A Collaboration Between 2 Artists that Led to Creative Growth (ep. 183‪)‬ The Art Biz

    • Visual Arts

Host: Alyson B. Stanfield
In this episode of The Art Biz I talk with Lori Sokoluk and Susan Purney Mark, who met in my coaching group many years ago and started a collaboration during the pandemic.
When I teach about collaboration, I’m usually talking about an exhibition or event. Lori and Susan took it to the next level and collaborated on the artwork itself—resulting in a two-person exhibition that recently closed.
I wanted to know what the artmaking process was like when you’re presented with someone else’s marks on the canvas. I think you’ll enjoy hearing about it and what they discovered during the process
We also discussed:
The parameters of the collaboration. The challenges they faced, such as Lori’s physical limitations. How they titled the pieces together (a fascinating theme and process). How they divided up the business stuff. How the exhibition was organized. How it has affected their individual work. The advice they share with any artist who is open to collaboration. 🎧 RELATED EPISODES
Here are a few more episodes about collaboration:
Multiply Your Audience and Expand Your Show’s Impact with Jill Powers (ep. 27)
Knit Democracy Together with Eve Jacobs-Carnahan (ep. 64)
Play Tops Work, Connection Tops Solitude, and Confidence Tops Fear with Willie Cole (ep. 126)
Expanding Your Skillset to Respond to Opportunities with Detour (ep. 128)
