Death of an Artist: Ana Mendieta and Carl Andre Split the Art World

BONUS EPISODE of 'All About Art': Preview of Death of an Artist: Ana Mendieta and Carl Andre Split the Art World

Here’s a preview from a new podcast, Death of the Artist, that explores a tragedy in the art world. For more than 35 years, accusations of murder shrouded one of the art world’s most storied couples: Was the famous sculptor Carl Andre involved in the death of his up-and-coming artist wife Ana Mendieta? Host Helen Molesworth revisits Mendieta’s death, taking a closer look at how she might have fallen out of the window of Carl’s 34th floor New York apartment, and the following trial which has divided the art world since 1985.
