    Carl E Hazlewood

    Ep.230 Carl E. Hazlewood (b. 1951) was born in Guyana, South America. Parallel to his studio practice, Hazlewood co-founded Aljira, a Center for Contemporary Art in Newark, NJ in 1983. Steeped in modest materials, such as polyester, push pins, map pins and metallic string, form is foregrounded and the slippage between drawing, painting and sculpture places his work in a space that challenges the conventions of each medium, and forces the viewer to experience form on its own terms. Hazlewood explains, “Like a sculptor, I work to find 'shapes' and 'volumes', implied or actual. And like painting, the layering becomes an intuitive search for textures, color and form…I define edges, where things begin and end, where they may find relationships and multiple transitions against or into each other. I think of this as 'drawing' the accumulation of parts into active and resonant connections. Then those 'active' parts are pinned into a final configuration, something that feels properly 'evocative' yet stable as plastic form.” Solo exhibitions of his work include BlackHead Anansi: Constellations at Charlotte and Philip Hanes Gallery, Wake Forest University, South Carolina (2023); Racing Thoughts-Fever Dreaming at Art Basel Miami Beach (2022); and BlackHead Lyricism at Welancora Gallery (2022). Hazlewood has been the recipient of fellowships at the MacDowell organization (2023, 2015); the Brown Foundation at the Dora Maar House, Ménerbes, France (2018); and the Bogliasco Foundation, Italy (2018). His fifty-two-foot-tall wall work, TRAVELER (2017), was commissioned by the Knockdown Center, Queens. Collections include: The National Museum of African American History and Culture, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC , The Study Center, Bogliasco Foundation, Genova, Italy, The Dora Maar House, Ménerbes, France, Ogden Museum of Southern Art, New Orleans, Louisiana, Museu Brasileiro da Escultura, São Paulo - Brazil, The Schomburg Center Collections, New York, NY, The University of Guyana, South America and The National Collection of Fine Arts, Castellani House, Guyana, South America.

    Na Kim

    Ep.229 Na Kim b.1986 Seoul, South Korea Na Kim lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. Known for her mimetic portraits set against polychromatic backgrounds, Na Kim’s paintings depict figures but are conceptually abstract. Her imagined subjects, derivative yet unique, evoke both confrontational and intimate encounters. Kim’s practice centers neither accuracy nor narrative, but rather reflects a deeply meditative character study. Solo exhibitions include Kim’s debut solo presentation at White Columns, New York (2023) and forthcoming show at Nicola Vassell Gallery, New York (2025). Group exhibitions include The Selves, Nicola Vassell Gallery, New York (2024) and the White Columns Benefit Auction, New York (2023, 2024). Kim has shown work at a number of art fairs, including Art Basel Miami Beach, Miami (2024) and Independent Art Fair, New York (2024). In addition to her fine art practice, Kim currently works as the art director of The Paris Review and creative director of the publishing house Farrar, Straus and Giroux. Her designs have been named among The New York Times’ best book covers of the year for the past nine consecutive years.

    Elliott Barnes

    Ep.228 ELLIOTT BARNES A Los Angeles native, Elliott Barnes graduated from Cornell University in New York State in 1985 with a Bachelors and a Masters in Architecture and Urban Planning. In 1984 the AIA member architect began his career with Arthur Erickson Architects in Los Angeles. In 1987, he joined the Paris office of renowned designer Andrée Putman, who in 1997 handed over the design management of her firm to him, a position he occupied until 2003. In 2004 Elliott Barnes created his own interior design firm in Paris. His aesthetic talents meant that he was immediately sought-after for exceptional design projects, including private residential properties, retail and institutional spaces, hotels and spa, installations in France and abroad. As his work shows, it is his obsession with detail that characterizes his style, which is both eclectic and demure. His notable projects include a visitors and reception center for Champagne Billecart Salmon in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, the new Tai Ping showroom in Paris, the five-star Hotel de Montesquieu in Paris, as well as the Ritz Carlton palace in Wolfsburg in Germany. A sterling silver limited edition collection for Christofle around the theme of Champagne now on exhibition at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, a chalet in Megève (France), the headquarters and tasting center of Ruinart in Reims, a rug collection for Tai Ping, or a penthouse showcase apartment of the real estate group Mitsui in Tokyo, and a chalet in Verbier (Switzerland). He designed the scenography for the exhibition on Gaby Aghion at the Jewish Museum in New York in October 2023. In 2024 his Endless Summer II bench, was acquired by Le Mobilier National, the French National Furniture Collection. The Elliott Barnes style resides in his elegant handling of light and use of both unusual and noble materials which invest unique, exclusive spaces with an innovative approach to luxury. His design talent has been acclaimed by the magazines AD France-AD 100 since 2014, ELLE Decor USA-A List and Architectural Digest USA-AD100 since 2021. In 2023 he was the winner of the «Talent for Elegance» award from The Centre du Luxe et de la Création, France. Wallpaper magazine selected him as one of the 300 American design creatives to know in 2023 and one of the 400 American creatives to know in the Tastemakers category in 2024. Elliott Barnes is considered one of the top 100 interior designers in the world. Passionate about art, Elliott Barnes is also the founder of The Barnes Contemporary (@thebarnescontemporary), a private collection based upon portraits of his family members by artists from the African diaspora. This collection was initiated 12 years ago.

