Den 18 mars 2021 bjöd Studentafton in Lars Vilks till en afton om den konstnärliga frihetens gränser. Moderator var Dan Jönsson, författare, kulturjournalist och kritiker vid flera svenska tidningar samt medarbetare på Sveriges Radio. Lars Vilks är känd för sitt skulpturala projekt Nimis i nordvästra Skåne och för Mohammed-karikatyrerna där profeten Mohammed tecknas som rondellhund. I podden pratar han bland annat om sin syn på konst som en mångtydig process där betraktarna är medskapare, om varför konst inte kan vara gränsöverskridande ständigt och om när frågan om konstens gränser förlorar sin poäng. Aftonen finns att se i sin helhet på Youtube. Tack till denna studentaftons sponsor – Broder Jakobs Stenugnsbageri. Under aftonen visas några bilder och konstverk. Nedan anges vilka bilder som visas vid respektive tidsangivelse.

Did you ever witness an event and say to yourself, “this is going to be a pivotal couple of minutes. History will remember this. Let’s take some pictures.” If you answered yes, you’re a psychic and a liar. We talk to The Museum of the City of New York's lead curator, Sara Seidman, who talks about the Stonewall and the photographic legacy of Fred W. McDarrah. And then, what happens when you mix Neon Coven, Julie Cooper, glitter, dancing, and a 19th Century poet? Oscar at the Crown is what.
Our guests this week, at the beginning of Pride Month, are Walker Vreeland and Timothy McDarrah. Walker Vreeland is an award-winning monologist and radio personality, producer, writer, actor, singer and voice-over artist. He is best known for having hosted The Afternoon Show on WBAZ out here, and as the creator and host of the podcast "Interview with the Artist," where he has interviewed such stars as Cyndi Lauper, Joy Behar, Betty Buckley, David Brenner, James Frey, Cheech Marin, Sandra Bernhard, and Jane Krakowski. He’s also been heard on WEHM. Walker is bringing his one-man show "From Ship to Shape" back to Bay Street Theater this month. Former magazine editor and gossip columnist Timothy McDarrah is a regular on the East End. His father, Fred W. McDarrah, is the iconic photographer who captured a generation of artists in their milieu (currently at the Parrish Art Museum), but also Tim will discuss the newly re-released "Pride: Photographs after Stonewall," a book of his father's photographs.
