The Whispering Gallery

In this heartfelt Giving Tuesday bonus episode of the Whispering Gallery podcast, meet Copper, Bonzai, and Frankie — three dachshunds who faced paralysis, pain, and uncertainty, and the people who lifted them back up. These stories are real, raw, full of hope--and about dogs at Rocky Mountain Dachshund Rescue. www.rmdr.org I wanted to share more about the dogs at the rescue than I usually share in regular WGP episodes.

In Part 2 of The Night Watch Mystery, we step deeper into the shadows of Rembrandt’s masterpiece. This chapter traces the strange and violent history of the painting’s attacks, explores the accusations that swirled around the militia it depicts, and considers what these stories reveal about Amsterdam in the 1600s. Alongside the canvas, we follow Rembrandt himself—his battles with loss, financial ruin, and the weight of -possible- depression. We also look at the theory that an eye condition may have shaped the way he saw the world, and the way he painted it.

Step into the shadows of Rembrandt’s most famous painting. Was The Night Watch always this dark, or is something hidden beneath the varnish? In this first episode, we begin unraveling a centuries-old art mystery that’s more than meets the eye.

Part 2 about the Mothman legend and subsequent art. Stories about the area the legend grew up in, Point Pleasant, West Virgina. Learn about artists Frank Frazetta and Bob Roach and their iconic mothman pieces. Mothman has been identified by some as a portent to the tragic collapse of the Silver Bridge in Point Pleasant, WV.

Join me for the nickel tour of Phenomecon 2024 as only the Whispering Gallery can bring it. With a velvety “blended” of spiced chai latte* and the Phenomecon mantra “we believe” which is a tad more than I’m personally comfortable with. I don’t “believe” carte blanche and personally I would have been more comfortable with “the jury is still out…” and yet the green glowy website had beckoned and there I was.  This episode is a short overview of the Phenomecon conference as organized by Google Notebook LM from the full episode recording, and notes. Read by their AI hosts. There will be more about the conference and speakers in the full episode. www.whisperinggallerypodcast.com https://www.facebook.com/whisperinggallerystories/ *Spoofs coffee in Vernal, Utah

This episode offers an introduction to our next spooky art pieces about a cryptid that hails from West Virginia, has been deemed a portent who was seen between 1966 and 1967, ending after the tragic collapse of the Silver Bridge.  Episode Image Source: frazettamuseum.com Frazetta Gallery Store, Frank Frazetta, 1980, Art Print No. 118 - Mothman, painting, accessed 29, August, 2024 <https://www.frazettamuseum.com/collections/prints/products/art-print-no-118-mothman>

Whispering Gallery Podcast WGP: Clue of the Crumbling Cake Paintings A still life is a category of artwork that dates back to the 1600’s. A collection of things brought together (inanimate) gathered often on a table for the artist to work from and reference. The artist can work with this grouping of items, coming back over one or more sessions to complete the drawing or painting. Nothing in the grouping changes from session to session. The place for the artist’s chair can even be marked with masking tape to make sure they end up in the correct spot to work from. “Still life’s” for 16th and 17th century Dutch may be made up of food like fruit; grapes, flowers (like on the secret of the missing tulip episode), cheese, bread, yas—cake, wine goblets, reflective surfaces of serving dishes. One example, artist, Clara Peters, took things to a level that might surprise you Daily Art Magazine shares, quote: “…probably she is most famous for enriching her still lifes with her hidden self-portrait reflected in the objects on the table. In the image above, Still Life with Flowers, a Silver-gilt Goblet, Dried Fruit, Sweetmeats, Breadsticks, Wine and a Pewter Pitcher, the artist painted her portrait three times in the goblet and four times on the pewter jug… Aside from having a role as a signature, painting reflections were a challenge to artists to show off their mastery… She also had a particular way of signing her work, often hidden. Six out of her 39 known paintings include the same ornate silver knife that is inscribed with her name, Clara Peeters.” Unquote dailyartmagazine.com/dutch-still-life-6-famous-painters/  Looking for strange and unexpected “Easter eggs” like these may seem a little too tedious, -or- maybe they make you a bit curious—you’d be right on both accounts. (Pause) I mean why -do- people end up standing there in museums, studying paintings, drawings, and sculpture? This could be one reason. Is a goblet half full or half empty… what were they going for? Life used up or life to be enjoyed? Or something else? Like maybe the artist got thirsty and just drank some of it. Besides looking at all of the details, from the mastery of a painting— of beautiful, intricate lace on the cuff of a sleeve, the ombré fading and veins in flower petals, or impressionist brushstrokes up close.  There may be mystery built into the composition—maybe not as difficult to unravel as an Agatha Christie novel, but, then again? Maybe there are “icons” representing meaning, visual bookmarks that are part of the story. Like a skull or a blown out candle— representing death. To the art world this last bit acts as the reminders  “memento mori” directly translated from Latin: remember death. Thanks for listening!

