Coaching, practicing, and following your intuition w. painter ANDREW SMALDONE Tintamarre: An Artist Podcast

Tintamarre is back with Season 2! Kicking the season off is a conversation with Florence based painter, Andrew Smaldone. We began our conversation discussing studio habits and we touched on the role of coaches and practicing. Born 1978 in Denver, Colorado, Andrew Smaldone has shown his work widely in Europe, the US and the UK. He completed an MA in Fine Art from Central Saint Martins, in London in 2005 and a BA in Fine Art from The George Washington University, in Washington D.C. in 2001. Smaldone’s recent works focus both on surface and space, a process he initiated in 2016 during his first sabbatical for scholarly research afforded him for winning a Pollock Krasner Foundation Grant in 2015. In addition to his artistic practice, Smaldone began writing about art in 2005 when he co-founded artist-run magazine ArtSEEN Journal. He became professor of painting & drawing at Santa Reparata International School of Art in 2007 and the institution’s Academic Dean in 2012.
