Join us for a conversation with author and new media artist Scott Snibbe. Snibbe will introduce us to the history of his pioneering use of new technology and his exploration of traditional art forms. His artwork has been featured in leading institutions, from MoMA, SFMOMA, and The Whitney Museum of American Art to London's Institute of Contemporary Art, Tokyo's Intercommunications Center, and beyond. Snibbe has collaborated with renowned artists and creators throughout his career, including multiplatinum recording artist Björk on the groundbreaking “app album” Biophilia, filmmaker James Cameron, musician Beck, and composer Philip Glass. He is the author of How to Train A Happy Mind, featuring a forward written by the Dalai Lama. In his latest work, Snibbe draws from centuries-old Tibetan thangka painting techniques he studied in Nepal, which inspired him to explore the intersections of digital media and ancient craftsmanship. At the confluence of technology, traditional painting, and interactive design, Snibbe creates participatory experiences that push the boundaries of contemporary art and invite audiences to engage with it in new and unexpected ways.

Joan Jonas, now 88, has been a celebrated artist since the late 1960s. But it wasn't until 2024 that she received her crowning recognition in the U.S., when New York's Museum of Modern Art organized a major retrospective of her work. The arts icon splits her time between a Soho loft in NYC, and the "magical landscape" of Cape Breton, where she can be by her muse: the ocean. As she tells IDEAS producer Mary Lynk, "We come from the sea. It's not a memory. It's a feeling. It's in our DNA."Part of Jonas' MoMA retrospective called Moving Off the Land II has been acquired by the National Gallery of Canada and the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. The exhibit will tour across Canada this summer, beginning in Cape Breton.

Send us a textDigital artist Efdot takes us on a journey through the evolving landscape of crypto art and his creative process, revealing how he navigated from traditional beginnings to becoming a voice in the Web3 art movement.The conversation opens with Efdot's origin story – how digital tools were already part of his creative workflow before discovering the blockchain, using his iPad to design large-scale murals by drawing over photographs of walls. When he discovered people collecting digital art with the same reverence as physical pieces, he saw an opportunity to share his backlog of digital work with the right audience.Efdot paints a vivid picture of today's Web3 art scene, particularly in New York City where hundreds of artists are forming genuine communities around digital creation. "Before Web3, I didn't fit into the New York art scene," he explains. "Now there's real support and infrastructure being built." Looking forward, he envisions more institutional recognition through museum exhibitions, pointing to Refik Anadol's MoMA installation as a turning point for public perception of digital art.What truly sets Efdot's work apart is his approach to physical editions. Rather than simple reproductions, his screen prints create unique interpretations through layered inks that produce sculptural depth and unexpected color interactions. He treats these physical pieces as a premium tier distinct from digital editions, shipping them with certificates of authenticity.The conversation takes a personal turn as Efdot shares his mantra – "let go" – and his perfect cadence for releasing work: something substantial every 6-8 months, with smaller experiments every 1-2 months. His advice for artists entering the space resonates deeply: find communities you're passionate about and don't try to be everywhere at once.Don't miss Efdot's upcoming exhibition at the Canal Street show as part of the Subjective Art Fair, and watch for his two new collections launching soon. Follow his journey as he continues to bridge physical and digital art worlds with thoughtful creation and community-building.https://x.com/EfdotStudioSupport the show

Ep. 330: David Schwartz on A Theater Near You series at MoMA + Nitrate Picture Show 2025 Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. The repertory cinemas of New York were a formative influence on me and so I was excited to see a new film series at the Museum of Modern Art that surveys their programming, called A Theater Near You. David Schwartz, the former chief curator at the Museum of the Moving Image, guest-programmed the series, and he joins the podcast to talk about how the specific films in the program capture the particular flavors of New York cinemas past, such as the Bleecker Street Cinema, the Public, and the pioneering Cinema 16, brainchild of New York Film Festival co-founder Amos Vogel. Then on the second half of our chat, Schwartz talks about the latest Nitrate Picture Show at the George Eastman Museum, the festival that shows exclusively nitrate prints, including La Ronde, The Destroyers of Our Gardens, and more. “A Theater Near You” runs through July 11 at the Museum of Modern Art.

