For the fourteenth episode of "Reading the Art World," host Megan Fox Kelly speaks with Jerry Saltz, author of “Art Is Life: Icons and Iconoclasts, Visionaries and Vigilantes, and Flashes of Hope in the Night," published November 1, 2022 by Riverhead Books, an imprint of Penguin Random House.

Pulitzer Prize winning art critic, "New York Times" best selling author and self-described "failed" artist with over 1 million followers on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter, Jerry Saltz has been the voice of the art world and of culture since the 1990s. In his writings for "The Village Voice," "Vulture," "New York Magazine," "The New York Times," his lectures, talks, videos and posts, Jerry champions artists who have been too-long overlooked as well as long-celebrated artists, and he doesn’t hesitate to call out the most pressing political, societal and cultural crises of our times. The through line in his writing is art — and the ways it can inspire and change lives.

This interview was recorded before the passing of fellow art critic Peter Schjeldahl.
