John Armleder revient à Genève : plongez dans “Soubresauts”, une rétrospective majeure Jusqu'au 7 janvier, Genève devient le centre de l'art contemporain avec “Soubresauts”, la première exposition commerciale de John Armleder dans la ville depuis plus de dix ans. Cette rétrospective exceptionnelle, organisée par les galeries Olivier Varenne et Lovay Fine Arts, offre une plongée unique dans l'univers de cet artiste emblématique, à travers une sélection de dessins, gouaches et collages. Avec une carrière s'étendant sur six décennies, des années 1960 à aujourd'hui, Armleder explore dans “Soubresauts” des thèmes centraux tels que le hasard, la spontanéité et une approche originale mêlant abstraction et expressionnisme. Chaque œuvre témoigne de l'expérimentation constante et de l'introspection d'un artiste qui n'a jamais cessé de repousser les limites de la création. Balthazar Lovay, fondateur de la galerie Lovay Fine Arts, nous guide à travers cette exposition captivante, révélant les moments clés de la carrière d'Armleder et les histoires derrière certaines de ses pièces les plus marquantes.

Ep.222 José Parlá (b.1973) creates paintings and multidisciplinary works based on his interest in hybrid forms of abstraction. He draws inspiration from various mediums including music, calligraphy, dance, and the decay of urban architecture and advertisements. His works poetically challenge ideas about language, politics, identity, and how we define places and spaces. Parlá's relationship with mark-making is physical and textural, incorporating the body's gestures into a painterly stream of consciousness composed of areas of addition, erasure, and layering that challenge the status quo of visual culture. Parlá was born to Cuban parents in Miami, Florida, and lives and works out of Brooklyn, New York. He studied painting at Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD) in Savannah, Georgia; the New World School of the Arts, Miami, Florida; and Miami Dade College, Miami, Florida. Solo exhibitions of Parlá's work have been organized at institutions such as The Bronx Museum, New York (2022); Gana Art Center, Seoul (2022); Istanbul'74, Istanbul (2019); Hong Kong Contemporary Art (HOCA) Foundation, Hong Kong (2019); Neuberger Museum of Art, New York (2018); SCAD Museum of Art, Savannah (2017); Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), New York (2017); Goss-Michael Foundation, Dallas (2016); High Museum of Art, Atlanta (2015); amongst others. Public arts projects include permanent large-scale commissions including Far Rockaway Writer's Library, a collaboration between Snøhetta and Parlá, New York (2023); University of Texas, Austin (2018); ONE World Trade Center, New York (2015); A collaboration with Snøhetta, Hunt Library at North Carolina State University, Raleigh (2013); Barclays Center, New York (2012); Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), New York (2012); Concord City Place, Toronto (2010). Select group exhibitions and biennials include The Culture: Hip Hop & Contemporary Art in the 21st Century, Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore (2023); Brooklyn Abstraction, Four Artists, Four Walls, Brooklyn Museum, New York (2022); Reflections, Gana Art, Seoul (2019); Glasstress, Fondazione Berengo Art Space, Venice (2019); Beyond the Streets, New York (2019); Yasiin bey: Negus, Brooklyn Museum, New York (2019); Victors for Art, University of Michigan Museum of Art, Ann Arbor (2017); Post No Bills: Public Walls as Studio and Source, Neuberger Museum of Art, New York (2016); Seeing, Saying, Images and Words, Van Every/Smith Galleries, Davidson College, North Carolina (2016); Wrinkles of the City: Havana Cuba: JR & José Parlá, the Havana Biennial, Havana (2012); amongst others. Parlá's work is in several public collections including the Brooklyn Museum, New York; The British Museum, London; Buffalo AKG Art Museum, New York; El Espacio, Miami; POLA Museum of Art, Japan; Pérez Art Museum Miami, Florida; The Gordon Parks Foundation, Pleasantville, NY; The Neuberger Museum of Art, New York; and The National Museum of Fine Arts, Havana.