Chiara Correndo"Sul filo della lama"Memorie della disintegrazioneDavid WojnarowiczMiraggi Edizioniwww.miraggiedizioni.itTraduzione di Chiara CorrendoPostfazione di Jonathan BazziIn questo memoir urgente e denso, David Wojnarowicz offre uno spaccato violento e caleidoscopico sulla diffusione dell'Hiv in America e su cosa significhi essere omosessuale in una società, quella bigotta reaganiana degli anni Ottanta, dove domina il modello eteronormato della “ famigliola felice ” e in cui si reprime a colpi di leggi, sentenze, arresti e pestaggi la voce di chi vive ai margini.Sul filo della lama è un trip acido nel dolore, una sbronza in un dive bar sull'Hudson, un roadtrip furioso nella polvere dell'American Dream, raccontato attraverso una costellazione di capitoli dal taglio ora onirico ora fortemente politico, frutto di una vita dedicata a lottare per il diritto alla salute e alla corretta informazione e per il diritto di amare oltre ogni laccio sociale.Un'opera di un'intensità che scorre a fior di pelle.«David fu una vittima – del padre, dell'omofobia, del capitalismo, della sierofobia –, ma decise molto presto di rispondere alle ferite. E non esclusivamente per sé, in forma privata: tutta la sua produzione è una risposta pubblica, e per certi versi corale, alle molte forme dell'abuso di potere, all'ingiustizia quotidiana, ordinaria, affinché nessun altro debba più espiare colpe inesistenti. Leggere Wojnarowicz oggi significa rendersi conto che il dolore personale può trovare nell'azione estetica condivisa un canale per rendere deflagrante e memorabile il proprio messaggio. Molti di noi credo se ne siano dimenticati, travolti come siamo dalla bidimensionalità propagandistica del dibattito mediatico, ma giustizia e bellezza sono sorelle. Dare al dissenso un sigillo formale potente cambia tutto.» Jonathan BazziDavid Wojnarowicz, attivista omosessuale per i diritti delle persone con Hiv/Aids, è una delle voci più potenti e incendiarie della vibrante scena artistica newyorkese degli anni Ottanta. Nato nel 1954 a Red Bank (New Jersey), Wojnarowicz trascorse un'infanzia fatta di abusi ed espedienti. La violenza di questi primi anni e la forte vicinanza, fisica e spirituale, con un intero cosmo di “ emarginati ” gli consentirono tuttavia di sviluppare una riflessione particolarmente viva e intensa sulla solitudine, sull'amore e sulla bellezza della diversità. Fotografo, perfomer, visual artist e autore di diversi cortometraggi e libri, Wojnarowicz è stato un artista prolifico e poliedrico e le sue opere di forte denuncia sociale sono state esposte in contesti prestigiosi e internazionali tra i quali il Museo Reina Sofia di Madrid e il MoMA di New York. Wojnarowicz morì nel 1992 a New York per complicazioni correlate all'Aids a soli 37 anni.Chiara Correndo è nata a Carmagnola nel 1988. È assegnista di ricerca presso il Dipartimento di Giurisprudenza, dove insegna diritto hindu e lavora su questioni di genere e diritto di famiglia. Membro del comitato editoriale della rivista Daimon (diritto comparato delle religioni), è autrice di un volume su pluralismo giuridico e amministrazione locale della giustizia in India. Grande appassionata di letteratura, ha tradotto saggistica e, per la rivista letteraria Sud, la poesia “The Author” di Roger Salloch.

