    Why Are Fashion and Art Such Natural Partners? (with Rejina Pyo)

    For Rejina Pyo, the lines between fashion, art, and design are wonderfully blurred: “The way I design clothes is the same as designing a table or designing a space ... I’m really trying to be true to myself.” This month, the London-based designer and artist opened Rejina Pyo 86, a new shop in Notting Hill that doubles as a gallery with curated exhibitions—an expansion of her long-running interest in bringing art and fashion together. Pyo joins Artsy’s editor in chief Casey Lesser on this episode of The Artsy Podcast for a conversation about her affinity for art and artists and why fashion and art are such ideal bedfellows. Plus, Casey and senior art market editor Arun Kakar reflect on the past year in art, discuss insights from Artsy’s newly released Artsy Buyer Trends report, and share a few personal art highlights from 2025.  In tandem with the episode, Pyo curated a collection of artworks on Artsy, which you can explore here.  Rejina Pyo is a designer and artist, as well as the founder and creative director of her eponymous fashion label.

    What Can Artists Teach Us About Cooking? (with Julia Sherman)

    According to Julia Sherman, cooking is a lot like painting: “ It’s a composition, it’s layering of materials… it works best when there’s contrasting flavors and textures and colors.”  The author and chef is bringing this philosophy to her latest venture as executive chef of the new restaurant at New York’s New Museum, opening this fall. On this episode of The Artsy Podcast, Sherman joins Artsy’s managing editor Olivia Horn for a conversation about how artists eat, why art institutions are leaning into dining, and what the art and food worlds can learn from each other.  Plus, Artsy editors Casey Lesser and Arun Kakar recap recent art fairs in Seoul and New York and discuss the artists who are on their radar this fall.

    Can Art Thrive in the Age of AI? (with Kyle Chayka)

    This spring, a wave of AI-generated imagery in the style of Japanese animation house Studio Ghibli flooded social media. The trend renewed debate about how AI affects the way we make and experience art. On this episode of The Artsy Podcast, we tackle some of those questions with New Yorker staff writer Kyle Chayka, whose book Filterworld explores the impact of online algorithms on popular culture. We discuss the homogenizing effects of social media, the evolving role of curators, and the importance of cultivating personal taste at a time when culture is mediated by machines.  Plus, Artsy editors Casey Lesser and Arun Kakar share insights on the Chinese art market from Arun’s recent visit to Beijing and preview their upcoming trip to Art Basel. Kyle Chayka is a staff writer at The New Yorker, where he writes a column about the intersections of digital technology and popular culture.

    Can NFTs Inspire Mindfulness? (with Marina Abramović)

    Marina Abramović built her career by testing the limits of the body. Now, she’s testing what digital art can do. On this episode of The Artsy Podcast, the groundbreaking performance artist joins us for a conversation about launching her new NFT project, bringing mindfulness to the digital realm, and using her work to reach across generational divides.  Plus, Artsy editors Casey Lesser and Arun Kakar break down everything you need to know about Frieze Week in New York—a period packed with art fairs, gallery openings, and can’t-miss museum shows. About our guest: Marina Abramović is perhaps the most famous performance artist working today. Employing duration, pain, danger, exhaustion, and viewer participation, she works at extremes and complicates the relationship between art and audience. Abramović exhibited at Documenta in 1977, 1982, and 1992 and at the Venice Biennale in 1976 and 1997, when she was awarded the Golden Lion. In her famous 2010 Museum of Modern Art retrospective, “The Artist Is Present,” visitors sat across from Abramović in silent communion. More recently, she became the first woman artist to stage a solo exhibition in the Royal Academy’s main galleries in the institution’s 255-year history. Abramović is the founder of the Marina Abramović Institute, which promotes performance art globally. Key topics: NFTs, digital art, performance art, the future of museums, advice for young artists, Frieze New York Fairs and exhibitions mentioned: Frieze New York: May 7th–11th at The ShedTEFAF New York: May 9th–13th at Park Avenue ArmoryNADA New York: May 7th–11th at the Starrett-Lehigh BuildingFuture Fair: May 7th–10th at Chelsea Industrial1-54 New York: May 8th–11th at HaloEsther II: May 6th–10th at the Estonian HouseMichael Armitage, “Crucible” at David Zwirner: opening May 8thAntonia Showering, “In Line” at Timothy Taylor: opening May 8th Élise Peroi, “For Thirsting Flowers” at Carvalho Park: through May 23rdThe Frick CollectionJack Whitten, “The Messenger” at MoMA: through August 2nd  Related reading: The Legacy of Marina Abramović’s “The Artist Is Present” Lives On with New Generations of Artists How Digital Art Has Fared Since the NFT Boom

    When Will Great Women Artists Get Their Due? (with Katy Hessel)

    In 1971, Linda Nochlin’s groundbreaking essay “Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?” posed a provocative question about the role of gender in art history. Today, we know that there have been great women artists across time and cultures—but, too often, their greatness isn’t recognized by the art market. Art historian Katy Hessel visits The Artsy Podcast for a special Women’s History Month episode to discuss the importance of talking about women’s representation in the art world, the progress that has been made towards gender parity, and the contemporary women artists she’s watching now. Plus, Artsy editors Casey Lesser and Arun Kakar discuss the month’s art news, including the scene at TEFAF, developments in AI artwork, and standout exhibitions in London, Austin, and Hong Kong.  Katy Hessel is an art historian, curator, broadcaster, and author of The Story of Art without Men. Her upcoming book How to Live an Artful Life is out in November.
