In this episode we talk to Director of Cultural Services, City of Eugene, Isaac Marquez, about his journey of becoming director of the city's cultural programming by way of his position as Public Art Manager, the staging of a comprehensive visual arts festival, and the contentions of the art community of a small city: high and low, performing arts and visual arts, old guard and new initiatives. We come up against issues of scale, and the proximity of the full spectrum of art in a small city. Changing the conversation, one step at a time means asking "what can we do with what we have?" We learn about the value of persistence and patience, can-do enthusiasm and burnout. We hear ideas on how to get critical discourse going, the artist’s skill-set, and what it takes to grow art and culture in a small city. Pro tips? Isaac has them - Emotional intelligence, smart partnerships, humility and willingness to collaborate and recognize your own strengths and weaknesses. He also discusses the pitch and the process, and letting people in to your world. What about marketing and social media as the voice of the artist, the importance of being able to talk about your work, “ruining your market,” and other issues with branding? We hit it all. Other topics include the particularities of public art, how to be a lucrative artist by selling t-shirts and promoting each other, cover bands, and a fiendishly genius move by artist Rebecca Morgan involving a jug and a state fair.

Bottleracks & Fountains Ep 1: Big City vs Small Town In this inaugural episode we introduce ourselves, and talk about our personal experiences and thoughts on making art in big cities and small towns. We get a brief history of Eugene Contemporary Art, which is directed by co-founder Courtney Stubbert, and emerged out of the need for a contemporary arts initiative that was lacking in this town of under 200k. We talk about the various conversations around contemporary art in places like New York in comparison to towns like Eugene, and the burden and blessing of working in a context where the general public isn’t necessarily keyed in to the discourse. Art in small towns: How do you do it? How do you fuck it up? How do you make it fun and not get burned out or tired? We suspect that a lot of the issues and concerns of making conceptually engaged art in small towns are similar no matter where you go, and reaches beyond our particular experiences. In this episode we lay the groundwork for what we want to find out from the people working in the field in different places around the nation and in our town. What is it that supports work that is culturally and critically engaged? How do the politics, logistics and environment of a place influence what kind of work gets made? How do you make “serious” art outside of metropolitan areas? Why do you have to move to New York, LA, or Chicago, to do serious work? The flipside of this discussion is of course: How do you create work that is accessible and that doesn’t make people feel stupid or like they don’t get it? We also briefly touch on being your own gallerist, decentralizing the art world, and creating visibility for many different kinds of artmaking through social media. We consider how the internet is a driver of art, and how that affects the work being made. Your hosts: Courtney Stubbert Julia Oldham Agnese Cebere Josiah Martens Music by Pinball Jukebox

Hey pod-followers!  I'm launching a new Artist Initiative and could use your help.  Please check out the following link for the podcast of my initiative, GenToGen: http://www.podomatic.com/profile/gentogenla ...and/or view the info below (and make sure you scroll down to check out the call for Artists). Thank you! ***** √ Please vote (voting ends March 31st)! http://www.thenextbigjewishidea.com/ideas/entry/gentogen Support our campaign for The Next Big Jewish Idea! As Jews we believe in Tikkun Olam – repair the world. As Artists, we practice Hiddur Mitzvah – adorn/make beautiful the mitzvah. As Jewish Artists we hold to the idea that Art can, and will, repair the world… …And we feel we have the BIG Idea that will provide the Next Generation of Jewish Artists with a sustainable way to put these ideas in to practice. GenToGen is a three-tiered project encompassing intergenerational and trans-denominational Jewish community engagement, support for working artists, and the development of an Arts-focused Jewish communal living paradigm that can then be recreated in other cities to support Jewish Artists. Our pilot city is the Eastside of Los Angeles due to its rich Jewish history, its emerging Artist community and the ratio of Jews in this area in relation to CA at large.  We aim to accomplish this through a multivalent approach phased out over several years by first creating a virtual hub for Jewish artists to network & collaborate via a media-rich podcast, then through providing a community-based Arts education center which will serve as a physical hub and then by ultimately creating an affordable & cooperative, permanent live/work-space based on the history of the Kibbutz and Lower Eastside New York cooperative housing for emerging Jewish Artists.
