Robert Shaw is an acclaimed art historian and author who has written for the Sunday Times, The Guardian, and Metro. Known for his expert insights into art’s evolving landscape, he brings clarity to complex topics like AI ethics, art market dynamics, and the legacy of iconic figures like Andy Warhol.

He explains:

◽️ The deadly trap of chasing novelty and scandal—why true art resonates beyond shock value.

◽️ How to ethically engage with AI art while maintaining the human connection in creativity.

◽️ The biggest lie about originality—art is often a borrowed, collaborative, and evolving conversation.

◽️ The harsh truth about art ownership in the digital age and the importance of scarcity.

◽️ The habit of sabotaging emerging artists—overcomplicating language instead of communicating clearly.

◽️ The rule that changed his life: creating work that connects emotionally rather than just intellectually.

◽️ How Andy Warhol’s prolific production challenged traditional art values and fame’s double edge.

◽️ Why accessible storytelling in art history, like graphic novels, can revolutionise how we understand art.

If you want to demystify the art world, understand the future of creativity, and explore the fascinating complexities behind fame and originality, this episode is a must-listen!
