    ART Matters was on our buttons and T-shirts for patrons of the AGO (ART gallery of Ontario) in Toronto. One day someone grabbed about 50 of them at once! I asked for the reason and they told me that they were having a birthday party for a friend named ART!!!

    1:00:50 This is a great take away and certainly feels true. Life is more like a spiral (Corkscrew) than a circle; yes things repeat, but not quite in the same way. And when you do experience things repeatedly, the hope is that you experience them with a slightly elevated sense of wisdom.

    I’m an artist and an athlete. Run hut run sounds interesting!! I really appreciate this conversation because as an artist, art matters so much to me but I’m so happy it matters to others also. I love how you love art! I love the prayer from your book! We need each other! Thank you so much for sharing about suicide and suicide loss. I lost my son to suicide. Art and nature has been so healing.

    Thank you for this conversation! A big fan of RRP without being an ultra athlete, I feel like this topic of art was just for me (and all the other artists out there!) Never heard of Heidi Zuckerman before this and now she’s my hero and inspiration!!!🙏😎✌️

    I love this, I've always been a fan of art, regular gallery / expo visitor but very uneducated. I've recently moved from Sydney to a small outback town in Australia and started volunteering for an arts charity with very similar values and perspectives to Heidi. I'm onto her podcast now. Thank you for introducing me to yet another awesome guest. I've lost count how many I found here and follow directly 👌

    A very empowering and interesting talk. More like this please. As Heidi said: art is a practice and we know that many athletes are learning to improve their performance by spiritual practices. It could bei so much fun to see how artistic practices interact with that.

    Thank you for this episode. I found RR through my vegan journey a few years ago, and I am also an artist and art educator. Needless to say, this episode was especially enjoyable for me. I agree wholeheartedly with Heidi’s perspective on the value of art; and loved listening about all that she has done for the art world; however, I was a little taken aback by her quick judgement of the art teacher in Houston. I’m feeling the need to support him or her here. I’ve taught art for two decades in museums, galleries, my own studio, and public education. My experience in public ed is everywhere from title 1 schools to the extremely affluent. So, back to the Houston art class. What was seen by Heidi was a very small glimpse of a much larger problem with the state of art education in our country. I was not there, but I can guess that this Art teacher had a large group of children, probably not enough help, and a very limited timeframe to get those children through the museum. I’m more than certain that she or he would have loved nothing more than to linger and look, reflect and discuss, but with a smaller group and more help! I’d also like to say that as art educators, we want nothing more than creative freedom with our students and certainly do not want to teach scripted lessons over and over each year. I had to laugh when Heidi mentioned her kids bringing home the same projects each year. She must know that it wasn’t the art teacher’s choice to do that. I now teach in a place where I am given a great amount of autonomy within the program, but I still get questions from parents as to why little sister didn’t get to do that really cute project that older brother got to do.
    I suppose my point is that if we want art to be taught more creatively, we need more funding, more trust from parents and administrators that we, as educated art instructors know what we are doing, and more volunteer help from the community… people just like Heidi. 😊

      @zerinhaque4127.....I agree: two hours of "you know" (woman) and lots of "like" (man).... mostly boring conjecture with a few thoughtful insights. "Cultural consciousness"? Hmmm......definitely not working class!

    A bold statement about what art 🖼️ is . I do not agree in a way because there is a difference between a real concept and just saying is art ( where is the consistency?)we are all creative but not all artists

    This is a lot of bromance for the first 36 minutes (on video, it's about 45 minutes on audio). Rather long for Rich Roll who usually generates biographical awareness 20-30 minutes. Skip to that 36mins to hear more of the real subject matter, "why art is..."

    This definition of art has issues, it does not really define what art is. She says that anyone who calls it art it is art and it is about intention, then she says that AI art is not art although people who do AI art say it is art with intention to do art.

    I have watched your podcast for years. This is the worst interview you have ever had, This women speaks in circles and with attorney language that is the what the common person will not understand. I would invite you to re listen to this interview and how she circumvents every question with highly educated word salad. Horrible. Horrible. PS: I am from Southern California and I am well aware of the different exhibits, she just lucked out to end up where she is. I would if I had a vote never have placed her there, she had no sense of different cultures and is completely whit privilege. She did not grow up as I did.