Jewellery can enthral us in many ways: it can delight, inspire and uplift us or it can transport us to the place where we acquired it. It can also make us avaricious or jealous. But why? What explains our enduring fascination with shiny metal and colourful stones?Iszi Lawrence is joined by Dr. Emily Stoehrer, Senior Curator of Jewelry at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and author of several books on American jewellery and fashion; Dr. Petra Ahde-Deal, a Finnish gemmologist and jeweller who currently lectures at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden and at the DIS Study Abroad Program in Copenhagen; Emefa Cole, jewellery maker originally from Ghana who is also the Curator of Diaspora Jewellery at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London; Mansi Rao, Curator of the South Asia Collection in Norwich and World Service listeners.Some of the questions discussed include: gold has been the top choice both for jewellery makers and for buyers in many cultures all over the world. But there are similar metals which are more scarce - and more expensive - than gold, so it's not exclusivity that makes it popular. And why do men wear flamboyant jewellery at some Indian weddings?

Episode Description: In this episode of the podcast, host Mark Baratto sits down with artists Helen and Ben Harrison to uncover the captivating story behind their renowned Harrison Gallery on White Street. What begins as a conversation about art quickly sails into an extraordinary tale of adventure and craftsmanship. "In the 1970s, my husband, Ben, and I spent four years building a thirty-eight-foot sailboat in Costa Rica—a massive project for two gringos in a foreign country. Starting with a bare hull, we designed and constructed this giant sculptural object of functional art using self-taught traditional wood techniques that set the stage for my present work. While traveling and living aboard—which we did for 11 years—I began my transition from boatwork to sculpture." — Helen Harrison Join us as we explore how their life at sea became the foundation for their artistic endeavors, leading to the establishment of a local institution that showcases some of the finest fine art in Key West. Read About Their Journey: Sailing Down The Mountain: A Costa Rican Adventure About Harrison Gallery: Located in the southernmost city in the continental United States, Harrison Gallery has become a Key West staple, earning a reputation as a destination for exceptional fine art. Opened by Helen and Ben Harrison in 1986, this privately owned and operated art studio represents a select group of artists whose work, alongside the Harrisons', creates a uniquely personal and unforgettable artistic experience.

Partiendo de una realidad política que es, al mismo tiempo, artística y cultural, el libro Ars Hasburgica revisa el concepto historiográfico del Renacimiento. Hasta hace unos años, este periodo se entendía desde una perspectiva geográficamente italocéntrica, muy próxima al lenguaje clásico y políticamente centrada en la idea de las "artes nacionales" y las "escuelas regionales". Sin embargo, los últimos estudios certifican que el Renacimiento es un fenómeno global y complejo. Esta publicación ofrece una visión del arte que estudia el papel desempeñado por la dinastía de los Habsburgo y sus diversas cortes, intentando verificar si, al aplicar otros modelos historiográficos y al tener como enfoque el arte de la Casa de Austria, las ideas tradicionales pueden defenderse ante la comprensión del pasado en el siglo XXI. Los editores mencionan el llamado "paradigma de Vasari" que, en gran medida, es el fundamento para la historia del arte del siglo XVI escrita a lo largo de los últimos siglos. La publicación también busca definiciones de los fenómenos artísticos, no tanto en torno a naciones e identidades de las artes, sino planteando estos temas a través de ideas relacionadas con la Corte como esfera política, artística y cultural, partiendo de los estudios de Norbert Elias, Amedeo Quondam o Carlo Ossola.  Miguel Ángel Zalama es Catedrático y director del Departamento de Historia del Arte en la Universidad de Valladolid (España), así como director del Centro Tordesillas para las Relaciones con América Latina. Tras concluir la tesis doctoral. realizó estancias tanto en el Institute of Fine Arts de la Universidad de Nueva York, donde trabajó con Jonathan Brown, así como en la Universidad de La Sapienza en Roma, en la Université Catholique de l'Ouest, Angers (Francia), y en la Universidad de Monterrey (México).  Fernando Checa, es Catedrático de Historia del Arte en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid. Ha sido Director del Museo Nacional del Prado (1996-2001), y Premio Nacional de Historia de España (1993). Ha comisariado exposiciones sobre la Casa de Austria en Madrid, Viena, París, Gante, Bruselas, Toledo o Puebla de los Ángeles (México). También ha sido Senior Fellow Paul Mellon en CASVA (Washington) y Profesor Visitante en la Université de Genève (Suiza) y en la Universidad Estatal de Oklahoma.  CINTER (Corte, Imagen, Nobleza y Territorio) es un grupo de investigación de la Universidad Rey Juan Carlos (https://www.proyectocinter.com/). La entrevista sobre la publicación Ars Habsburgica se realiza con Miguel Ángel Zalama, editor de la publicación, y Jesús Pascual Molina, autor de uno de los capítulos de la misma. Presenta Oskar J. Rojewski, profesor de Historia del Arte con especialización en el Arte Flamenco de la Baja Edad Media y el Renacimiento.