Curator, writer, and executive director Jessica Bell Brown returns to reflect on her evolving leadership at the Institute for Contemporary Art at Virginia Commonwealth University. In this conversation, we talk about openness as a strategy, the role of listening in shaping institutions, and what it means to make space for experimentation in times of uncertainty.Jessica shares how porosity, risk, and care shape her curatorial and executive approach—from expanding access beyond traditional art forms to launching chef residencies and community media programs at the ICA. We discuss the influence of her time at MoMA and the Baltimore Museum of Art, the power of contemporary art to respond to crisis, and why joy and curiosity remain central to her vision.Topics Covered:What leadership looks like through the lens of listeningExpanding access to arts beyond galleries and into kitchens and podcastsNavigating risk and limitation in an age of shrinking arts fundingThe evolving responsibility of cultural institutionsThe importance of reflection, care, and creative openness

Explaining how and why our world works the way it does touches on so many fields of science: biology, chemistry, physics, and, of course, technology. However, according to researcher Blaise Agüera y Arcas, computation should also be part of the understanding of life on all levels – and going back further than one might think. In What Is Life? Evolution as Computation, Agüera y Arcas uses computation as a means of examining the complexities of our own universe. Inspired by the work of quantum mechanics pioneer Erwin Schrödinger, he revisits the question that has showcased the divide between biology and physics: what is life? How can life and all its attendant complexities come to exist in a random universe, governed by simple laws, whose disorder only increases over time? What Is Life? aims to provide surprising answers, reframing core concepts of self-reproduction, complex growth, and symbiotic relationships as inherently computational. Agüera y Arcas draws on decades of theory and existing literature from figures like Alan Turing and John von Neumann, as well as recent endeavors in the field of artificial life. From evolution and symbiogenesis to thermodynamics and climate models, What Is Life? explores computation as a tool beyond raw calculation to understand intricate phenomena. This volume serves as a first installment of an ongoing body of work, with his larger book What Is Intelligence? further developing this perspective on intelligence from simple organisms to brains and from societies to AI. What Is Life? is richly illustrated and studded with examples, recontextualizing computational concepts and applications for a general audience curious about diving deeper into the machinations of our living world. Blaise Agüera y Arcas is a researcher and author focused on artificial intelligence, sociality, evolution, and software development. He is a VP and Fellow at Google, where he is the CTO of Technology & Society and founder of Paradigms of Intelligence (Pi). He is a frequent speaker at TED and has been featured in the Economist and Noēma, and has previously published the books Who Are We Now? and Ubi Sunt. Charles Tonderai Mudede is a Zimbabwean-born cultural critic, urbanist, filmmaker, college lecturer, and writer. He is the Senior Staff writer of the Stranger, a lecturer at Cornish College of the Arts, and has collaborated with the director Robinson Devor on three films, two of which Police Beat and Zoo, premiered at Sundance, and one of which, Zoo, screened at Cannes, and the most recent of which, Suburban Fury, premiered at New York Film Festival. (Police Beat is now part of MOMA's permanent collection.) Mudede, whose essays regularly appear in e-Flux and Tank Magazine, is also the director of Thin Skin (2023).

Glenn Lowry became the sixth director of The Museum of Modern Art, New York (MoMA) in 1995. He has overseen the physical transformation of the Museum's campus through two building campaigns that have more than doubled the size of MoMA's galleries, quintupled its endowment, created an education and research center, and inspired a new model for the presentation of modern and contemporary art. Lowry has championed innovation, both onsite and online, to grow MoMA's annual visitation to nearly 3 million in the galleries and 35 million across moma.org. He expanded the Museum's curatorial departments, with the addition of Media and Performance, and supported MoMA's intellectual growth by creating new research programs like Contemporary and Modern Art Perspectives (CMAP).In 2000, he led the merger of MoMA with the contemporary art center PS1, and in 2015, he worked with Thelma Golden to introduce a joint fellowship program with the Studio Museum in Harlem for rising professionals in the arts. Lowry is a strong advocate of contemporary artists and their work and he has lectured and written extensively in the support of contemporary art, on the role of museums in society, and on other topics related to his research interests. He currently serves on the boards of The Robert Rauschenberg Foundation, the Clark Art Institute, the Art Bridges Foundation and The Kiran Nadar Museum of Art, as well as on the advisory boards of the Istanbul Modern and the Mori Art Museum. Lowry is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and a resident member of the American Philosophical Society.He and Zuckerman discuss courting risk, creating the time to think, controlling the process, professional guidelines, the goal for museums to be independent and private enterprises, thinking that opens possibilities, being fearless, passion, and why art matters!

