Whispering Gallery Podcast | Sources & References
Show Notes
Works Cited, Bibliography-ish
Est. 2019 — The Whispering Gallery podcast is narrated by Suzanne Nikolaisen*–there are a lot of artists, sources (like museums) and audio (music and sound effect) creators who deserve credit! While this is nowhere as comprehensive as a catalogue raisonné these are most of the books and online resources I used when researching the episodes.
Aside from the Whispering Gallery, I’m not a curator or docent, I’m a trained illustrator and designer. I’m doing my best to share these fascinating stories with you! Both the index and visual – Exhibition Catalogue make up the Whispering Gallery’s Catalogue Raisonné.
*The Whispering Gallery podcast is created, produced and published by Suzanne Nikolaisen. Seasons 1 and 2 were researched and co-hosted by Emily Nikolaisen-Quayle. Copyright details in footer.