Ep.221 Shinique Smith. Known for her monumental fabric sculptures and abstract paintings of calligraphy and collage, Smith's personal histories and belongings intertwine with thoughts of the vast nature of ‘things' that we consume, cherish, gift, and discard and how these objects resonate on intimate and social scales. Over the last twenty years, Smith has gleaned visual poetry from textiles and explored concepts of ritual using breath, bunding and mark-making as tools toward abstraction. Her layered works range from palm-sized bundled microcosms to monolithic bales to massive chaotic paintings that contain vibrant and carefully collected mementos from her life. Smith's practice operates at the convergence of consumption and spiritual sanctuary, balancing forces and revealing connections across space and time, race, gender, and place to suggest the possibility of new worlds. Born in Baltimore, MD, currently residing in Los Angeles, California, Smith has received awards and prizes from Joan Mitchell, the Tiffany Foundation, Anonymous Was a Woman and the American Academy of Arts and Letters among others. Her work has gained attention through her participation in celebrated biennials and group exhibitions including the 13th Bienal de Cuenca and 8th Busan Biennale; Frequency at the Studio Museum in Harlem, 30 Americans organized by the Rubell Family Collection, UnMonumental at the New Museum and Hauser + Wirth LA's Revolution in the Making. Smith's work has also been exhibited and collected by other prestigious institutions such as the Baltimore Museum of Art; Brooklyn Museum of Art; California African American Museum, Denver Art Museum, the Frist, Indianapolis Museum of Art at Newfields, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Minneapolis Art Institute, MOMA PS1, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal, Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art, SCAD, the Ringling Museum of Art, the Whitney and the Guggenheim.

How can design help to make our failing prisons fit for purpose? In this episode of Design Emergency, our cofounder, Alice Rawsthorn, discusses the design deficiencies of one of the most troubled areas of many societies, our prison systems, and what can be done to make them rehabilitative rather than brutalizing, with the British criminologist, Yvonne Jewkes..Yvonne, who is Professor of Criminology at the University of Bath, where she also teaches in the School of Architecture, has visited over a hundred prisons worldwide to assess why they are failing, how they can be improved, and what role design can play in that process. She has also advised on the design of new correctional facilities in the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand..In her recently published book, An Architecture of Hope, Yvonne explores the challenges confronting our overcrowded, underfunded, often understaffed prisons, while drawing on her research and practical experience to assess: “What we can do to make prisoners feel like people again, rather than like prisoners?”.We hope you'll enjoy this episode. You can find images of Yvonne and the prisons she refers to in her interview on our Instagram @design.emergency. Please join us for future episodes of Design Emergency when we will hear from other inspiring global design leaders who, like Yvonne, are tackling complex challenges and forging positive change..Design Emergency is supported by a grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts.

Send us a textTW: abuse, s*xual assaultLusu grew up in a Christian household, going to church but didn't understand her “borrowed faith.”She had a tough relationship with her parents due to verbal and physical abuse growing up. For university, Lusu moved to a different country for school and was sexually assaulted. She was in a very rough mental space. She wasn't going to church anymore and didn't want to. Then a random guy invited her to church. She was hesitant at first, but eventually went to a church event that changed her life.Lusu rededicated her life to Jesus and was baptized in May 2019. After becoming a Christian, she still faces difficulties in life. And she has still has had trouble being fully obedient - feeling attached to the world, trying to have a full life outside of God. But God is faithful. Through His Word He reminded Lusu that with Him is life to the fullest. Even on bad days, they're not really that bad because she has the Lord.Also with having God, Lusu has experienced restoration and forgiveness - she now has a better relationship with father.She realized that God is working in the lives of people who hurt us. He's not just working in our own lives, but He's also working in the lives of those around us who might hurt us.Lusu's advice for people who aren't sure about Jesus: Reach out and find Him. Lusu also encourages us to pray for the global Church. As someone from Malawi, she talks about Malawian Christians - they don't have much money, but hold onto the Lord and are content.Thanks for listening!Resources:Luke 15:1-7 He leaves the 99 for the 1 lost sheepJeremiah 29:11 He has plans and a hope for usJohn 10:10 “A thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy.