    Zohra Opoku

    Ep.227 Zohra Opoku examines the politics of personal identity formation through historical, cultural, and socio-economic influences, particularly in the context of contemporary Ghana. Opoku's explorations have primarily been expressed through her photography, which she translates into screen printing. This process has led to a collage art practice that combines hand-stitched embroidery on various pre-dyed natural fabrics. She also incorporates references from West African brass-making traditions into her work, which can be experienced as applications on the textile pieces or as sculptures themselves. While her work relays social commentary and broadly relevant themes around the human experience, each of Zohra's explorations is intimately rooted in personal identity politics. She repeatedly integrates family heirlooms and her own self-image into her visual observations of Ghana's cultural memory. In 2023, she is among the artists exhibited in the 15th edition of Sharjah Biennale ‘Thinking Historically in the Present’ (United Arab Emirates), as Black Rock Sénégal Alumni at 14th edition of DAK’ART ‘Forger/Out Of Fire’ in 2022 and at 7th Athens Biennale ‘Eclipse’(Greece) 2021. She has exhibited internationally such as the Brooklyn Museum (NYC), The Museum for Photography (Chicago), The Cleveland Museum of Art, High Museum of Art (Atlanta), Kunsthaus Hamburg, Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg, Musée de l'Ethnographie (Bordeaux), Guggenheim Museum (Bilbao), Kunsthal Rotterdam, Archaeological Museum of Mykonos, Southbank Centre / Hayward Gallery (London), TATE London, SAVVY Contemporary (Berlin), Palais Populaire (Berlin), National Museum Nairobi, CCA Lagos, Nubuke Foundation (Accra) and RAW Material Company (Dakar). Her work is collected by renowned institutions such as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles; CCS Bard College Hessel Museum of Art, Annandale-on-Hudson, NY; The Royal Museum of Ontario Toronto, Ontario; The Faurschou Foundation, Copenhagen, Denmark; TATE Modern, London, United Kingdom; The Onassis Collection, Athens, Greece and The Centre Pompidou, Paris, France. Zohra Opoku is born 1976 in Altdöbern (former GDR/ East Germany), lives and works in Accra/ Ghana and is represented by Mariane Ibrahim Gallery Chicago / Paris / Mexico City.

    Pio Abad

    Ep.223 Pio Abad (b.1983) is an artist whose work is concerned with the personal and political entanglements of objects. His wide-ranging body of work, mines alternative or repressed historical events and offers counter narratives that draw out threads of complicity between incidents, ideologies and people. Deeply informed by unfolding events in the Philippines, where the artist was born and raised, his work emanates from a family narrative woven into the nation’s story. He has exhibited at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford; 58th Carnegie International; the 5th Kochi-Muziris Biennial; Ateneo Art Gallery, Manila; Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo; Kadist, San Francisco; Oakville Galleries, Ontario; the 2nd Honolulu Biennial; 12th Gwangju Biennial; 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art, Sydney and Gasworks, London. He was recently nominated for the 2024 Turner Prize. Abad’s works are part of a number of important collections including Tate, UK; Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh; Hawai​i State Art Museum, Honolulu and Singapore Art Museum. Abad is also the curator of the estate of his aunt, the Filipino American artist Pacita Abad. He has co-curated monographic exhibitions on Pacita Abad at the Museum of Contemporary Art and Design Manila and Spike Island, Bristol.
