Art Pros Podcast

This week, the Art Pros dive deep into the world of art history's favorite people: privileged white male artists. In today's art world, the shift in access and power has just begun, and our previous kings of art are beginning to feel the effects of social justice. Artists are becoming Justin Bieber impersonators, and the sons of presidents are even making backdoor deals overseas for their performance art. Please join us for this special fireside chat, and bring your smore supplies because today we're gonna have a fun roast.[More on [www.artprospodcast.com] • follow us on IG @paid.artists [instagram.com/paid.artists] • donate to our patreon at patreon.com/artprospodcast • email us [artprospodcast@gmail.com] Join our Discord and post your recommendations for episodes, news articles, memes, or any stories if you want some extra company ----->[Discord]

When was the last time you put your hands in the air and waved them like you just don't care? In this episode, this is exactly what the Art Pros did. Does art have to be so serious all the time? Does making smart art make you a better artist? We don't always think so. So come have some fun with us, let your hair down and let's live a little. This week, Gage and Renz talk about how important it is to have fun when you make art. Gage comes out as a capitalist, Renz's recording sounds horrible because he accidentally pointed his mic backwards. Donkey from “Shrek” might be a republican. Renz thinks Drake's album cover sucks and Gage thinks he probably got it from Fiverr.So if you think you need a little vacation from all the hard work you've been doing, then you deserve it. Kick it with the Art Pros, queue this episode up, sit back and enjoy the vibes!

It's been a long summer interns. Here's a new episode. This week the art pros end their hiatus(we have lives!) and talk about accessibility in the art world.

We also talk about:Cake art, Neil Degrasse Tyson Chicken Nuggets, the Mark Wahlberg question, Xbox Dos Equis, Dababy, and more. We swear all of it makes sense together and is on topic. Welcome back to the world's most inconsistent internship in the world. Want to become an art professional?

Pssst hey, wanna make some money off the blockchain with your art?In this epic conclusion to the Art Professionals Podcast “nOn-FuNgIbLe ToKen” arc, the Renz and Gage offer some much needed clarity. In this episode we address the ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF CRYPTOCURRENCY, the publication costs i.e. ETHEREUM GAS FEES, and potential unique use-cases for the non-fungible token(feet pic algorithm anyone?) While NFTs could be your ticket to gravy-town (as demonstrated by the artist Beeple’s meteoric rise to be one of the most valuable living artists on the planet) there are some significant drawbacks. Anyways...if you want to hear about Renz’s blockchain business model, the ESPN rockchain technology, and our insight on how to get money as an artist, check out this episode. It might confuse you. It might enlighten you. There’s only one way to find out. You will sound smarter after this episode. You will be learned. Listen to our episode, learn more about NFT’s, and earn that LAMBO BAYBEEEEEEEEEEEE! **It's important to note that while NFTs were popularized as part of the ETH ecosystem, there are other coins/ blockchain solutions that may or may not cost less, for example, Cardano(ADA) is a blockchain tech that can support NFTs with coins much cheaper than ETH, however, ETH based marketplaces will reasonably have more people and more capital to buy your art with. This is not covered in the episode.If you want to mint an NFT as a cryptonoob, we found opensea.io to be the most straightforward platform.[More on [www.artprospodcast.com] • follow us on IG @paid.artists [instagram.com/paid.artists] • donate to our patreon at patreon.com/artprospodcast • email us [artprospodcast@gmail.com]Join our Discord and post your recommendations for episodes, news articles, memes, or any stories if you want some extra company ----->[Discord]

