View

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists. 

Today is the final installment of my conversation with the artist TL Solien. In this last section, TL talks about building his dream studio, selling his dream studio, the best years of his career, dwindling interest, staying afloat, vulnerability, taking things personally, contemplating failure, building paintings in moments of fracture, learning art history late, finding satisfaction, healthy fuel, 30 minutes of joy, scale, notes from an opera, Tex Avery cartoons, how he starts a painting now, being stumped, and problem solving.

I'd like to add that I've been receiving a lot of love for the previous parts of this  conversation, and if this means you would like more long-form conversations like this one, please let me know at artmatterspodcast@gmail.com 

Finally please consider supporting this podcast by donating to ARTMATTERS Patreon. I just set it up and by donating you will help ensure the availability and continuation of these quality conversations.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists. 

And we're back with Part 2 of my three-part conversation with Wisconsin-based artist, TL Solien. Today we conclude the exploration of his early (or phase 1) art practice, including a fun description of the origins of his pictographic works. We talk about his early career experiences in visiting and exhibiting in New York City and living for a time in Paris. We discuss family, and home-life, agreements, and finances, the difficulties following the art market crash, and TL's  experience entering the culture of academia. Then we come back around to the concept or self-respect, the second phase of TL's studio practice, collage, Moby Dick, building paintings towards vibration , space, implied linearity and more. 

As I mentioned last week, I am extremely proud of this interview, and very thankful to my guest for his patience and his willingness to share so much of life with me and the ARTMATTERS listeners.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The podcast for artists. 

I’m particularly excited about today’s episode with the artist TL Solien. Prepare yourself for an epic conversation, recorded over two separate studio visits, and subsequently over four hours of material. In light of this, I’ve edited this conversation down into three episodes, which will come out weekly until complete, unlike the usual bi-weekly format of the show. 

● In episode 1, we get into TL’s painting process and his background and education.
● In episode 2, we talk about his family, his explosive early career success, and the challenges that followed the art market crash, when he was forced to seek out adjunct teaching opportunities wherever he could, move frequently, and often on his own.
● And in episode 3 where i pepper him with whatever i else i forgot, including his current painting ideology and focus. Also collaging and Moby Dick. 


I am extremely proud of this interview, and very thankful to my guest for his patience and his willingness to share so much of life with me and the ARTMATTERS listeners.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists

Happy New Years! On today’s episode i sit down with two terrific detroit-based artists. James Oscar Lee is a painter and textile artist, and Marcus Marcus, a multi-hyphenate, who develops music, performance art, and practical design. These two have been friends for years, and are frequent collaborators, one of the many reasons i asked them both to sit down and speak with me today. In this conversation we  discuss the shifting productivity of their artistic careers, the quiet after finishing up a project, how they stay confident while exploring new platforms or media, working for others, working together, old guy tools, and a brief look into their daily studio practice. 

About Marcus Marcus:
A dreamer learning to execute in the fields of Performance, Music and Practical Design. Born in Detroit, Raised in Southfield.

About James Oscar Lee:
James Oscar Lee is a Detroit-based painter and leather goods designer. His colorful abstract style on large-scale paintings layers figurative gestures and disrupted landscapes that tell multiple stories upon closer inspection. Each stroke of a brush or drag of a palette knife is meticulously but emotionally placed, like that of a note by a composer. Deeply inspired by music, the avant-garde sounds of both local and well-known musicians in part guide his every action as he paints.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists
On today’s episode we have the dramatic conclusion of my conversation with the artist James English Leary. Last time, James and I spoke at length about the state of art education. Today we discuss his new watercolors, collecting art, different kinds of change, deskilling, space and depiction, 19th century French painting and how unconditional support for an artists work - like love - is for babies.  We also talk Renoir, Matisse, Hockney, Schnabel, Guston, Jack Witten, Ron Gorchov and Howard Hodgkin.

