Podcasts about museum confidential

For this new installment in our Art Fair Diaries series, Philbrook Chief Curator (and occasional roving Museum Confidential correspondent) Kate Green reports from the biggest art fair in one of the world's biggest cities. Welcome to Mexico City.

How will our evermore digital civilization persist beyond our lifetime? Audio- and videotapes demagnetize; CDs delaminate; Internet art works often link to websites that no longer exist; etc. This book argues that the vulnerability of new media in the art world points to a larger crisis for our social memory.

With more and more of our lives now being lived online -- and with more and more of our stuff existing only in the cloud -- how best should we preserve art...and culture...and everything else worth saving? On this go-round of Museum Confidential, we speak with Richard Rinehart, the Director of the Samek Art Gallery at Bucknell University. He's also the co-author of an interesting new book titled "Re-Collection: Art, New Media, and Social Memory."

"Printmaking: Art and the Written Word" reveals several centuries of European history; the materials in this exhibit reflect spirituality, culture, and academic thought from the Reformation up to the time of the Italian courts.

Known for his camera work on films like "The Shawshank Redemption," "No Country for Old Men," "Blade Runner 2049," and "1917," Deakins is also, as his book "Byways" makes clear, a brilliant and perceptive B&W photographer.

Delving into on a splendid, newly opened show now at Philbrook; it's a special gathering of masterpieces spanning 500 years of European painting.

We learn all about an art exhibition, opening soon in London, which collects 60+ works made by noted African-American artists over the past century.

What is the "art market" exactly? And how, and to what degree, has it changed in recent years?

We learn about an important, historic, soon-to-close Van Gogh show in Detroit.

Sprung is the Brooklyn-based artist who was commissioned to paint the official White House portrait of Michelle Obama.

A chat with the noted contemporary British artist, Dave White.

"Joan Didion: What She Means" is an art exhibition now on view at UCLA's Hammer Museum; it renders the great writer's life and work through the creations of nearly 50 artists, including Betye Saar, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Maren Hassinger, and Ed Ruscha.

An artist, designer, and writer, Vernon is perhaps best known for her erotic jewelry.

This week's review is onSidedoor - No spoilers! I've only been to the Smithsonian Institution in D.C. once as a kid but this bi-weekly podcast the museum produces makes you feel like you're walking through the halls. Perfect for those who are still cautious about going out. Not only does it cover an extreme variety topics (history, science, art, space, and nature to name a few) but it covers some that aren't on exhibit so even if you were to go you wouldn't experience these stories. How many could there possibly be I hear you ask. Well the archives of the museum are filled with around 155 million artifacts each one with a story to tell. The institution is made up of 21 museum and the natural zoo. This podcast pulls from all of them and puts the objects discussed into captivating narratives that make the information you learn stay with you. Host Lizzie Peabody weaves interviews with facts that will leave you passionately curious about whatever the topic. The show, which first aired in October of 2016, has  4.6 stars and 1,700 ratings. So far there 150 episodes each about 25 minutes long. Perfect for the average commute. Their website has the show coming out every other Wednesday but on Pocketcasts and other players the days seem more sporadic. Owltail has the most listened to episodes as “Special Delivery” and “The Curse of the Hope Diamond.” My favorites were “The Dinosaur War” and “Murder Is Her Hobby” Music is quick and unremarkable. No trigger warnings for this one.Similar pods: Museum Confidential, Museums n'That, and Museum ArchipelagoAll right, guys, that's all for this week but remember if you want to see the cover art, sources or the written transcript for this episode be sure to check out the show notes.

MC just recently launched its seventh season, and this episode is all about "The Cheech."

A conversation about the state of museums today with Samuel Redman, author of "The Museum: A Short History of Crisis and Resilience."

We meet Shirley Woodson, the celebrated American visual artist and art teacher. The Detroit Institute of Arts is now exhibiting 11 of her pieces in "Shirley Woodson: Shield of the Nile." (The show runs through June 12, 2022.)