Are you a digital artist? Do you want to become a rich, and successful digital artist, and do you want it to happen FAST? If you do, then you’ve come to the right place because we’re here to tell you that it probably won’t happen. We’re sorry. We’re so sorry that we want to help, because we know that it’s possible and we’ll tell you how in this episode. If you want to have a chance at getting rich FAST with your digital art, you probably want to look into NFTs. It’s not too late, because someone told us It’s Never Too Late. NFTs are the premiere way to become a millionaire with digital art faster than you can speed dial your mom to tell her you just bought her a new Tesla Cybertruck because you’ve become a modern artist. NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token. A Non-Fungible Token is a cryptographic token that represents a unique item that serves as proof of ownership. Non-Fungible tokens provide proof of ownership through blockchain technology, which is the same technology that Bitcoin uses. Bitcoin is worth tens of thousands of dollars, because of blockchain technology. If you’ve ever wanted to get stupid rich from Bitcoin or anything similar, this episode might interest you. It might confuse you. It might enlighten you. There’s only one way to find out. You will sound smarter after this episode. You will be learned. The internet is the new oyster of the world, and the ocean is waiting for you to dive more than knee deep into it. Listen to our episode, learn about NFT’s, and earn that pearl. Mommy will be proud of you.

Watch your fingers because this episode is HOT. The Art Pros are MAD in this episode. We’re MAD because of all the fake organizations that treat equitable practice like it's a fad. We’re mad because we feel like some organizations' hiring practices feel like big virtue signaling energy. The Art Pros are all for justice, but when so many people who used to not care about inclusivity start to suddenly care, things get a little weird. We're here to set the record straight as great Allies to our BIPOC and Underrepresented people because our mission is to stand up for human rights even if it doesn't directly affect us, and not-uh, we aren't trying to virtue signal so if you criticize us, were gonna get really defensive so please don't, please?This week the Art Pros podcast about Shady Non-Profits on #metoo, the lucrative Diversity Mercenary career path, weird old people who treat equitable hiring like its a game of Wokémon, updated 'how to find grants for artists,' the controversial name even worse than Satan McBadguy, and the 10 million dollar college diversity budget.Finally, check out our friend Benjamin L.M.’s New virtual exhibit Roots of Innocence:[https://www.artavita.com/virtual_exhibitions/424][More on [www.artprospodcast.com] • follow us on IG @paid.artists [instagram.com/paid.artists] • donate to our patreon at patreon.com/artprospodcast • email us [artprospodcast@gmail.com]

How come Grimes was able to get her record label; CRYSTAL MATH RECORDS, INC, a sweet grant of $90k from the Canadian Government? Believe it or not the Art pros have some experience writing grants that actually get artist projects PAID for, and in this episode we give our most common sense tips that may seem like DOY OF COURSE WHY DIDNT I THINK OF THAT, but you didn’t think of it and we did. We’re trying to get you FUNDED. Also we talk about some inventions and money-making ideas, like The LGBLT.

Do you think it’s ok for museums to sell artwork donated to them for public preservation in order to enact their own mission? Do you trust museums that profited off of marginalization in the past to be the leading voices of equity and inclusion? The Baltimore Museum of Art aka the BMA is auctioning off some art works. We get it, times are tough and they want money… The thing is when you DEACCESSION art from a tax-exempt museum (move it from public access into the hands of a private collector) ethical boundaries are in danger of being crossed. The BMA stated this 65 million dollars will be used to “increase staff salaries, eliminate admission fees for special exhibitions and offer evening hours in an effort to reach an under-served audience.” They’re also using 54.5 million as an Endowment for the “the care of the collection.” This week the Art Pros Podcast about the BMA, presenting both sides of the argument, the give-everyone-free-ca$h art performance, why we don’t trust museums, and the nitty gritty of institutional activism. The art is for the people not the institution, but is the institution for the people? Find out in this week's episode of the Art Professionals Podcast.

This week the Art Pros podcast about the art of magicians, the ultimate performance artists. Mastering such concepts as sleight of hand, and straight up LYING TO YOUR FACE, magicians carry all the traits desired in an excellent artist//criminal. If you want to learn how to be a better artist, consider studying stage magic. At the intersection of art, craft, mysticism, and performance lies the stage magician. These mind-boggling stunts-men prove that art is a competition, and they may just have the edge to beat out the rest of us…Or not who knows. Here’s a pod where Renz and Gage talk about the intersection of art and magic for ten minutes. Do us a favor and check it out real quick. I heard that Stage Magicians pay their assistants....[More on [www.artprospodcast.com] • follow us on IG @paid.artists [instagram.com/paid.artists] • donate to our patreon at patreon.com/artprospodcast • email us [artprospodcast@gmail.com]

This week the Art Pros podcast about hustle culture, Positive Vibes, and Big Body Whippin with the musician Mxhxrajah, aka Sid.

