  1. Breed Presents: Neil Wenman

    5D AGO

    Breed Presents: Neil Wenman

    We're kicking off a new series of Breed Presents – our fourth – and what better way to begin than with Neil Wenman, the Global Creative Director of Hauser & Wirth. Hauser & Wirth began as a gallery founded by Iwan and Manuela Wirth and Ursula Hauser in 1992. It's come quite a way since then and now represents over a hundred artists with gallery locations around the world. Our conversation took place looking out across the vista of London from the windows of his Mayfair office. That conversation took in Neil's achievements during 15 years at Hauser & Wirth, working with and for the artistic community it represents, Ursula magazine, and how he went from an early fascination with architecture to working at the centre of the artistic world. We also talked about his work with the arts and mental health charity Hospital Rooms, which commissions art for hospital spaces and provides art workshops for patients and NHS staff.

    SEASON 4 TRAILER

    Breed Presents: Season 4 - Returns Tuesday 12th May

    Breed Presents returns this Tuesday May 12th for Season 4. Olivia Triggs, host & founder of creative agency Breed, talks to people from all areas of the creative world, from artists to publishers, designers and more… those who've found their own very individual creative vocation. We're interested in what drives them, how they found their way into what they do, and their attitude towards the creative act. Among the guests we can hint at, without giving any names just yet, are people closely associated with Vanity Fair, It's Nice That, Hauser & Wirth, Black Crows, and Words, Sounds, Colors & Shapes.  New episodes - every Tuesday.

    Breed Presents: Catherine Fairweather

    In this episode of Breed Presents our guest is Catherine Fairweather, journalist, travel writer, editor and also a podcaster. Much of Catherine's professional life has been forged from her love of travel, of discovering new places and cultures and seeing firsthand how other people live. Over the years, Catherine has been a contributing editor at Condé Nast Traveller, Harper's Bazaar, the Financial Times, Air Mail and The Daily Telegraph. She then began podcasting and now hosts two podcasts: Voices from the Frontline, where she talks to people who work in high-risk combat zones all over the world and The Third Act, a podcast that looks at later life in a positive way through conversations with artists, explorers and actors. Catherine was the last interview we recorded for this season and it was so nice to round things off with a fellow podcaster, the first we've had on the series.

    Breed Presents: Dylan Jones

    Our guest for this edition of Breed Presents is Dylan Jones – writer, journalist, editor, and a man with a love of music. In fact, he's just released 1975: The Year the World Forgot.   Dylan is probably best known as the editor of GQ, a position he took on in 1999 and held for 22 years. He began his career in journalism in the early 1980s, joining i-D Magazine and rapidly rising to become its editor, while also working as a contributing editor at The Face.   Post GQ, Dylan has worked for The Observer and The Sunday Times and was editor-in-chief at The Standard, where he also interviewed and reviewed the likes of Van Morrison and the Sex Pistols. On top of that, he has edited and written more than two dozen books, including These Foolish Things: A Memoir which became the main focus of our conversation when we sat down together in London.   These Foolish Things Instagram

    Breed Presents: Justine Simons

    In this edition of Breed Presents we're talking to someone who it could easily be argued has had more influence on the cultural capital of London than any other individual in recent history – London's Deputy Mayor for Culture and the Creative Industries Justine Simons OBE. She was given that title by London Mayor Sadiq Khan in 2016, but she'd already been at the heart of support for the creative world under the previous two mayors, since 2002. Some of the projects she's overseen are: Trafalgar Square's Fourth Plinth, the 2012 Cultural Olympiad, founding the World Cities Culture Forum, establishing the London Borough of Culture and most recently developing the East Bank in Stratford. And that's just scratching the surface of her achievements and we touched on many more during this conversation.

Fee usually works with a dip pen and ink technique to create pieces that look simultaneously contemporary and steeped in the world of illuminated manuscripts, folklore and mythology.

    Breed Presents: Yolanda Edwards

    A few years back and the printed version of Breed Presents, we talked to Yolanda Edwards, founder and editor of YOLO Journal. YOLO Journal is a quarterly magazine that revels in the beauty of traveling to new places, focusing first on the photography and then on words in the form of personal stories and tips relating to each location.  The magazine is very much a personal project as Yolanda is its founder, publisher and editor as well as a contributor, and is a coming together of much of her previous experience that experience includes two periods working at Condé Nast Traveler, first as photo editor and then as creative director. So, we're delighted to welcome Yolanda back to Breed to speak to us about it. YOLO Journal - Website YOLO Journal - Instagram Yolanda Edwards - Instagram

    Breed Presents: Marina Willer

    For this episode we're very pleased to be talking to Marina Willer, at Pentagram London. Marina was born in Brazil, to artist parents, who encouraged an early interest in design and the visual arts. This eventually led her to move to London, where she studied graphic design at the Royal College of Art.  During her design career, she has been central to brand identity work. Her first love, however, has always been film, and she has pursued a parallel career as a filmmaker. Her first feature film was the documentary 'Red Trees' which came out in 2017 and used the story of her own family's escape from the Nazi occupation of Prague to explore today's refugee crisis I caught up with her at the Pentagram offices in Notting Hill, it's a conversation I loved.   Watch Red Trees: via Curzon Home Cinema.
