In this episode, we delve into the intriguing world of grotesque art, tracing its origins from the Roman grottoes to its profound impact on modern aesthetics. We explore how what began as whimsical, colorful decorations evolved into a broader artistic expression that encompasses the bizarre, the surreal, and the deeply unsettling. Through discussions on key works like Goya's "Black Paintings," and Michelangelos Sistine Chapel we examine how grotesque art challenges our perceptions and provokes a visceral emotional response.