I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the esteemed American artist, Lorna Simpson. Working across photography to painting, video to collage, Simpson is a multimedia artist who – since the 1980s – has gained widespread acclaim for her pioneering approach to conceptual photography. Whether it's fusing text with image, obscuring her subject's identity, using techniques such as repetition, collage or manipulation – Simpson has conjured a plethora of ways to reinvent the image, and, by doing so, raises questions about gender, race, memory, and history. Her work, mostly centred on the female body, is full of seemingly open-ended narratives – as she has said: “I think the idea of identity or persona is interesting to me in that it is malleable and fluid. And that has always been part of the work in terms of [thinking about] who gets to determine who we are. Do we get to determine that, and what are the parameters of that, given the society that we live in?” Engaging with found images and objects, whether that be cut-outs from Ebony or Jet Magazines, or photographs she finds on eBay, which she melds with inks or collages of jewels, Simpson has continuously reconfigured what painting and photography means. Born in 1960, and raised in Queens and Brooklyn in a childhood that put the arts first, Simpson received her BFA from the School of Visual Arts, New York, and following that, an MFA from the University of California San Diego, where she began to focus on the portraits of Black women she found in magazines, adding suggestive phrases from elsewhere. By 1990, she had a major exhibition at MoMA, and throughout the decades has continued to push boundaries with her seemingly limitless approach to materials. But in 2015, she turned to painting, showing her first nine-feet-tall canvases at the Venice Biennale, and this month will present a major exhibition – that considers the entirety of her painting practice – at the Metropolitan Museum of Art here in New York – where we are recording today. Titled “Source Notes”, it will feature Simpson's monumental and spellbinding paintings, which, steeped in monochromatic blues, silvers, blacks and greys, appear in settings that evoke the cosmological or natural world. An extension of her photographic work, Simpson's paintings see the manipulated figure and body pressed into landscapes akin to waterfalls or meteorites, and I can't wait to find out more… https://lsimpsonstudio.com/ Lorna Simpson: Source Notes –  https://www.metmuseum.org/exhibitions/lorna-simpson-source-notes?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=&utm_term=lorna%20simpson%20art&utm_content=39536&mkwid=s&pcrid=743882408399&pmt=b&pkw=lorna%20simpson%20art&pdv=c&slid=&product=&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22399716678&gbraid=0AAAAADmlGN7UtMbglt7UAR4dicGAOa9Vx&gclid=CjwKCAjw24vBBhABEiwANFG7ywIA72_JjPaxVUdfQSWW_h8NFYNWzddlSHz6KV38M9zgiG4rs_9UNxoCVFkQAvD_BwE https://www.hauserwirth.com/artists/2860-lorna-simpson/ -- THIS EPISODE IS GENEROUSLY SUPPORTED BY THE LEVETT COLLECTION: https://www.famm.com/en/ https://www.instagram.com/famm_mougins // https://www.merrellpublishers.com/9781858947037 Follow us: Katy Hessel: @thegreatwomenartists / @katy.hessel Sound editing by Mikaela Carmichael Music by Ben Wetherfield