Jammie Holmes in his Dallas studio, 2024. Photo by  Daisy Avalos Morning Thoughts takes its title from a 1981 Gil Scott-Heron song by the same name. Throughout the song's soft, spoken-word lyrics Scott-Heron meditates on the magical potential felt in the moment when night quietly turns to day—on the possibilities that radiate in the first light of morning, as the morning glory and daylily buds open. With his newest body of work, Holmes captures this moment of possibility alongside the inevitable moments of loss that follow as flowers wilt, as color seeps away—the dichotomy of morning and mourning. Underneath all of this,Morning Thoughts embodies the resilience of Holmes, of his community: morning glory and daylily flowers may wilt and die by dusk, but the plants and their roots remain.

The art world isn't limited to museums and galleries anymore, with pieces now embedded in courthouses across the country — from the majestic marble palace of the U.S. Supreme Court to landscapes urging conversations about climate change at the Byron White U.S. Courthouse in Denver.  How did we move away from serious images of Lady Justice and authoritative judges clad in black robes to swaths of color and happy trees? How did art get into the judicial system to begin with?In our penultimate episode this season, we bring you the artists who capture vivid portraits that honor state justices and attorneys not often memorialized in art and how courtroom sketches transcend photography to paint a picture of a defendant up close and personal or document moments of social change.Special guests:Roger Laux Nelson, a landscape artist with works in the 10th Circuit Court of AppealsXimena Velázquez-Arenas, an artist and attorneyTed Ellis, an artist and director of Florida State University's Civil Rights Institute Jennifer Gibson, director of the Center for Fine Arts at the General Services AdministrationDrew Alderson, manager of the Colorado Judicial Learning CenterJoan Kee, director of the Institute of Fine Arts at New York UniversityVicki Behringer, a courtroom sketch artistThis episode was produced by Kirk McDaniel.

What if a vivid dream could change not just your life, but the lives of countless women and children? That's exactly what happened to Susan Binkley, the founder of Blue Monarch. Join us for a heartfelt conversation with Susan as she shares her inspiring journey from a dream in 1995 to the creation of Blue Monarch in 2003. Despite having no experience in recovery work, Susan overcame her initial reluctance. Her unwavering obedience, faith, and determination led her to build a sanctuary that has reunited over 350 children with their mothers and helped women heal from severe trauma.In this episode, Susan opens up about the miraculous ways that God equipped her to start Blue Monarch and how he continues to sustain her. Listen as Susan reflects on a pivotal moment in 2012 that taught her the importance of serving rather than fixing people, a philosophy that has been crucial in preventing burnout among her team. We also discuss her book and the wealth of resources available on her website, offering listeners a comprehensive look into her impactful work at Blue Monarch. This episode is a testament to the power of obedience, faith, and the transformative impact of serving others. -Susan Binkley grew up in Tennessee and received a degree in Fine Arts from the University of Tennessee.  In addition to working as a professional artist, she owned and operated a horse farm and large boarding operation, developed unique vacation rentals, created a bakery/café, and established a granola manufacturing business.  In 2003, Binkley founded Blue Monarch, a Christ-centered, long-term residential recovery program for women and their children.  Blue Monarch has since become one of the most unique and successful recovery programs in the country with a strong emphasis on teaching women to parent sober and by focusing on the child's recovery as much as the mom's.  Since 2003, Blue Monarch has served nearly 1,000 women and children and over 350 children have been reunited with their mothers who had previously lost custody.Susan authored a collection of her personal Blue Monarch stories, “From My Front Row Seat,” which quickly became an Amazon bestseller in two categories: Inspirational Christianity and Christian Missions & Missionary Work. The stories are raw and authentic combined with surprising humor, considering the heavy subject matter.Binkley's awards include Women in American History Award from Daughters of the American Revolution, TIAA Difference Maker, and an Honorary Doctorate in Civil Law from the University of the South.  Susan lives with her husband, Clay, on the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee overlooking a state park.