This will be the last episode of ARTMATTERS in 2023 so I want to say a big thank you to all of my listeners! I hope you all have a great holiday and a happy new year:)

See you back in 2024 for the next episode of ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists
On today’s episode, I speak with the artist Jennifer Coates. In her recent paintings, ancient deities appear like ghosts in the abstracted landscape of rural Pennsylvania. Figures merge with their surroundings as weeds and trees become a site of both Pagan ritual and painterly event. The works hang together like tapestries with a variety of marks slowly accumulating in layers and zones to create a flickering but cohesive whole.  Coates is in conversation with art history, engaging Modernist landscapes, Baroque painting, and ancient Roman frescoes. Light effects are amplified and color is intensified, suffusing the paintings with the glow of synthetic chemistry. While oil paint references earth and flesh, Coates’s use of acrylic paint speaks to the history of plastics and dyes. Fluorescent paints, colors of safety and warning, are used to heighten the dense, hallucinatory scenes.

About Jennifer Coates
Jennifer Coates is an artist working in Brooklyn, NY and Lakewood, PA. She is the 2021 recipient of the John Koch Art Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, a 2021 NYFA Award in painting, a 2019 Fellowship at the Civitella Ranieri Foundation, and a Sharpe Walentas Studio residency (2018-2019) (tel:(2018-2019)). Recent solo shows include Para Pastoral at Pamela Salisbury Gallery, Hudson, NY; Lesser Gods of Lakewood PA at High Noon Gallery, NYC; and Pagan Forest, West Chester University. Recent group shows include Psychedelic Landscape at Eric Firestone Gallery, NYC, Post Pop Landscapes at Acquavella Galleries in NYC and Palm Beach, FL, curated by Todd Bradway. Her work has been written about in Hyperallergic, BOMB Magazine, the Brooklyn Rail, Art Critical, the Huffington Post, Smithsonian Journeys, and Art News, among other publications.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists
Today on the podcast I speak with Jaqueline Cedar. Brooklyn-based artist, and founder of the Good Naked Gallery. On this episode we discuss permanence and impermanence, romance and practicality, drawing out ideas versus immediacy, productivity, the 'more is more' practice and editing after the fact, the function of inspiration, 'nope' days, pleasure in the practice, how a painting develops, photography, painting from imagination,  grad school, teaching, multitasking, balance and 'checking-out',  goals, expectations and success, and the origins of the Good Naked Gallery.

 About:
Jaqueline Cedar was born in Los Angeles, CA and currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. In 2009 she received an MFA in Visual Arts from Columbia University. Recent exhibitions include Long Story Short, New York (2023), Shelter Gallery, New York (2022), Shin Haus, New York (2022), Smoke the Moon, Santa Fe (2022), Ladies' Room, Los Angeles (2021), 11 Newel, Brooklyn (2021), Peripheral Space, Los Angeles (2021), Hesse Flatow, New York (2020), Drawer NYC (2020), Field Projects, New York (2020), Underdonk, Brooklyn (2018), and David Risley Gallery Velvet Ropes, Copenhagen (2018). Press includes Artnet, Hyperallergic, Huffington Post, Two Coats of Paint, New American Paintings, Gorky's Granddaughter, Painters' Table, and The Boston Globe. 

Cedar's paintings and drawings address uncanny scenarios where characters engage themselves and one another with sincerity and purpose. Moments of desire, self-reflection, and lack of control motivate postures filled with bravado and vulnerability. In October 2019 Cedar launched the curatorial exhibition program Good Naked Gallery. Projects hover around the intimate and awkward with a focus on work that engages tactility, humor, movement, and play.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists
My guest today is Brooklyn-based artist Mark Zubrovich.  Mark and I talk about his recent stint on the Liquitex Artist Residency,  the first book he self-published "Stuff Bruce Likes to Sniff" as well as his drawing practice, love of surface, Marks thoughts about democratizing art, anxiety, effort, confidence, limitations, making problems for yourself, getting reacquainted with oil painting, scale & speed, tapping into your community, and a very awesome anecdote from his recent show at the Sanitary Tortilla Factory in Albuquerque.

