    The White-Line Woodcut: Past, Present and Future

    This special series of Atelier follows a group of American women who studied and practiced art in Paris at the height of the Belle Époque, then reunited in Provincetown, Massachusetts, as artists in one of the era’s most important printmaking collectives. The series features conversations with participants from the October 2026 symposium, Drawn Together: Trailblazing American Women Artists in Belle Époque Paris. For our third episode, we speak with two practitioners of the white-line printing technique pioneered by the Provincetown Printers: Fred Dylla, a physicist, artist and founder of the White Line Woodcut Guild, and Bill Evaul, an artist, writer, educator and founder of Evaul Studios in Provincetown. They tell us how this technique reunited them, what makes it so special, and how they honor the legacy of the Provincetown Printers in their own work while pushing the craft into new territory.

    [Arabic] Stitching Memory and Reclaiming Identity with Maha Al-Daya

    Now available in Arabic. Listen to the English version of the episode here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4xJRXq4eCRRqXjk1go0FLY?si=D33b2ASpREC-IEq0y2F1Pg In April 2024, after enduring six months of war, Palestinian artist Maha Al-Daya was forced to flee her home in Gaza with her family. Throughout her exodus, Al-Daya continued to make art using whatever surrounded her: charcoal from burnt wood, canvas from her tent, flyers dropped by the Israeli planes. It was the only way she knew how to process her loss and maintain her identity. Al-Daya is now an artist-in-residence at Reid Hall, jointly hosted by the Columbia Institute for Ideas and Imagination, the Columbia Global Paris Center, and Sciences Po as part of the PAUSE program. In this episode, she tells her story and discusses her latest works, created entirely through embroidery—a medium she calls “the language of Palestinian women.” She also shares the challenges of building a new life in France while feeling the constant pull of the home she left behind, her approach to different artistic mediums and techniques, and her ambition to create art that focuses less on war, and more on hope.

    Blood Will Flow: The Murderous Business of Oil and Gas with Phil Chetwynd and Alex Perry

    This episode was recorded live at Reid Hall as part of the Voices in Journalism series. Award-winning journalist and author Alex Perry speaks with Phil Chetwynd, Global News Director at Agence France-Presse (AFP), on Blood Will Flow: The Murderous Business of Oil and Gas, a gripping investigation into the human, political, and economic forces driving one of the world's most powerful industries. Beginning with the devastating 2021 ISIS attack on Palma, Mozambique—a town transformed by one of the largest natural gas projects in Africa—Perry reconstructs the events that left hundreds dead and exposed profound failures by governments, corporations, and private security actors. From this harrowing story, he broadens the lens to examine the opaque networks of influence, wealth, and violence that underpin the global oil and gas economy.

    Can Experiences Be Inherited? with Dr. Bianca Jones Marlin

    How can a young girl’s experience of starvation lead to metabolic issues in her grandchildren? The answer is transgenerational epigenetic inheritance – how biological responses to physical, emotional, or environmental stress can be passed down through generations.  In this episode, Dr. Bianca Jones Marlin, the Herbert and Florence Irving Assistant Professor of Cell Research at the Zuckerman Institute at Columbia University in New York City, explains the mechanics behind transgenerational epigenetic inheritance and provides a glimpse into her latest project, TRANSMIND, which investigates whether memories alone can be inherited in some form. She also shares how growing up with foster siblings fed her interest in parental-offspring relationships, explores whether scientists can be activists, and challenges the assumed objectivity of science. Bianca Jones Marlin was a 2025 – 2026 Reid Hall Faculty Visitor, an initiative jointly supported by the Columbia Global Paris Center and the Institute for Ideas and Imagination.

    Returning to Reid Hall with Robert O’Meally and Brune Biebuyck

    An institution founded to welcome American women artists once turned Meta Vaux Warrick Fuller away at the door. Decades later, bringing a symposium on Fuller to that same place, Reid Hall, was a deliberate act of reckoning.  In this episode, Robert O’Meally, Zora Neale Hurston Professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University, and Brune Biebuyck, director of Reid Hall and the Columbia Global Paris Center, reflect on what the symposium uncovered—and where it might lead next. O’Meally considers Fuller alongside figures including Bessie Smith, Frederick Douglass, and Henry Ossawa Tanner, tracing a shared impulse toward self-determination and artistic freedom. Biebuyck reflects on the symposium as an act of reparation and looks ahead to what could follow: annual gatherings, future residencies, and perhaps even a sculpture inspired by Fuller’s work at Reid Hall. This special series of Atelier was produced in conjunction with a three-day symposium dedicated to celebrating the work and life of Meta Vaux Warrick Fuller. Across these conversations, we bring together scholars, curators, and other special guests to revisit her legacy and situate it within its historical moment. The symposium and podcast series were made possible with support from the Columbia Global Paris Center and the Terra Foundation for American Art, and with the participation of the Columbia Institute for Ideas and Imagination, the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Danforth Art Museum at Framingham State University.
