    Cosplaying Cézanne

    Tim goes plein air painting, then casino gambling. Gina tries experiments with "alla prima antipasto" and holds paintings hostage... it's just another summer episode! Tim and Gina discuss asynchronous teaching, Donald Baechler's studio, Carol Rama, older female Artist gravitas, young hot pics of older Artists, making the algo pop, gratuitous artist birthday posts, annoying grants, being obsessed with your own paintings, Carol Bove at the Guggenheim, Nora Griffin and George Griffin at Fierman, the dominance of Agnes Martin, getting paid/not getting paid by galleries and other hijinks, and whether Gina knows what the statute of limitations is on copyright. Keeping it unstretched!