About Mark:
Mark's father is a deacon in the Catholic Church and his mother works for a maker and distributer of Halloween costumes. Mark received his BFA from Purchase School of Art and Design in 2015. Mark make paintings and fiber-based work about how the contemporary queer body finds stable roots. His focus centers around the anthropomorphic dog, a figure Mark's deeply connected to as a conduit for feeling out that queer body. In both its prevalence in art historical tradition and through trans-human queer spaces like puppy players and the furry community. His most recent work has been a deep dive into costume and textile as new modes of self portraiture, particularly tapping into the furry community's iconic ritual of creating an anthro alter ego for one self called a "fursona". He currently lives and work in Brooklyn NY.

#016 with Nat Meade

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists

Today's guest is Brooklyn artist, Nat Meade. Together we discuss Nat's practice and technique in depth. His painting surface, medium,  composition and scale; his small studies, drawings and casein sketches. Later in the episode, Nat and I talk about before and after he came a full-time artist, his early career and what it means to find the confidence to paint for yourself and making your weakness your thing. We finish up talking trends, social media, and curating.

About Nat Meade:

Meade's work explores the complex experience of moving through the phases of one’s life. The figures in his paintings become stand-ins for himself as he investigates the experience of becoming an adult, a husband, and a parent, each character viewed through the dual lens of self-scrutiny and societal expectation.

Meade received his BFA from the University of Oregon and his MFA from Pratt Institute. His work has shown in numerous group and solo exhibitions nationally and internationally, and has been reviewed in publications such as Artforum, Juxtapoz, The Boston Globe, and Hyperallergic. He attended the Skowhegan School for Painting and Sculpture 2009, the Sharpe-Walentas Studio Program in 2016, the Siena Art Institute in 2018, and the James Castle House Summer Residency in Boise, Idaho in summer 2021.

Note:
Nat Meade's solo exhibtion "Hank Stanoer's Bones" at Hesse Flatow is currently in its' last days. If you're a NYC listener, check it out by Oct 14, 2023 at 508 W 26 Street, Suite 5G, New York, NY

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists

Today's conversation is with LA-based artist, Liv Aanrud. Liv is a texile artist . . . a  painter . . . someone who makes paintings out of textiles? Doesn't matter. They're great. And so was this converation. 

I asked Liv about the speed of her practice, her single figure compositions, beauty, where her paintings start, their color and pattern, her influences and collaboration experience.

We also discuss the health and well-being in the life of a contempory artist, compromised studios - when it's time to move, liv's ten-year break, starting from scratch in los angeles, keeping longevity, balance and foundation in an expensive city, building a community and knowing when a community doesn't serve you.

About Liv Aanrud work:

Liv's  lush, maximalist compositions depict female figures as doubles, inviting the viewer to ponder whether they are reflections, two separate figures, or one person in various stages. Their ornate bodies are covered in  symbols that allow for many possible narratives and  create a sense of total integration into the world they inhabit. 

Through intricate details and a psychedelic palette, Liv hopes to transport viewers to a dreamlike utopia where they are left to slowly and joyously discover and decode the artwork.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists

Today's conversation is with LA-based artist, Katie Hector. We talk residencies, her badass move to LA during Covid, her decision to leave graduate school, the artist as maker, balance, discipline, working in multiples, note-keeping, photographic reference, scale, "gesture intimacy and mystery", materials and abstraction, cold-calling, curating, and life skills. Enjoy!