We meet artist Chris Levine, a British contemporary artist renowned for his pioneering work with light and lasers. His innovative approach transcends traditional mediums, integrating technology and spirituality to create immersive art installations that challenge and expand human perception. Levine's multidisciplinary practice encompasses installation, photography, performance, fashion, music, and design. He employs lasers and sound frequencies to craft environments that engage viewers on both sensory and contemplative levels. This synthesis of technology and art positions Levine's work within a broader historical context, aligning with movements that seek to transcend the physical and delve into the metaphysical.A seminal piece in Levine's portfolio is "Lightness of Being" (2004), a holographic portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This work has been lauded for its spiritual depth and technical mastery, with the National Portrait Gallery describing it as "the most evocative image of a royal by any artist." The portrait captures the ethereal quality of light and presence, reflecting Levine's ability to merge artistic expression with technological innovation. Beyond portraiture, Levine has engaged in numerous projects that bridge various artistic disciplines. In 2012, the artist partnered with Anohni and the Johnsons for their "Swanlight" performance at Radio City Music Hall, commissioned by the MoMA, New York, integrating laser with musical performance and creating a multisensory experience. Levine's site-specific large scale installations have pushed the boundaries of light art, taking diverse settings from the historic Durham Cathedral to the contemporary landscape of Hobart, Tasmania. Aligned with the traditions of public art inspiring communities, Levine's works make immersive art accessible to broader audiences. In 2021, Levine's exhibition at Houghton Hall, 528 Hz Love Frequency, featured "Molecule of Light," a monumental 25-meter-high sculpture that transformed the landscape and cemented his innovative approach to light art. This installation not only showcased the artist's technical prowess but also his ability to harmonize art with architectural space, creating a dialogue between the artwork and its environment. Through his multidisciplinary practice, Levine continues to explore the infinite possibilities of light in art, contributing to the ongoing dialogue on the intersection of technology, spirituality, and visual expression. His work stands as a testament to the transformative power of art, inviting viewers to experience the world through a lens of heightened awareness.Follow @ChrisLevine on InstagramVisit: https://chrislevine.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Successful solutions require a holistic approach considering local conditions, transportation, and community needs.Links relevant to the conversationKevin's Wikipedia entry:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_KennonEconomics Explored episode w/ Natalie Rayment, YIMBY QLD on the Missing Middle in housing:https://economics-explained.simplecast.com/episodes/missing-middle-housing-other-urban-planning-issuesLumo Coffee promotion10% of Lumo Coffee's Seriously Healthy Organic Coffee.Website: https://www.lumocoffee.com/10EXPLOREDPromo code: 10EXPLORED Full transcripts are available a few days after the episode is first published at www.economicsexplored.com.

Listen to a teen-led conversation with DonChristian Jones, about building spaces for belonging and memory. When artist DonChristian Jones started at MoMA as the inaugural Adobe Creative Resident, they created a vision for working with young people to share their stories about what art and community meant to them. In the summer of 2024, DonChristian—through their Residency at MoMA, along with the nonprofit they run, Public Assistant—and the Lower Eastside Girls Club collaborated on Frequency Gardens, a summer program and radio show. Over the course of a month, eight teens learned how to record and edit audio, conduct live interviews, and tell their stories through art. Four of the teen participants interviewed DonChristian about their collaborative process and what it was like to hear themselves as part of the exhibition.

Ceri is joined by Richard Malone, a groundbreaking Irish artist whose work has been commissioned for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Permanent Collection and is held in MoMA. Coming from a working class background in Ireland, Malone talks about forging a unique creative path, rejecting conventional systems, embracing being an outsider and keeping artistic integrity despite opportunities for commercial success. KEY TAKEAWAYS The colours and materials in Richard's work connect directly to his experiences on building sites and his grandmother's textile work. Despite not following traditional paths, Richard's commitment to making work on his own terms has led to significant recognition, including being the first Irish artist commissioned for the Metropolitan Museum's Permanent Collection. Richard believes in maintaining complete creative control, rejecting commercial opportunities (including creative director positions) that would compromise his artistic integrity. For Richard, success means having the daily privilege to create in his studio rather than external validation, fame, or financial reward, which helps him maintain perspective. Richard views trust as essential to the creative process, crediting collaborators who created psychological safety for his most successful projects, including his Royal Academy installation. Coming from a working class background in Ireland has given Richard a different perspective on institutions like the Royal Academy, allowing him to approach them with both respect and necessary irreverence. Richard believes artists need to become comfortable with failure and rejection and accept things when they don’t happen the way you would like or expect. BEST MOMENTS "The further that you get from where you started, the more you realise the importance of those things in constructing who you end up becoming." "I think there is a part of me that really resists that art market in the way that I resisted the fashion system because it doesn't feel right to me.” "The real luxury and the real joy, which I don't think a lot of people understand now, is that I get to come and sit in a studio and make whatever I want in a day. That is unbelievable to me from where I have come from." "Like it reads immaculately, award, award, award, show, show, show, institution, institution, institution. But like, none of that was planned. And there's so much shit that's in between." "I've been rejected for everything at least once. And I think now when I get rejected for something, it means nothing. It means absolutely nothing to me. I'm just like, oh, it's just not in my path.” "Get off social media. It's not real and stop looking sideways."

