Spill The Art Tea 🎨🍵 ft. Tess Martin 🗣️ ET for Sale, Museum Time Limits & Free Art Access?

Welcome to Episode 41 of Spill the Art Tea – your weekly dose of unfiltered art world commentary.
 
🎙️ This week, we’re joined by the brilliant Tess Martin, an internationally celebrated animator known for her hand-crafted and experimental storytelling. Tess spills all on her creative process, the fluidity of working across borders, and why animation deserves a permanent seat at the high-art table.
 
📰 The week’s hottest art stories, including:
 
✨ E.T. phones Sotheby’s – Spielberg’s iconic animatronic alien is going under the hammer for millions. Is pop culture officially museum-worthy?
 
⏳ Rome limits your art time – The Galleria Borghese now gives you just 60 minutes to soak up centuries of art. Is this smart preservation or tourist tyranny?
 
🏛️ Should museums in the US be free? – With some institutions spending over $60 per visitor, new data fuels the debate on making art accessible for all.
 
🎨 Flannery O’Connor’s hidden art – The famed author turns out to have been a closet painter too. We love a multidisciplinary queen!
 
🎪 Art market or circus act? – One wine critic draws hilarious (and maybe accurate?) parallels between auction houses and big-top drama.
