A proposito di questo titolo

Art Worker is a podcast about our relationship to art and artists under capitalism. Host Abi Miller combs through contemporary art history for stories of unity between the working class and artists, examples of meaningful public arts funding, and the many ways the ultra-wealthy try to ruin art for the rest of us. Season 1 of Art Worker is about three artist collectives that received meaningful public support in Atlanta, GA in the 1970s.
