Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Suzannah Sinclair: The Artist the Art World Forgot to Keep Watching (Part 2)
Q: What's going on now?
Suzannah describes being in her studio in Maine, working on a book through Sinclair's Garage, managing a shifting career after periods of no shows or recognition, and continuing to create despite challenges, with a renewed focus on openness and public sharing of her work.
Suzannah Sinclair: From Playboy Pinups to Egg Tempera (Part 1)
Q: What sustains you as an artist beyond gallery representation?
A strong mission, ongoing nonprofit work, community support, and a commitment to painting with sincerity and generosity keep her motivated even when market success is inconsistent.
Suzannah Sinclair: From Playboy Pinups to Egg Tempera (Part 1)
Q: Why did you shift from painting on wood to egg tempera, and how did life in Maine influence that change?
The move to Maine and a desire for a more pastoral, life-based subject matter led to experimenting with egg tempera; it also aligned with a broader shift in her practice toward process, seasonality, and family life as subject matter.
Suzannah Sinclair: From Playboy Pinups to Egg Tempera (Part 1)
Q: What was the first body of work that drew you into the art world and how did it affect you?
She describes the Playboy-inspired wood paintings, the mixed feelings of objectification and admiration, and how those works became a catalyst for exploring gender, gaze, and painting technique.
Avant Arte CEO Mazdak Sanii: The Next Generation of Art Collectors
Q: What is the end goal of this project and where do you see it heading in the long term?
The aim is to unite a broader generation of collectors, develop them into patrons of the arts, and create sustainable support for the arts sector beyond any single project or market trend.
