Hey friends, I have a show that I'd like to share with you today. It is right up my personal

alley, so much so that I made a similarly themed season of Art

Curious a few years back. So today it is my pleasure to introduce you to The Art of Crime.

The Art of Crime is a history podcast about the unlikely collisions between true crime and the

arts, and it's a show that's created, written, and narrated by Gavin Whitehead.

Gavin notes that he has had an interest in all things criminal and artistic for as long as he

can remember, and this podcast is the perfect intersection of those two fascinations.

The show is now in its second season, and it is all about several artists who have committed,

attempted, or at least have been

implicated in an assassination.

Today's episode is all about the painter David Alfaro Sikyeros, who was a diehard communist,

and Sikyeros fought in the Mexican Revolution in the mid-1910s.

Over the next several decades, he would revolutionize the theory and practice

of muralism in Mexico and broad, largely inspired by his radical politics. In 1940, his political

convictions led to a less honorable enterprise when he spearheaded an assault on the home of

Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky as he and his family

slept in their beds. Enjoy, and I will be back to you next week with an all-new episode of Art Curious. David Alfaro Sikayiros raised his 45-caliber revolver in the air and fired a warning shot.