What does it mean to commit to performance so fully that it transforms how you move through the world? Winnipeg artist Shawna Dempsey reveals in this week's episode how performance art can be a radical tool for change. Dempsey recalls the inspiration behind some of her and collaborator Lori Millan's iconic works like Lesbian National Parks and Services, where she and Millan became uniformed officials "protecting the lesbian wilds" while educating the public about the inherent queerness of nature. Their performances blended humour, authority, and subversion to create transformative encounters decades before mainstream acceptance of LGBTQ+ identities. Learn about a time in the not-so distant-past where donning a ranger uniform emblazoned with the word "lesbian" forced constant coming out in 1990s Canada – a time when queer people had few legal protections and homophobia was abound. Dempsey and Millan are still creating work, like Thunderhead,  Canada's new LGBTQ2+ monument commemorating victims of The Purge. The financial realities of life as a non-commercial artist pose a counterpoint to creative freedom, and Dempsey explores how she walks this tightrope. Despite international recognition and exhibiting at prestigious institutions like MoMA and the Winnipeg Art Gallery, Dempsey remembers that sometimes the most they earned in a year was under $19,000 each while touring five months of the year. "Supporting oneself as an artist in Canada is very challenging, especially if you don't make anything saleable," she explains, detailing how they survived through teaching, writing, and "pretty much anything for $50."As co-executive director of Mentoring Artists for Women's Art (MAWA), Dempsey confronts the persistent inequality in visual arts, where women artists in Canada still earn only 70 cents for every dollar male artists make.  Aspiring artists will find wisdom in Dempsey's journey – from playing pretend as the famous artist "Miss Shawna from New York" as a child to creating groundbreaking feminist work that's changed lives. Her advice to artists? "Do it. What a wonderful way to live, because you get to go into the studio and think: what do I want to say today?"  Connect with us:Madison Beale, HostCroocial, ProductionBe a guest on The Artalogue Podcast

Moma Scott Jul  Full Interview

Yoko Ono is arguably the most famous Japanese person outside of Japan, and easily the most maligned. She's spoken of (falsely) as the woman who broke up the Beatles—not the woman who co-wrote “Imagine.” She's known as a woman who can't sing—not as a woman who used years of classical music training to subvert norms on more than a dozen experimental albums. Why don't more people know about her mischievous One Woman Show at MOMA, a performance piece staged outside the museum, without its permission, that slyly railed against its exclusion of female and Asian artists? Or about the clever all-white chess set she once sent to Reagan and Gorbachev at the height of the Cold War in 1987, simply titled Play It By Trust? “Everybody knows her name,” her Beatle husband once said, “but no one knows what she does.” Now, thanks to David Sheff's new biography, simply titled Yoko, no one has an excuse not to know anymore: about her art, her activism, her music, and her astonishing journey from war-torn Tokyo to the avant-garde art scenes of London and New York.

Hear from two artists and an educator about how they use improvisation to engage with art. Improvisation informs all kinds of creative practice. But how does chance really play out in an artist's work? And how might it inform their everyday lives? Choreographer and dancer Mariana Valencia and artist and musician Jazmin “Jazzy” Romero test these ideas in the performance Jacklean (in rehearsal). In this episode of the Magazine podcast, they discuss how chance operates in their work, what a performance score for improvisation looks like, and share more about their collaboration. Their story of friendship and innovation is bookended by anecdotes from Sarah Dinkelacker, an educator at MoMA who uses improvisation to help people engage with art. Tune in to hear more about improvisation as a tool for life—a way to make it up as you go and move through the world with others.

