Impending Cats

Back at it again with a new podcat! Nina & Erik return for a short (long) discussion about a mysterious artwork depicting a magical dream land where maybe a cigar is just a cigar and paint brushes and towers are just a cuddly kitten's wildest fantasy. And all the while, an impending latent loaf of liminal luv looms large in Nina's psyche. =/ᐠ・ᆽ・ᐟ\=

Delirium Tropicalia

As winter tightens its grasp on our souls, let us take you to a tropical land filled with squawking birds, orange juice and gravel. Forget about snow, the white stuff blanketing this magical world is something all together different. We discuss “Hélio Oiticica: To Organize Delirium”—the first major US retrospective of the artist (organized by the the Carnegie Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Whitney Museum of American Art). We also talk about Fischli & Weiss’ “Schneemann” outdoor sculpture. So there’s some schnow, but just a little bit.

Great EXPO-tations

Walk around EXPO CHGO with us! Artists notoriously love to hate art fairs and we are no exception. We spend a casual Saturday trying to find meaning in the most pointless of all the world's art fairs which is really saying something because all art fairs are pretty pointless. But hey, we had fun. Shoutout in particular to Spudnik Press for their letterpress coaster demonstrations.

Ineffective Bragging

Summer’s drawing to a close. And so we wistfully dream of Augusts past on this, the avant-est garde of podcasts. Thomas Hirschhorn and philosophical fan art, sneaky teens, Batman’s secret hotel, Nickelodeon auf Deutsch, bull semen, and Manifesta: the biennial backpacking through Europe after college instead of getting a job. So Whether you’re into rappin’ pandas or critiquin’ the flawed museography of bienialle model, there’s something here for you!

Worse Than Hotdogs

André has taken the unusual step of asking to appear before the Senate Subcommittee on Degenerate Funding for the Arts. Art on trial! After visiting the Whitney Biennial—portions of which remain on view through July 16—André has asked to appear before a joint session of podcast. And Lordy we have the tapes! Does the ‚"WhiBi" make, "an exciting, powerful case for art," featuring, "edgy, trending artists in 'turbulent' times," as its carefully selected pull quotes tout? Or is it just a bunch of baloney, "indulging in crass materialism and corporate cronyism?" Listen to Callot's testimony and find out! Artists Discussed: The one that made that painting, Pope.L aka William Pope.L, Occupy Museums (Arthur Polendo, Imani Jacqueline Brown, Kenneth Pietrobono, Noah Fischer, and Tal Beery), Andrea Fraser, André Callot, Hanne Darboven, Lyle Ashton Harris, Jordan Wolfson, Ulrike Müller

My Generation Stuff

Press junket! Curator Michael Darling gives an overview of Takashi Murakami's exhibition "The Octopus Eats Its Own Leg," followed by a conversation with the artist. Marc Ecko explains that access to merch is the highest form of art and Erik asks a question from the audience.

Respecfully Cynical

Hot off the pod! We visited the preview of Takashi Murakami’s exhibition “The Octopus Eats Its Own Leg” at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. We discuss isolationism, nationalism, adults telling teenagers the best use of their creativity is to participate in capitalism and pigeons getting it on in the park.

Manifesta Destiny

We kick out the jams with some live music in Berlin's Maurer (Wall) Park, a wonderful communist-era grove known for its love of Oasis hits. Erik is late to the final opening ceremony of the Sommerakademie at the Zentrum Paul Klee because he doesn't know the exchange rate between American minutes and European hours. Andre makes a prophetic prediction about the next project of Tania Bruguera. And instead of the Zurich edition of the roving European biennial, Manifesta, we discuss manifest destiny.
