The Artfully Podcast

Episode 24: Cindy Sherman, remembering Elizabeth Blackadder and Chuck Close, and the 'anti cancel culture' art exhibition

Hello Autumn! We are so ready for you. It’s been a disappointing summer weather-wise here in the UK, so we are very excited for a September full of art and exhibitions. New exhibitions include Doron Lamberg at Victoria Miro, Helen Frankenthaler at Dulwich Picture Gallery, Tacita Dean at Frith Street Gallery and Surrealist Female Artists at the Whitechapel. Our main story focuses on Poland, and a controversial ‘anti-cancel culture’ art exhibition that was set to open at Ujazdowski Castle Center for Contemporary Art. We discuss some of the 30 artists included, and the protests surrounding it from Poland’s anti-fascist league and various LGBTQ+ and Jewish organizers. We also look back on the lives of two artists who passed away recently: Dame Elizabeth Blackadder and Chuck Close, before turning to our Artist Focus: Cindy Sherman. Sherman is an American artist whose work consists primarily photographic self-portraits, depicting herself in many different contexts and as various imagined characters. We try to dig down to the ‘real’ Cindy Sherman, if that’s possible!

Episode 23: The Climate Controversy of NFT Art, the E.U. vs Banksy, and Frank Auerbach

Where have the past few months gone? After an un-intentional hiatus, we are back with some exhibition recommendations, new artist finds and juicy art world stories. We discuss long lost artworks that have just turned up in Germany and Italy, cue speculation a plenty. Liz provides an update on her NFT experimentation, whilst we also discuss the big elephant in the Crypto Art room - climate change. And hindsight is a bitch if you’re Banksy, after he loses an E.U. copyright court case thanks, in part, to his own statement that ‘Copyright is for Losers’. Our Artist Focus for this episode is German-British painter Frank Auerbach. Born in Berlin, his parents sent him to Britain in 1939 under the Kindertransport scheme. We discuss the importance of his influences in his life, including his teacher David Bomberg, and friends that include Leon Kossof, Francis Bacon and Lucien Freud. His friendship in particular with Kossof has been the subject of multiple articles and exhibitions in itself.

Episode 22: Art Forgery in New York, How Not To Exclude Artist Parents, the NFT crypto art craze, and Jenny Holzer

We kick off this episode with a fresh co-hort of artist recommendations and documentaries to check out, including Netflix’s hit ‘Made You Look: A True Story of Fake Art’. The tale of $80 million worth of art forgeries in New York in the 90s and 00s was truly gripping and pretty shocking. We also discuss writer Hettie Judah’s campaign for how the art world can avoid excluding artist parents, and the upcoming sale of Karl Lagerfeld’s art collection with Sotheby's. Before we weigh into our Artist Focus, we try and tackle the burgeoning NFT crypto art craze and what it will mean for the art world. Finally, our art crush this episode is American Neo-Conceptual and Feminist artist Jenny Holzer. The main focus of her work is the delivery of words and ideas in public spaces, and she often comments on war time controversies and violence against women.

Episode 21: Alex Katz, Jerry Saltz and *that* art critic tweet, and Nick Cave’s ’Truth Be Told’ installation triumphs

We kick off 2021 with Episode 2021! (Side note, we cancelled Episode 20 because we were getting 2020 bad vibes from it). We have a host of online exhibitions, events and documentaries to delve into whilst Lockdown and the wintry winds are keeping you house bound. They include: the RCA Work in Progress Show, Deborah Brown at Unit London, and documentary, Black Art: In the Absence of Light. In the news we discuss Jerry Saltz’s blooper tweet that claims critics ‘put more into writing’ than artists. It did not go down well. We’ll talk you through the outcry, and how Jerry tried to firefight it. Meanwhile art triumphs over the villagers of Kinderhook, N.Y. and FKA Twigs shines the light on Kara Walker’s Fons Americanus in her latest music video. Our Artist Focus is Alex Katz. Evading hype for the majority of his career, the now 93 year old American artist has defied categorisation and trends for decades. We discuss the role of his muse, wife Ada Del Moro Katz, who he has painted for over six decades, and the different epochs the Brooklyn-born artist has lived through and experienced, including Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism and Pop Art.

Episode 19: A 2020 round-up, that Mary Wollstonecraft statue, the Humboldt Forum opening, and Georgia O’Keeffe

Our final attempt at a podcast for 2020, and we’re trying to keep it fun-filled and Covid-free! We kick procedures off in traditional form for Christmas with a mostly art-based quiz. As it’s a bit of a special episode we round up our favourite artist discoveries in 2020, we pin our hopes on new shows in 2021, and we couldn’t resist but stir up drama with some art-world stories. The controversial Mary Wollstonecraft statue, the soft-opening of the Humboldt Forum in Berlin, and the frustration of a Kandinsky restitution claim. We were both a bit giddy about our final Artist Focus of 2020: it’s the record-breaking Georgia O’Keeffe. Mother of American Modernism, she was plagued throughout her life by interpretations of her work as expressions of the female sex organ. But while she found success amongst the New York elite, she spent most of her life working in New Mexico, avoiding the city scene and the labels they attributed to her. Enjoy!