Who needs graduate school or an MFA when you have THE ART PROS PODCAST. For a fraction of the price we can sit around and give any artist of any medium an highly reasoned opinion noone wanted or needed. In this weeks episode The Art Pros demonstrate what a REAL art CRITIQUE from a REAL ART PROFESSIONAL looks like. Aside from absolutely roasting the heady, esoteric, and EXTREMELY BASED 43 page textbook that is Santi’s work The gang figures out the role of art in SOCIETY, Which artist is most like Keanu Reeves, the best aspects of american culture, Why politics are all jacked up, the Counterops aka Art TERRORISM of Brad Troemel, And why is Jeff Koons so Masculine?The Art Pros welcome onto the podcast @Pl0xi_the_ars0nist on instagram aka Santi, aka Santiago Corredor-Vergara. Santi is an artist who reached out to us, at the Art Pros, for his very own professional Art Critique. Santi sent us a 43 page document, and after spending our 15 minutes of research on it we proceed to completely misrepresent the point of his art...or we help him begin to round out his ideas? We’re not really sure. Anyhow, we give him a good ol fashion formal critique, on his DANGEROUSLY RADICAL ideas. Santi is conflicted about painting, is not against defining utopia, and incredibly big brained, including the use of the words “rationalism”. “Meta-fiction”, “internet”, and “memes” when talking about art. If you love Santi and are sick of the Art Pros Podcast you can check out the pod he cohosts at the following link. [Susi and the Tankies] Susi and the Tankies is a casual political commentary podcast that will probably give you some class consciousness, insight on international affairs, and de-radicalize any centrists who've been grilling just a little too long.If you like what we on the Art Pros do, check out the following links: [More on [www.artprospodcast.com] • follow us on IG @paid.artists [instagram.com/paid.artists] • donate to our patreon at patreon.com/artprospodcast • email us [artprospodcast@gmail.com]ALERT: Cybervote Patriotista Chapter 1 is out now at artprospodcast.com/cyber-vote-patriotista

We ARE BACK. This week the Art Pros Podcast about their new lives, Gage is in a new studio and Renz is a NEW FATHER...or Dog Daddy. The Art Pros spend some time discussing CHAZ/CHOP...the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone. The hope of the free world...or is it?

Whats Up everyone, It is the producers of the Art Pros Podcast. Today we have a special treat and little change of pace for y'all.

We have decided to make public our VERY REAL Netflix Pitch for a new anime: Cyber Vote Patriotista. Take a step into the very PROFESSIONAL writer's room, as Gage and Renz flesh out what they expect to be deemed, the greatest Anime of all time. As something of Anime nerds or... Weebs if you will, we figure that we could come up with an incredible anime. It is a shounen set in the White House.

Imagine being a humble boomer, excited about your new ability to use Zoom™ that took you a mere 6 meetings to figure out. You no longer need the help of the pompous younger generations and it is empowering. You have mastered Zoom™, the premiere online platform for video conferencing that has taken internet headlines by storm. Your significant other can now turn to you for help when they desperately wonder why “they cant hear/see me,“ because you’ve courageously found the settings and studied them one quiet night. Now imagine your first meeting with your brand new abilities. The local neighborhood association is planning a porch promenade. You are comfortable and confident that everyone can hear and see you. You may even be giving advice to someone in your group. “Did you click the camera icon?,” you ask. Now Imagine what it must feel like to have that all ruined by the most deplorable act of “Zoombombing,” in which an online terrorist hacks public Zoom™ meetings, takes control of the room, and posts lewd images that are filled with hate, and the most disgusting images you do not want to imagine. This week, the Art Pros podcast about e-Terrorists and Grilling. Are charbroiled steaks the diplomatic answer to unify a country? Did Zoombombers make a mistake by starting a war with Boomers?? Could Shrimps on the Barbie be the olive branch that puts an end to all this madness?!?!?! Find out this week on the Art Pros Podcast! (This episode is best enjoyed with an ice cold beer.)

