Art & Myth in Gauguin


I've included a link to an NPR segment run on March 15 about a current show of Gauguin's Tahitian artworks at the National Gallery and the controversies/ideas surrounding the artist and his relations to the subject matter. Within the link is the broadcast version of the story well worth the 7 minutes it takes to listen.
