About Ask An Artist
The ‘Jackson’s Art Podcast’ brings together ‘Ask An Artist’ and more ideas and conversations from across the Jackson’s Team. The Podcast explores what it means to make art through the voices of established artists and the materials they use. Every month, we share stories and expertise from those who create, be they contemporary artists or historical figures. To encourage curiosity and invite dialogue, we take listeners out of the gallery and into the spaces where art is made, shaped, and brought to life. Our podcast consists of three distinct series: ‘Ask an Artist’, ‘The Matter of Colour’, and ‘Rivalries and Friendships in Art History’. In ‘Ask an Artist’, Lisa Takahashi hosts insightful conversations with guest artists in their studios and at exhibitions and events, capturing both their practice and the atmosphere around their work. ‘The Matter of Colour’, presented by Evie Hatch, co-creator of Jackson’s Pigment Stories Book and online series, explores the fascinating histories of artists’ colours from antiquity to the present day. In ‘Rivalries and Friendships in Art History’, Louise Reynolds and Evie Hatch uncover the clashes, romances, and companionships that shaped artists’ lives, revealing the human stories behind art history.

Rivalries and Friendships in Art History - Labille-Guiard and Vigée Le Brun
Published 28 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Archie was petitioning for a long time to accept an unlimited amount of women artists. That changed art history. As soon as you can have more than four limited, suddenly the gates are open and we can have so many more women practicing. And that was her. That was La Bigillard. Not to use another modern term, but she wasn't a gatekeeper. She wasn't a gatekeeper. Yeah, she definitely. She was open the gates for people, which is, yeah, it's really beautiful. Yeah. I think there would have been, like knowing that, it sounds like there would have been an amount of admiration between the two of them, at least from La Bigillard's perspective. […]