This week the Art Pros attempt to tackle the U.S. ECONOMY. The world is in Shambles, the STONKS ARE GOING DOWN. The Art Pros Podcast about "wtf is an Negative Interest Rates" and how does that affect poor people? We find that for us small-brained artists, how an "economy" works is lost on us. Do we trust the Billionaire Warren Buffet or do we trust Donald Trump? We don't understand much beyond student loans so we have to look to leaders like Keaunu Reeves to form our opinions. When the common population, even those with a "higher education" have very little concept of how our resource distribution system functions, it makes that population ripe for exploitation, for manipulation. But the art pros don't care about that, we just want to paint pretty pictures...all the way until our government forces us into our universal-basic-5'x5' windowless boxes, eating soylent, and never accumulating resources and influence in order to have a say in the function of our society...Right? We love you guys.[More on www.artprospodcast.com • follow us on IG @paid.artists • donate to our patreon at patreon.com/artprospodcast • email us artprospodcast@gmail.com]

This week's episode is a bit of a change of pace and a real treat for people who are thinking about pursuing art, but haven't taken the plunge. Benjamin L.M. is an Australian artist, and this episode's guest. He loves the classics ,most people who have studied art in school have thought about, Cezanne, Gauguin, Picasso, and Van Gogh among others. The thing that makes him so exciting is that he didn't study art, he grabbed art-making by the horns after seeing a traveling show and discovering that paintings in real life are actually alot cooler than how they look in books. He became infatuated with art 14 years ago, and now nearing the middle of his life, is expressing himself through any outlet he can; fashion collections, painting, books, music, and now PODCASTS! Benjamin is a soulful guy and a true inspiration to push yourself as a human, to be creative, productive, happy, and motivated. If you wanted to listen to the Art Pros sh*t on art like we normally do...this is not the episode, but if you want to hear Benjamin, a later-in-life creator who is swinging for the fences, truly encapsulate the romance of making art as a state of being... this is the right place. We will be back with the real art world critique hours shortly.Benjamin L.M. is auctioning his work right now, "We're more like Angels than Monkeys" through Art Market Place, go check it out.Benjamin L.M.Auction[https://bit.ly/3ekHWMs]Website[https://www.benjaminlm.com]Fashion[https://www.redbubble.com/people/benjaminlm7/shop]The Art Pros[More on www.artprospodcast.com • follow us on IG @paid.artists • donate to our patreon at patreon.com/artprospodcast • email us artprospodcast@gmail.com]

This week the Art Pros give some Art Hacks, some Tips and Tricks on how to really level up your work, and how to become a better artist. We talk a little bit about “Point-of-View” and how to harness the power of it. What is the point of view? What different ways can we use it to get MAXIMUM GAINZ in our work? How many different ways can you talk about a banana? Using Edward Hopper, Kara Walker, Anish Kapoor, and Jeff Koons as some of our examples we invite you to take a dive, interns, into gaining a new perspective on...the “Point of View”.[More on www.artprospodcast.com • follow us on IG @paid.artists • donate to our patreon at patreon.com/artprospodcast • email us artprospodcast@gmail.com]

This week the Art Pros Podcast with Bailey Race AKA @raileybaceprints. Bailey is our resident professional illustrator friend, and bonafide paid artist in the music industry. He is our first return guest and in today's episode, recorded among the moonlit twilight, the Art Pros set the groundwork for their own apocalyptic young adult fiction complete with knife combat. Bailey schools us, naive illustrators, with his tips and tricks for Professional Development post-covid-19. We try to escape our boredom through a portal formed with black magic, a Virtual reality headset, and sheer will. When that fails to work we chat about the advent of Artificial Intelligence, the degenerate foot fetish, the "value" of online classes, and when Child Labor is ok. Bailey has begun live streaming his illustration, he may even be working on a TOP SECRET Luigi Poster.Check Bailey's work out on instagram [@raileybaceprints]or at [twitch.tv/raileybaceprints]or on his site [bailey-race.com]Check out the Art Pros Podcast on instagram [@paid.artists] or at patreon [patreon.com/artprospodcast] or if you're a new listener check out some of our back catalogue, at least half of it is worth checking out. We might even say some naughty gamer words if you look hard enough.

