Reviews

4.9 out of 5 stars from 34 ratings
  • Valuable show for artists

    5 stars. This show is a great asset for artists. So many honest and important conversations. It’s hard and often demoralizing trying to be an artist and keeping the dream alive in a largely indifferent world and it’s good to hear these inspiring people discuss their experiences.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#60 with Kyle Staver
Q: Have you ever felt like you're running out of ways to place figures in space?
I never feel that way; it's a self-feeding process, and the painting often dictates what goes in it.
#60 with Kyle Staver
Q: How does your average studio day work? When do you start working?
I get up at 4.45, feed my animals, and by 8:39, I'm in my studio drawing the painting where it is from the day before.
#59 with Erik Sommer
Q: How do you manage balancing your art practice with running a gallery?
Sommer describes the challenge of balancing his gallery work with personal art projects by finding creative ways to make art outside his studio during busy gallery periods.
#59 with Erik Sommer
Q: What are some factors that motivated your transition to the use of unconventional mark-making techniques?
Erik Sommer explains that he has always been drawn to texture and urban decay, seeking to explore those themes through unconventional materials like concrete and drywall.
#57 with Michael Stamm
Q: Can I ask about that idea that a painting should do something?
Stamm suggests that each painting carries a specific intention or emotional weight that goes beyond mere aesthetics.