Panet Buzz's panel 2024 SCORPIO episode, “0° PLANETS SEEDING NEW CONSCIOUSNESS”. “Pluto enters Aquarius for its 5th time on Nov 19 or 20 to stay for its 20-year cycle. Pluto by its nature involves an intensity of transformation because its needs go beneath the surface to remove what blocks the gems of life. Another words, to retrieve our true quality by removing, purging that which obstructs it through shadow work. However, any planet or point at the 0° degree evolves a new paradigm seeding sprouts of new consciousness,” said Sue Minahan, founder, and host of the weekly show. “Sedna entered Gemini for 50 years in April, and Haumea retrograded to 0 Scorpio in July of 2024 linger at a degree slowly moving through longer orbits. Mercury and Mars entered 0 degrees in November. Usually these inner planets orbit quickly but their ingress has adds extra significance because each extends their visit in signs during their retrograde coming up. Juno, Black Moon Lilith, and Pallas Athena add towards birthing 0° new seed consciousness this month.” Talk Cosmos Planet Buzz Panel connects with a myriad of new or returning Special Guest Panelists from around the USA and parts of the world.

At the King's Gallery, the museum that is part of Buckingham Palace, Drawing the Italian Renaissance offers a thematic journey through 160 works on paper made across Italy between 1450 and 1600. Ben Luke talks to Martin Clayton, Head of Prints and Drawings at the Royal Collection Trust, about the show.

They haunt our days and chill our dreaming nights, to paraphrase Emily Dickinson. There's not a population on earth that does not have its own unique monster stories to tell to frighten, but also to instruct on the nature of good and evil, right and wrong. But what happens when monsters get out of control, when the monstrous imagination starts to bleed over into the real world? What are the effects of monsters on real people's real lives?

What makes some people bounce back from adversity while others remain stuck? In this compelling episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, host Peter Winick welcomes resilience expert Deborah Gilboa. An author and consultant, Deborah helps organizations navigate change with confidence and competence. Her book, From Stressed to Resilient: The Guide to Handle More and Feel It Less, serves as a roadmap for individuals and teams seeking to enhance their resilience. Deborah's journey to thought leadership is as unconventional as her path to medicine. Initially pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a career in theater, she pivoted to medical school, where she spent years treating patients. Observing the stark differences in how individuals responded to illness prompted her to delve into the concept of "Patient Resilience." She aimed to redefine resilience beyond severe cases, exploring its application in everyday lives and discovering whether it can be cultivated. Transitioning from a practicing doctor to a thought leader began when Deborah was asked to speak about parenting at community events. What started as a way to connect with underserved populations evolved into a mission to educate parents, educators, and coaches about fostering resilience. As the inquiries grew, so did her focus on adult resilience, leading her to investigate effective methods for teaching these essential skills to adults facing their struggles. Deborah's business model centers on writing and speaking engagements. Recognizing the need for a platform, she built her online presence and leveraged her speaking skills to gain credibility. Companies often approach her to address change resistance within their teams. Through tailored workshops and a "Change Resistant Exam," she equips leadership with the tools to facilitate smoother transitions, ultimately fostering a culture of adaptability. Deborah's insights are vital for any organization looking to thrive in a rapidly changing environment. Three Key Takeaways: • Resilience is Learnable: Deborah emphasizes that resilience is not merely an innate trait; it can be cultivated and developed over time. Understanding what contributes to resilience can empower individuals and organizations to enhance their ability to navigate challenges. • Effective Communication is Crucial in Change Management: Organizations often struggle with change due to a lack of understanding of the natural resistance employees exhibit. Deborah teaches leaders how to communicate effectively about changes, ensuring that expectations are clear and that employees feel supported throughout the transition. • Speaking Engagements as a Gateway: Deborah's journey into thought leadership illustrates the power of speaking engagements. They serve as an entry point for organizations to experience her insights firsthand, ultimately leading to longer-term consulting relationships focused on building a resilient workforce. Doborah shares her journey of learning the need for a strong platform to leverage her skills and show credibility.  If you are struggling to build your platform we can help!  Contact the Thought Leadership Leverage team about a strategy session to take your first steps.
