Carla Bruni & Painting Walmart
This week in Studio 360, Kurt Andersen talks with a painter who wants to capture the way we live today — so he paints people and products in Walmart. He used to get kicked out, but now the store has given him carte-blanche. We’ll hear about a gang of European jewel thieves and the police who pursue them, all of them imagining their lives as a glamorous heist movie. And speaking of glamorous, we’ll have a studio performance from Carla Bruni — supermodel, former First Lady, and a very fine songwriter.