Come with me my friends into the strange “inner world” of—one of the unreal hollow earth drawings. I decided I needed to narrow down to one drawing for our story. Captain John Cleves’s Symmes jr, (captain of the U.S. Army, starting as an Ensign in 1802, and honorably discharged 13 years later in 1815 as a captain). After that he tried working as a trader, but that didn’t work out so he embraced his theory of the Hollow Earth. In fact he did more than give his theory a big hug.  In 1818, Captain Symmes made a declaration (of the conclusion of his hypothesis)—before gathering and analyzing the data. In his conclusion (minus the data), he pledged his belief on his very life… but, he had the scientific process out of order. And the zeal he had for his idea wasn’t coming from science... The drawing of the Symmes concentric spheres theory, shows a jawbreaker-like layer upon layer, imagined-view, of the inside of the earth—illustrating Symmes’ ideas of what the internal “levels” of the earth could have looked like. The drawing of the Symmes hole was done in pen and ink with the “hole” cutting through the arctic circle. Eight countries cross into the Arctic circle, but the drawing showed the earth cored like a baked apple; minus the filling. He was betting there was an enormous hole that went right through the earth, pole to pole, and the drawing showed the imagined layers inside.  I was feeling sure of my research and --no holes– then wha?!? An article from the  Smithsonian magazine explained in  “A Mysteriously Massive Hole in Antarctic Ice Has Returned” article there are these things, these holes, called polynyas. You’re kidding me, right? Quote “hole the size of Maine has opened in the wintertime sea ice surrounding Antarctica. Though these holes, called polynyas, are not uncommon around Earth's southernmost continent, one hasn't been spotted in this location since the 1970's, reports Heather Brady of National Geographic.”1. If I'm not mistaken, one of the causes of these massive ice holes is an upwelling of warm water caused by the likes of a cyclone—baby hurricane’s.  The polynyas are not a Symmes hole...

Welcome to the Whispering Gallery podcast! I’m Suzanne Nikolaisen and if this isn’t your first rodeo - er, time listening, you know that together we seek out the spooky, unusual and fascinating stories from the art world—to understand the art and the related “unknown” a little better, and boy—howdy, did I find another “strange” doozy of a pseudoscience story for you today! Im all researched out and can give you the downlow on unreal hollow earth drawings! Have you heard about the Hollow Earth theory? It may have been a conspiracy theory you easily dismissed, but there are some drawings of what the space was imagined to look like, not to mention hollow-earthers (is that a demographic?) both credible and -incredible- people who are part of the story including Leonhard Eeuler, Swiss Mathematician, Cyrus Reed Teed, American physician who ended up thinking he was the messiah. Edmud Haley (as in Haley’s comet) and hero Admiral Byrd and his not so secret diary and–shang-ri-la like story. It’s out there. And in America there was John Cleves Symmes. The illustrations themselves are in pen and ink diagramming the hollow earth as early infographics that are a bit scary, as only a fantastical, conspiracy theory-ish, geography-meets-sci-fi stories (about a crazy big hole at the North Pole, and the South Pole leading to the center of the earth) can be. You just can’t make this stuff up. Oh wait—they did. Imaginations galore! And Science doesn’t care what you believe or draw, it doesn’t make it real. It’s not a new idea. The hollow earth theory is kind of like the retro toy, the easy bake oven. comes complete with easy access points at the poles called "Symmes Holes" that lead down into the inside world of the hollow earth, with it’s own sun or illumination. Details differing depending on the person. The occasional theorist even dipping a finger into the metaphorical cake batter with other strange phenomena like UFOs (or UAP’s), simply put the details of an imagined world. In the end out of the oven comes instead of the perfect tiny cakes we love, empty pans, thin air. From GEEK'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY CULTURE 12.11.20 11:44 AM on Wired.com’s article The Hollow Earth Theory Isn’t So Funny Anymore - which shares more about Owen Egerton and his book “Hollow” one of npr’s books of the year in 2017.   "While he was writing the book, Egerton viewed the Hollow Earth Theory as a bit of harmless fun, but recent events have made him reconsider that view. “When I was writing about the Hollow Earth, I was celebrating people’s ability to believe what was obviously not true,” he says. “But as the book came to be, and as Donald Trump was elected, I found more and more that those conspiracy theories weren’t so cute, that that power could move in a bunch of different ways—and a dangerous way."

On the island of Britain, between the Atlantic ocean and the North Sea, lies a haunted castle. Okay, yes—technically there are probably a bunch of haunted castles on -this- island. We’re looking for Alnwick Castle in Northumberland in northern UK, in particular. Alnwick castle (parts of which were founded in 1096) has a peculiar bamboo labyrinth in “Alnwick Gardens” that was created from 500 live, evergreen and yet perennial bamboo grasses. Bamboo is part of the grass family Poaceae. The jumbo sized grassy bamboo reaches up and over the paved pathways creating a natural arch and tunnel-like walkway. The shaded corridors wander, and upcoming tunnels await your visit in shadow. Google images of the labyrinth at Alnwick castle do indeed confirm the dark corridors. But the labyrinth is not the darkest part of the Alnwick Gardens—And I’m being, -deadly- serious... Once upon a time, when lace up roller skates, feathered hair, and bubble gum were hip, there were two guys that didn’t see eye to eye. Stephen, a university educated storyteller and author. And Stanley who never darkened the door of film school, telling stories from books and making popular acclaimed movies—his way, with generous creative changes, one of which you may recognize,  The book “The Shining” by Stephen King was published in January of 1977–and please note: this is your spoiler alert at least in regards to the Shining labyrinth...

