NOTA BENE: This Week in the Art World

NOTA BENE is the podcast version of a boozy lunch at Sant Ambroeus in which adviser Benjamin Godsill and Vanity Fair art columnist Nate Freeman dish fresh art world gossip from Dimes Square to Mayfair, peel back the curtain on auctions, galleries and fairs—and, critically, tell you where to eat and drink in every museum-stuffed port of call. Plus there’s a special guest each week, and we’ll roast them good regardless of how much clout they carry on the circuit. It’s NOTA BENE. Don’t close the deal until you tune in.

    London! With Special Guest Jonas Wood AND FAMILY

    Benjamin is back. In a special (and sadly Nate-free) episode we have occasion to sit down with Jonas Wood on the eve of his exhibition opening at Gagosian, London. Jonas and Benjamin discuss his recent travels, his new paintings and being a dad who's an artist. We also do our best Huberman impression and discuss our workout and recovery routines on the road. In a special, special twist we are then joined by Jonas' family - his wife the ceramicist Shio Kusaka and their awesome kids Momo and Kiki. Shio and the kids discuss what it's like to have themselves and their work depicted in Jonas' paintings and how much fun it is traveling as a family. All that, and more ON THE ONLY ART PODCAST! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/benjamin-godsill/support

    NFT SHE DIDN'T: With Special Guests LARVA LABS

    We are back. Join Nate and Benjamin for a quick catch-up on the traffic hell that is the United Nations General Assembly. Then, Benjamin finally breaks the self-imposed ban on NFT's on the pod to sit down with Matt Hall and John Watkinson, founders of Larva Labs and the creators of one of the earliest and most iconic NFTs - the Crypto Punks. We discuss their background, the blockchain and if NFTs are or are not art. We also get into a work of theirs that will be auctioned off this week on FairWarning with all proceeds going to charity.

    Back to WORK with Gallerist Sebastian Gladstone & Artist Tristan Unrau

    Nate and Benjamin are back in the saddle (finally) to discuss a yuuuge week back in New York. We talk art fairs, gallery openings, fashion week and the US OPEN. We are then thrilled to be joined by Los Angeles gallerist Sebastian Gladstone along with an artist from his roster, Tristan Unrau. Sebastian has forgone any New York fairs this season and taken a short term lease on a downtown space for a series of exhibitions, the first of which is an exceptional solo show by Tristian. We discuss Sebastian's evolution as a gallerist, this innovative program in New York and then Tristian's intricate and seductive painting project. AND WE EVEN BREAK SOME NEWS.