The Art Pros Podcast is Live with Hannah and Jeff of The Fountain Institute. Master educators, expert designers, and contemporary meme crafters, the Fountain Institute brings to the table a wealth of knowledge. If you notice something buggy with the episode, it may be because we podded with our first INTERNATIONAL GUESTS. Hannah joined all the way from Germany, while Jeff, stuck in Texas (pretty much a different nation), hopped on the mic as well. Somehow, Gage and Renz were able to trick them into this free consultation webinar. This week the art pros and The Fountain Institute share insight on remote learning, the divergence of art and design, what even is a designer, and the most important question of all, is Jerry Saltz actually a decent guy? Is it more important to think creatively or know hard skills in the Art world? Being on the Art Pros is almost like giving a talk at SXSW...right? The Fountain Institute was all about decentralized learning before it was cool, and they have a little bone to pick with scammy master classes. If you thought your webcam college class on crocheting was "actually kind of decent" you will find this episode of the Art pros to at least be that decent too.

This week, the Art Pros talk about the CARE act and how you may actually qualify for unemployment benefits. Things get out of control quickly as Renz starts to lose his noodles due to an apparent quarantine overdose. Gage does his best to help his dear co-host recover but the adverse effects of quarantine have gotten the best of him as well. In an incredible turn of events, Gage snaps back to reality and finishes the pod off strong, delivering the content we artists need to get paid or die trying. How can we unite with our tax credits to take down the Big Bad Business Boys? Can a ten million dollar gallery show shift the narrative of our economic future? What is the CARES act, and does the government really CARE???? Find out this week on The Art Pros Podcast!

This week, the Art Pros have discovered how to podcast remotely since we are both believers of the Stay at Home movement. Our priority will always be to promote the safety and well being of you, your fam, your partna’ and your squad. With that said, we decided to focus this week’s topic on how Covid-19 is affecting all of us, especially the art world because sometimes you just need to get it out of your system. With our technological savvy put to the test, the Art Pros pushed forth with gripping discussions on the term “China Virus,” tips on working remotely as Art Professionals, quarantine culture and contagion in general. This episode covers many bases and we hope at the very least that you can enjoy it enough to distract you from the coronavirus. Just be mindful not to laugh so hard that coffee bursts out of your nose because you may end up coughing, too and THAT is a huge faux pas these days.

Despite COVID-19 aka Aunty Rona's spring visit, the show must go on! This week, in our two-part episode, the Art pros Podcast is welcoming the special guest Kai[redacted] and his entourage the eloquent and elegant Jennifer[redacted]Kai is sky high, military-trained, poetic, and unapologetically enlightened, with a breadth of knowledge ranging from the social design in Baltimore, Japanese washrooms, our Jung-Ian culture-consciousness, Lil Wayne, the RZA, and the juke jams, sad clown artists, supposed "folk-lore", boot-shit, and so much more. This man deserves a dang TONY TONY TONY and trust that theatrics are Kai's bread and butter. Ultimately this pod demonstrates that: when America imagines its new golden boy it should be less golden retriever and more BLACK SWAN. If you'd like to listen to our second part, it is available on our Patreon because the second half is just too spicy.

Human smoothie, but you could also get the beginning inklings of what the Dyyo Live! Ensemble sounds like. We absolutely love this dude, and the album. Dyyo talks about execution, some of his musical contemporaries who are pushing Baltimore music in a new direction, getting pigeon holed, how to "Do You Young One" and possibly most controversially, how you put a giraffe into a fridge.

This is not our last episode ever. We're just taking a month off to develop season too to be better, stronger, smoother and more educational. We've gone 33 straight weeks producing content, which we could not have done without the support of our listeners and patrons aka "the Interns." Think of this as a little Fall vacation before we get back to class. We can't overload everyone's brains with too much information without letting it sink in. You know what they say, a child's mind is like a Sham-Wow and we like to think we're responsible for our Intern's content consumption. If it's not already clear, we really do appreciate any and all support that we have received over this wild first season. We will continue to post other content while we work out our new process for next season. Please keep your eye out for the next season! Happy Holidays, and Much Love!
