Arts
In this episode we explore the life of Gertrude Stein (1874 - 1946) who was a queer writer and art collector as well as the leader of one of the most influential Parisian art salons of the early 1900. In her home she entertained the likes of Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemmingway and Ezra Pound, becoming a key voice in the radical art world of that time. As a writer she was experimental and often wrote illuminating and personal stories about her life, love between women and insight into the lives of the artists she knew. We will cover not only Gertrude's work and impact but also her relationship with her life partner Alice B Toklas.
