the spirit" or a "history of the body" for 19th-century people? Michał Strachowski sought answers to all these questions in a conversation with Professor Ryszard Kasperowicz from the University of Warsaw. The podcast premieres on May 27, 2026, at 8:00 PM!
