<p>In episode 2 of the series Dangerously Modern we follow the painter Stella Bowen, who left Adelaide for Europe and was part of a storied avant-garde art scene in Paris in the 1920s. </p><p>Overseas, a young Stella met the writer Ford Maddox Ford, a relationship that sparked her intellectually but ultimately sabotaged her own career. It wasn't until she struck out on her own as a single mother, that Stella painted her most compelling work and achieved a fragile success.</p><p>Produced and presented by Rosa Ellen and commissioned by the <a href="https://www.agsa.sa.gov.au/whats-on/exhibitions/dangerously-modern-australian-women-artists-in-europe-1890-1940/dangerously-modern-podcast/">Art Gallery of South Australia</a>.</p>