Episode No. 699 features two conversations with artist Jack Whitten.  The Museum of Modern Art, New York is presenting "Jack Whitten: The Messenger," the third major US survey of Whitten's work since 2014. (Previous exhibitions include a paintings retrospective at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in 2014-15, and a sculpture retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2017-18.) "The Messenger," which is on view through August 2, was curated by Michelle Kuo with assistance from Helena Klevorn, Dana Liljegren, and David Sledge. Next month MoMA will publish a catalogue of the exhibition. Amazon and Bookshop offer it for $70-75.  This episode features Whitten's two visits to The MAN Podcast. The first was recorded in 2013 on the occasion of "Light Years: Jack Whitten, 1971-73" at Brandeis University's Rose Art Museum. The second was recorded before a live audience at the opening of "Jack Whitten: Five Decades of Painting" at MCASD in 2014. For images, please see Episode No. 98 and Episode No. 151. 

MoMA has just opened a major retrospective of artist Jack Whitten. “Jack Whitten: The Messenger” features more than 175 works spanning the 1960s to the 2010s. Whitten, who died in 2018, was known for his bold abstraction and deep exploration of materiality. MoMA Curator Michelle Kuo and Whitten's daughter and archive steward Mirsini Amidon discuss the show, on view through August 2.

This conversation between curators Ebony L. Haynes, Thomas (T.) Jean Lax, and K.O. Nnamdie was initiated alongside an essay series in e-flux journal titled “After Okwui Enwezor,” edited by Serubiri Moses.  The episode begins with three short audio excerpts from [1] On the Politics of Disaggregation: Notes on Cildo Meireles' Insertions into Ideological Circuits—Parsons The New School for Design  [2] Postwar: Art between the Pacific and the Atlantic, 1945–1965—Fondation Giacometti [3] Art Dubai Global Art Forum 8: 1955–2055: A Documenta Century Exhibitions covered include: Postwar: Art Between the Pacific and the Atlantic, 1945–1965 (2016) and the 56th Venice Biennale: All the World's Futures (2015). Additionally, the idea of rigorous curating, and the horizon is explored in discussion of recent exhibitions including Judson Dance Theater: The Work is Never Done (2018) at MoMA, and Invisible Man (2017) featuring Jessica Vaughan, Kayode Ojo, Torkwase Dyson and Pope.L at Martos Gallery, and Evil N*gger (2025) featuring Glenn Ligon and Julius Eastman at 52 Walker.   The “After Okwui Enwezor” series in e-flux journal reflects on the resounding presence of the late writer, curator, and theoretician. Along with a focus on his many innovative concepts like the “postcolonial constellation,” the series presents a wide evaluation of Enwezor's curatorial and theoretical practice following other similar initiatives, such as the special issue on Enwezor by the journal he founded, Nka Journal of Contemporary African Art. Moving beyond tributes and biography, this series covers topics such as the relevance of Enwezor's approach to politics, the limits of the exhibition as a form for critique, his conception of modernity and writing on the contemporary, his nomadic epistemology, accounts of his biennials in Seville, Paris, and Venice as institutional critique, and the specific contribution of non-Western artists in the art world. Ebony L. Haynes is the curator and Senior Director at 52 Walker, a David Zwirner gallery space presenting longer format exhibitions with primarily conceptual and research-based artists. T. Lax is a curator of media and performance at New York's Museum of Modern Art, where he has co-organized Judson Dance Theater: The Work is Never Done (2018), Just Above Midtown: Changing Spaces (2022) and Ceremonies Out of the Air: Ralph Lemon (2024) among others. Thomas began his career at the Studio Museum in Harlem, where he contributed to the landmark “f show” contemporary art series in 2012 and put together When The Stars Begin To Fall: Imagination and the American South in 2014. K.O. Nnamdie is an artist, writer, curator, and art advisor. Nnamdie ran Restaurant Projects, a curatorial project between 2018 and 2025 based on their interest in the intersection between hospitality and the arts. Nnamdie also directed anonymous gallery between 2021 and 2024.  

The largest ever exhibition of the work of Jack Whitten opens this weekend at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), New York. Ben Luke speaks to Michelle Kuo, the curator of the show, about the political and experimental commitment that drove Whitten's remarkable body of work.

