I’m so excited to bring you the next episode of The Last Bohemians LA! In a series first, we speak to three generations of an incredible American artistic dynasty up in the leafy hills of Laurel Canyon: Alison Saar, her daughter Maddy Leeser and her mother, 96-year-old Betye Saar, whose 1960s and 70s work was so revolutionary that Angela Davis credited it with launching the Black women’s movement.
Join us around the garden table as the three women discuss motherhood and creativity, making art out of the everyday, being a mixed race family and the importance of exploring their African-American heritage, magic and mysticism, and the life and career advice that has been passed down from generation to generation.
It was such a privilege to join them one afternoon. I really hope you love this one.
