🎨 Art Virgins: From Clueless to Collectors 🎨

Ever walked into a museum and felt totally lost? Or thought art collecting was only for millionaires? We get it—because that was us. Two friends, complete beginners, decided to start collecting art with zero knowledge (unless you count knowing that Da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa).

Each week on Art Virgins, we share our step-by-step journey into the art world—learning, laughing, and exploring over coffee. Together, we’ll uncover how to actually enjoy art, understand different movements, and build a collection no matter your budget.

We explore the questions every beginner has but is too shy to ask, like:

  • How do you enjoy a museum without feeling overwhelmed?
  • Do you need to be rich to start an art collection?
  • How does context change the way we experience a piece of art?
  • How do artists redefine movements—and how does personal style and courage shape an artist’s legacy?
  • What’s the difference between surrealism, pop art, abstract art, and contemporary art?
  • Can street art be both business and authentic expression?
  • How do you prepare for an exhibition so you actually enjoy it?

Along the way we share beginner-friendly breakdowns of movements, stories of famous and contemporary artists, visits to exhibitions, museums, and street art shows, plus tips on how to start your own collection—no matter your budget.

Art Virgins is for you if you’ve ever felt:

  • Intimidated by galleries and art jargon.
  • Curious about art but unsure where to start.
  • Overwhelmed by centuries of art history.
  • Like you don’t “belong” in museums.
  • Or simply eager to impress your friends, partner, or colleagues with real art knowledge.

Whether you want to enjoy museums without feeling lost, start an affordable collection, or simply sound smart about art at dinner parties—Art Virgins will take you there.

    Episode 13 – Preparing for Klimt in Vienna, Discovering Reina Sofía in Madrid
    2025/12/18
    To make the most out of your listening experience, follow along with the episode’s Wingman post on our Instagram: @artvirgins. Show Notes: In the final episode of 2025, Sami and Zahra close the year by sharing two very different — but deeply connected — art journeys. Zahra prepares for a Christmas trip to Vienna, following a trail that leads straight to Gustav Klimt, his contradictions, and the questions that make his work endlessly fascinating. From famous masterpieces to lesser-known tensions beneath the gold, she unpacks why Klimt is never just one thing. Meanwhile, Sami takes us to Madrid and into the Reina Sofía Museum, where a carefully prepared visit turns into a series of surprising realizations — about Cubism, repetition, posters, text in art, and why some museums suddenly click. Along the way, a simple game transforms a museum visit into something unexpectedly joyful. A reflective, curiosity-filled episode to wrap up the year — about learning to see, preparing to look, and letting art slowly reveal itself. Highlights: Preparing for Vienna through the lens of Gustav Klimt Why Klimt can be both iconic and misunderstood The idea of artistic contradiction — fame, feminism, modernity How preparation can completely change a museum experience A first encounter with Reina Sofía and its “anchor” artwork Discovering personal taste through posters, text, and typography Cubism explained through repetition, cafés, and everyday objects Why art movements might be closer to scientific experiments than pure chaos What we promised: Gustav Klimt and The Kiss Museo Reina Sofía (Madrid) Cubism: guitars, newspapers, pipes, wine bottles Cassandre’s Normandie poster ChatGPT Prompt for preparing for a museum visit to Copy/Paste: "MUSEUM VISIT PREPARATION PROMPT I'm planning to visit [MUSEUM NAME] in [CITY] on [DATE/TIME if known].

    Episode 12 — Art, Science & A Missing Da Vinci
    2025/12/09

    To make the most out of your listening experience, follow along with the episode’s Wingman post on our Instagram: @artvirgins.

    Show Notes:

    In this very special episode, Sami and Zahra record for the first time ever with a live audience — and the energy is as chaotic, wholesome, and hilarious as you’d imagine. From CERN to stolen masterpieces, from Da Vinci’s mind-blowing inventions to unexpected guest appearances, this episode is a full cross-disciplinary adventure.

    And just when you think you know where the story is going… a brand-new guest steps in with a mystery involving a missing artwork and a very famous Renaissance master.

    Get ready — this one is a ride.

    Highlights:

    • Zahra shares the surprising link between physics, engineering, and some of the most iconic artworks ever created.

    • Why CERN might secretly be one of the most artistic places on Earth.

    • Sami tells the story of a painting that resurfaced 80 years later out of nowhere and in the weirdest way possible .

    • A stolen-art mystery delivered by a surprise guest — featuring Da Vinci, the Medici… and a piece that may still be hidden somewhere today.

    • A lollipop cameo (yes, really).

  • Episode 15 – Science & Art Deco

    Episode 15 – Science & Art Deco
    2025/12/03

    To make the most out of your listening experience, follow along with the episode’s Wingman post on our Instagram: @artvirgins.

    Show Notes:

    In this episode, Zahra takes us on an unexpected journey to what she calls the happiest place on earth — and spoiler: it’s nowhere near Disneyland. From particle accelerators to mind-bending artist residencies, she opens a door into a world where science and creativity collide in the most surprising ways.

    Then Sami shifts gears and brings us back to the streets of Paris for the 100-year anniversary of a movement we all think we know… until we realize we don’t. Dramatic entrances, glamorous lines, and a story that all begins with one very peculiar exhibition.

    Are you ready to see physics and design with completely new eyes? Let’s dive in.

    Highlights:

    • Zahra reveals the unexpected reason CERN might actually be the real happiest place on earth

    • A behind-the-scenes look at Arts at CERN — the artist residency program nobody sees coming

    • The strange, futuristic artworks hiding in plain sight on CERN’s campus

    • How physics secretly shapes everything from your steps to your favorite masterpieces

    • Sami unpacks the (surprisingly messy) origin story of Art Deco

    • Why 1925 Paris hosted one of the most influential exhibitions of the century

    • The visual codes that define Art Deco — from speed lines to ships, subways, and sleek geometry

    • A poster so iconic it becomes the symbol of early Art Deco glamour

    What we promised:

    • The Arts at CERN program

    • The giant CERN statue with formulas

    • Black Quantum Futurism

    • A.M. Cassandre’s Normandie ocean liner poster

    • The 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industrielles Modernes