Richard Misrach is one of the most influential photographers of his generation, known for his haunting, large-scale images of the American West. His work captures both the region's breathtaking beauty and the profound ways humans have altered the landscape. His photographs are housed in the collections of MoMA, the Whitney, and the Getty—but for Misrach, they serve a deeper purpose: creating a historical record. Here are his songs.

This is the first part of a two part conversation with Maryam Kashani on her book Medina By The Bay: Scenes of Muslim Study and Survival It's a cool book that weaves Maryam's scholarly ethnographic work with her talents as a filmmaker and a DJ to examine and illuminate various strains of Islam in the San Francisco Bay Area from the Black Power Movement to the so-called war on terror and the rise of the surveillance state. She dubs her approach an “ethnocinematic.”  We discuss legacies of anti-imperialist Islam on Turtle Island as well as more assimilative ways of being. We'll dig into this more in part 2, but we wanted to make sure to get this part out during Ramadan.  Kashani is an associate professor in Gender and Women's Studies and Asian American Studies at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and is in the leadership collective of Believers Bail Out, a community-led effort to bailout Muslims in pretrial and immigration incarceration towards abolition. We'll include a lengthier bio in the show description. Believers Bail Out has a fundraiser to bail out Muslims during Ramadan which we will link in the show description. We really encourage folks to kick in what they can to support that initiative.  The other thing I wanted to make sure to mention is we do talk a little bit about Imam Jamil Al-Amin in this episode. I'm including a couple of links to projects and campaigns related to Imam Jamil Al-Amin in the show description. According to Students for Imam Jamil he has received a medical transfer thanks to the support and calls of many folks. But there are other ways people can continue to support Imam Jamil Al-Amin (see below).  And lastly, we have a Samir Amin Accumulation on a World Scale Study Group for patrons only. It will start Wednesday the 12th of March and run through June. I'll include a link with more details in the show description, but space is limited on that so if you want to reserve a spot make sure to sign up today at patreon.com/millennialsarekillingcapitalism which is also the best place to support our work on this podcast.

For Maryam's essay on Hajja Dhameera Ahmad check out the book Black Power Afterlives For more on Imam Jamil Al Amin: https://www.imamjamilactionnetwork.org/ and freeimamjamil.com and support the fundraiser for the "What Happened to Rap" film. Samir Amin Accumulation on a World Scale Study Group (7:30 PM Eastern Time US on Wednesdays) Believers Bail Out use Zakat to bail Muslims out of jail or immigrant detention Full bio: Maryam Kashani works from a deep commitment to the aesthetic and political possibilities of experimental filmmaking, music, and the essay form, whether as 16mm films and videos, text/sound/image installations and live performance, DJing, or written monograph. Her work explores the relationships between physical landscapes and the sociopolitical, material, and spiritual histories and forces that emerge with and against them and is concerned with narration and description, archive, and knowledge production with a particular focus on collective study and struggle in and against colonial racial capitalism across local and global geographies. She recently published Medina by the Bay: Scenes of Muslim Study and Survival (Duke University Press, 2023), which is an ethnocinematic examination of how multiracial Muslim communities in the San Francisco Bay Area survive within and against racial capitalist, carceral, and imperial logics. Her films and video installations (http://www.maryamkashani.com/) have been shown at film festivals, universities, and museums internationally, including the Sharjah Biennial, MoMA, Hammer Museum, Chelsea Museum, and the Pacific Film Archive. Kashani is an associate professor in Gender and Women's Studies and Asian American Studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and is in the leadership collective of Believers Bail Out, a community-led effort to bailout Muslims in pretrial and immigration incarceration towards abolition.    

Leon Black channeled his inner Eminem and busted into a rap song in 2018 during a MoMa event. And yes... It was as cringe as you are thinking. To contact me:Bobbycapucci@protonmail.com Source:https://nypost.com/2020/11/01/moma-still-backing-rapping-leon-black-a-year-after-jeffrey-epsteins-death/