What would the ruins of the Palace of Knossos (nah-sohs) look like in the moonlight? An uneven grid of boxlike rooms, interrupted by darker larger forms like a midnight quilt unfolding into the night. A cascade of history—fading into silhouette, shadow and—interpretation. The Palace of Knossos (nah-sohs) was built on the largest island in Greece: Crete. The island has mountains and gorges, and appears to be a bit of a desert but the water surrounding the island is brilliant phthalo and cerulean blue. What about the ghosts in the depths of the legendary labyrinth, in the deep dark, below the palace?—The place where Theseus and the Minotaur had their showdown? Where does myth end reality meet? Was there really a labyrinth?  https://www.facebook.com/whisperinggallerystories Photo Source: Creative Commons License https://art.thewalters.org/detail/2191/theseus-and-the-minotaur-2/  Theseus and the Minotaur, sculpture (terracotta), by Arnold Seligmann, French, 18th century 

The last episode was all about the Franklin expedition and it had me slinging facts and quotes left and right and because there were so many interesting things related, with some more removed than others to the cursed painting. When editing the audio I had to edit out a couple of times when I had run out of breath! There was simply a lot to cover and we were just skating along the surface. Whew! We left off with two abandoned ships, no survivors and the terrible story that the officers and crew of the ships had perished in the hostile environment of the polar desert —some were never accounted for.  Grim, sad, and a beyond-difficult story, but that leaves us at a turning point in our  story. The expedition left England in 1845 add to that the search and rescue starting in 1847 and ending 40 expeditions later in 1859. The search for the Franklin expedition ended 14 years after they departed.  That’s holding out some serious hope, but was it? there was still the lure of finding the Northwest Passage. And going on these rescue mission came with the chance to discover the Northwest Passage. Five years after the rescuers stopped looking—it was 1864 we arrive at the painting Man Proposes, God Disposes by Edwin Landseer who was living in Victorian England. So what is with that painting title?

We’re explorers of art mysteries, unusual legends and today the story of an Arctic expedition gone terribly awry This is quite the terrifying story on it’s own and it has been turned into an AMC supernatural anthology you might have seen. ships trapped in arctic ice, lead poisoning, abandoned ships and some indications cannibalism— just a hot mess well frozen mess I mean! And then, there’s the painting… Art for this episode is from Creative Commons, Man Proposes, God disposes by Edwin Landseer https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Manproposesgoddisposes.jpg

Let’s wipe away the dusty cobwebs at the edges of our memories. Did you ever take a pencil or crayon and take a rubbing of an image? When you make a rubbing, it’s like magic seeing the reproduction of the surface appear, although you rub the crayon across the surface to get the desired reproduction. Maybe it was an embossed book or a sampler of autumn leaves showing their shapes and textures? Or maybe you know someone or have done this yourself, taken a rubbing from a place you’ve visited whether for the art, a memoir–or for the information. So far, so not spooky you say? Let’s just remember to keep your flashlights close as we head into the Whispering Gallery AND the cemetery! Join me to discover a handful of headstones worthy of a photo, a rubbing and yes, even a recipe card.

Sugar skulls are considered folk art and said to have come from Southern Mexico—they are part of the celebration for Día de los Muertos in English: Day of the Dead. This is not the celebration of Halloween—in Mexico.  The “day” of the dead is actually two days of remembering loved ones who have passed away and welcoming their spirits home. I feel like they’ve got this holiday down way better than I’ve ever celebrated Memorial Day! Color, sugar skulls, spirits, paper flowers, candles, good food and marigolds. It seems like a celebration of inclusivity bringing the living and the dead together.

So who did Circe turn into pigs? What specialty of magic could have done that? Did she really live alone on an island? Find out next on the Whispering Gallery! In the northern hemisphere the days are growing shorter, and the air, crisp as the snap of a Halloween apple, makes our cheeks ruddy—join me to finish our two parter about two hauntingly special, and magical women. Well more than one if we’re talking about the Oracle of Delphi–and the myths and stories surrounding Circe have identified her as a witch, an enchantress and even as a goddess. There is a mountain of artwork about Circe from on the sides of pots/vases to oil paintings and yes the pre raphaelites took a stab at painting her. Her story has called to artists throughout history to be illustrated and you’ll see some of these pieces on instagram and others on Facebook on the Whispering Gallery.  Look for artwork about Circe on the Whispering Gallery podcasts Facebook and Instagram pages!
