Exhibitionistas

Believe it or not, this is the first episode dedicated to an exhibition at the Hayward Gallery, a brutalist building Joana and Emily love so much. And what better way to start than with the immersive experience of Haegue Yang’s solo show? Even the threshold between the hall and the exhibition space is a happening in “Leap Year”, the first survey of the South Korean artist in the UK, open from 9 October 2024 to 5 January 2025. This episode was recorded during the week, late in the afternoon, rather than in our usual time (the early hours of a quiet Sunday) so it may be infused with a certain chaotic energy. Or was it the sensory fest of Yang’s art? Tune in to decide for yourself.

This episode is dedicated to beloved and prematurely deceased American artist Mike Kelley. The Tate Modern has set up an impressive retrospective, those once-in-a-lifetime exhibitions that you cannot miss if you're in town. So we decided to dig in and bring it to you if you can't make it and enhance your experience if you did. There are opinions, feelings, stories and a cacophonous experience that will leave no one indifferent.  Jack White finally makes an appearance again as we had once promised!  Joana and Emily introduce you to the universe of Mike Kelley, of anarchist and punk teenage and young adult years, who ceaselessly poked at the overwhelming and overpowering world of entertainment. Then they move on to his academic life and career achievements, always marked by a rebellious streak consistently visible in his work about the traps of memory, the failings of education and psychology, and the fine line between fiction and reality.

Yes! We have our first guest on the podcast, art advisor Liberté Nuti. As often happens in the art world, we are not always familiar with each other's jobs. And forget telling people you are a podcaster! (People think you are an influencer selling hair products online.) So let's start to dismantle some myths and find out more about what it is that us intermediaries of the art world do. Joana goes on this quest on her own this time, as Emily is on sick leave, and it is Joana's expertise after all, to interview people and do talks about art topics. Joana asks Liberté about all theses things and ends the conversation on the topic of dream exhibitions. What are they? How do they impact our lives and why?

We go back to The Curve at the Barbican for the first institutional exhibition of Pamela Phatsimo’s work in the UK, titled It Will End in Tears. And what an entrance Sunstrum’s work is having in London! The exhibition adapts to the demanding shape of The Curve, basically a curved corridor initially designed as a buffer between the auditoriums and the hall, and now a creative exhibition space that Joana and Emily have come to love. Sunstrum involves the viewer in a revised film noir narrative, where the “femme” is perhaps even more “fatale” than usual.
