Amy Beecher is a visual artist working in installation, digital imaging, sound, and text. In 2013 she created a podcast, The Amy Beecher Show, as an excuse to invite people to her 160 square foot Brooklyn apartment. She's since moved, and The Amy Beecher Show has moved with her. Like an easily amazed and distracted therapist, Beecher opens doors to the inner workings of her subject's artistic lives, inviting guests to reflect on their work, their process, and, mostly, everything else.

MINI EPISODE with NYC Crit Club
NYC Crit Club is a misleading name for the collaborative learning program that Catherine Haggarty and Hilary Doyle founded five years ago. A) You can take classes with them from anywhere in the world B) it's super inclusive (affordable!)- less a club, more a gathering. I'm teaching there in the spring and Mira Fucking Schor is teaching there in the fall..two icons! Listen on for more info. Enrollment opens August 15th.
NYC Crit Club Fall 2022 Courses
PS: We don't usually do #ads because that would break from this pod's brand of time consuming and unprofitable that Amy has built over so many years. But NYC Crit Club is great, worth the exception. #intentional #plug.

EPISODE 43: Drawing on the Walls with Jaqueline Cedar
If I could listen to a podcast and sing The Wheels On the Bus at the same time, I would listen to this week’s re-release of my conversation with Jackie Cedar, painter and founder of Good Work Gallery. I recorded it with her during the pandemic, before Ben…the cognitive equivalent of a scene you vaguely remember from a movie you once saw….
