ARTIDOTE

Ruth Millington’s wonderful book uncovers the hidden figures behind art history’s masterpieces. We tend to forget that each great artist, whether from the past or present, has their own unique muse who inspires them, gives them energy and influences their creativity.

For Picasso it was Dora Maar; for Rodin it was Camille Claudel; for Frida Kahlo it was her illness. Those muses had a significant impact on the artists we love, but they often get hidden behind the shadows of giants whom they inspired.

In this interview, Ruth and I talked about Muses who inspired artists such as Frida Kahlo, Pablo Picasso, Lucian Freud, Tim Walker, and many others.

Ruth spent years researching the relationship between artists and their Muses. I asked her to give us some tips about how you and I can mimic great artists so we can connect with our own Muses too.
