In this unforgettable episode, I’m joined by the extraordinary Jane Adams, a passionate advocate, art historian, and formerly the Director of Partnership Relations for Advancing Women Artists. Today she is co-founder and CEO of Artemisia Gold.
Jane brings with her a deeply moving and richly layered story, one that begins with the spark of a mission ignited by author and philanthropist Jane Fortune, and blossoms into a global movement to uncover, restore, and celebrate the long-forgotten works of women artists hidden throughout Florence’s churches, museums, and storied halls.
This episode isn’t just about art. It’s about justice, recognition, and legacy. Jane shares the behind-the-scenes challenges and triumphs of breathing life back into masterpieces that were nearly lost to time, and she speaks with heart and urgency about the importance of giving these women the visibility they were long denied.
Jane’s insight is not only illuminating but deeply inspiring. Her passion radiates as she recounts how a once-overlooked painting becomes a reclaimed piece of history, a recovered voice, a restored place in the cultural narrative.
If you care about art, women's history, meaningful travel, or stories that stir the soul, this conversation will leave you deeply moved and energized. You’ll walk away seeing the art world, and perhaps the world itself, a little differently.
And don’t miss hearing about Jane’s uniquely curated art tour through Italy with Kiki Keating of KiKiNetwork Travel, designed to bring travelers face-to-face with these rediscovered treasures. It’s more than a tour. This is a pilgrimage through forgotten genius and enduring beauty.
This episode of Speaking of Travel is heartfelt, eye-opening, and brimming with passion. Join us in giving voice to the women who painted in silence, and whose stories are finally being told.
