Immaterial
5,000 years of art, one material at a time
About

From The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Immaterial is a podcast that examines the materials of art and what they can reveal about history and humanity. Each episode looks at a single material, exploring the qualities and meanings that are often overlooked.