Katie Hector (b. 1992) in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, is an artist, curator, and writer based near Los Angeles, California. Hector’s studio practice revolves around a series of process-based paintings that layer dye and bleach to create portrait-likenesses that symbolize loss, grief, intimacy, and longing. She earned a BFA in painting from the Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University graduating Magna Cum Laude in 2014. Her artwork has been exhibited nationally and internationally garnering her recognition in the form of awards, scholarships some of which include: 2020 Lillian Disney Scholarship, 2019 Arquetopia International Residency, the 2017 Picture Berlin International Residency, the 2016 Merit-Based Scholarship at Urban Glass, the 2014 Scott Cagenello Memorial-Prize, and the 2013 Ruth Crockett Award.

#012 - Andrew Ohanesian (LA Edition)

60 min

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists

On today's episode I speak with LA-based and Pierogi-represented artist, Andrew Ohanesian. We discuss hating a good idea, the beautiful bad idea, desperation, panic and 'that magic moment,' life reflecting the studio practice, communicating with an audience, experiencing art, memory, parring down narratives, the making of Mandies, control, being an artist assistant, the making of Dog Years and much more.

Andrew Ohanesian was born 1980 in Southern California, received a BFA in Art from the University of California, Berkeley, and moved to New York City in 2005.

His work spans large-scale site-specific installation, small mutiples and editions, with each series of work channeling an alternate version of himself, such as a lawyer, casino operator, or real estate agent to direct production accordingly. The ideas he chooses to investigate, criticize, and subsume are always topical to the economy and his personal navigation of life, often digging deeply into scars either visible or not - “pushing where it hurts.” He builds environments, strategically placing utilitarian soon-to-be anachronistic elements into the viewer's world to engage with under the auspices of using the object for its intended, manufactured purpose, but within the context of contemporary art. The experience is a nuanced slight-of-hand between the objects or space aggregated, the audience, and his psyche. Relationships between the person and the space, their ego, and what they deem as relatable or comfortable are questioned, disturbed, and shaken, altering their future perspective of their environment and themselves.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: the podcast for artists!

The long awaited episode 9 has finally arrived! This time I'm joined by london-based, multi-displinary artist Rosie McGinn. We discuss her early career experience, the origins of her current studio practice, her recent collab with Balenciaga, artist residencies, Sassy the Sasquatch and studio meditating. And a couple of other things i'm forgetting right now. Rosie's the best, and this episode isn't too shabby either.

Joining me this week on ARTMATTERS is New Zealand-based artist, Michael Greaves. I met Michael early on in my career, really when i was just starting out. Michael has been exhibiting professionally since 2001, which is just one of the many reasons i was so excited to talk with him today. To hear him discuss the ups and downs of his career, the changing art world, becoming a father, and the shifting impact of art history - sharing  years of experience like this is invaluable, as we all forge our individual paths and establish what it is we want from our own art careers.

Today on ARTMATTERS, I sit down with Brooklyn-based artist Andrea Emmerich.. Andrea and I discuss her approach to composition and image-making, "The Shift" (drastic changes in subject matter or practice),  definitions of success, and feelings of jealousy in artists.

This was a great conversation and  it served to remind me just how many 'unique' challenges in an artist's life are actually universal and the more we share with one another the stronger we become. That's what the ARTMATTERS Podcast is all about.

Enjoy the Show.

Mike Picos is a Queens-based artist who’s coming off a two-person show at NYC artist-run gallery, The Catskills. Mike got his BFA at Cornell University and currently has one foot out the door — as he’ll be attending Yale University for his MFA this fall. Congrats Mike!

Together Mike and I discuss his decision to apply to graduate school, leaving New York, his definition of success, his ongoing project the Rad Group (a NYC art literature platform) and the slippery definitions of painting abstraction versus representation.

Here's the second episode of ARTMATTERS where i speak to Brooklyn artist Dan Fig about the difficulties of and solutions to working in the studio when you're struggling emotionally, whether it's better to pay the bills with a job in the arts or something entirely different, and how to know if your art's "any good." This was actually the first episode of ARTMATTERS to be recorded so please forgive any confusion on that end.