What role can artists and creative types can play -- that is, meaningfully, effectively, and actively -- in times of war?

Notes on race, fashion, border towns, collage, creativity, and zoot suits. And more.

MC connects with one Mike Winkelmann, who's been creating digital art for over two decades. He's 40 years old, lives in South Carolina, and has a computer science degree from Purdue. Oh, and when he's creating his internationally-known online artwork, he goes by Beeple.

"Another World" has striking work by Raymond Jonson (American, 1891-1982), Emil Bisttram (American, 1895-1976), Agnes Pelton (American, 1881-1961), Florence Miller Pierce (American, 1918-2007), and several others.

The Oklahoma artist Harold Stevenson (1929-2018) created big paintings and lived an even bigger life in New York, Paris, Key West, and the Hamptons...and became best friends with Andy Warhol along the way.

A focus on Barbara Kruger, the word-and-caption-centric conceptual artist whose familiar images and texts have been a part of our culture for decades.

On this edition of ST, we offer another installment in our Museum Confidential podcast series. This time around, MC speaks with the Pulitzer Prize-winning art-historian and acclaimed artist Steven Naifeh.

StudioTulsa offers another installment in PRT's Museum Confidential podcast series, which looks at questions of — and trends within — art, curating, collecting, museum-going, creativity, and so forth.

On this edition of ST, we offer an another installment in the Museum Confidential podcast series, which is a co-production of Philbrook Museum of Art and Public Radio Tulsa. This time out, MC connects with the legendary musician, painter, actor, and director, John Lurie, who might be best known as a co-founder of the Lounge Lizards, the jazz/avant/indie band that thrived on the 1980s "downtown scene" in NYC. He's also acted in many films, including "Stranger than Paradise" and "Down by Law," and has composed and/or performed music for nearly two dozen TV and film works over the years. Since 2000, Lurie has been dealing with chronic Lyme disease; in this time, he has also focused more and more on his painting. And thus his well-regarded -- and typically off-the-wall -- television series, "Painting with John," debuted on HBO in early 2021. (A second season of "Painting with John" is now in the works.) Moreover, Lurie's memoir, "The History of Bones," was published by Penguin Random House a couple of months ago. He chats with MC about all of the above -- and more.

On this installment of StudioTulsa, we are pleased to share Episode 1 of Season 6 of the Museum Confidential podcast, which is a co-production of Philbrook Museum of Art and Public Radio Tulsa. (Season 6 just launched earlier this month.) This episode begins with a few basic yet far-reaching questions. What is an "outsider artist"? And do we even call them that anymore? In recent years, the term has shifted to "self-taught artist." Sounds different, but does it mean the same thing? And what about "folk art" -- when does this term apply? We chat with Dr. Katherine Jentleson, the Merrie and Dan Boone Curator of Folk and Self-Taught Art at the High Museum in Atlanta. The High recently opened two companion exhibitions focusing on "outsider art."

The secret's out! Season 6 of Museum Confidential starts Friday 9/3! Enjoy this early listen to our new season theme song performed by Oklahoma's own Broncho. Written by Broncho's Ryan Lindsey and MC Host Jeff Martin. 

On the season finale of Museum Confidential 2021 we sit down with Philbrook President/CEO Scott Stulen and Phil Armstrong, Project Director for the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre Centennial Commission. Phil has been leading the effort to open Greenwood Rising, a history center located at the gateway to Tulsa's Historic Greenwood District. Greenwood Rising honors the icons of Black Wall Street, memorializes the victims of the massacre, and examines the lessons of the past.

On this 75th episode of Museum Confidential we chat with Mikeal Vaughn of the Urban Coders Guild. This spring the Urban Coders Guild student cohorts will use their acquired web and mobile application development skills to create a collection of websites and an accompanying mobile app for the businesses lost in the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. Co-hosted by Greenwood Art Project Program Director Jerica Wortham. 

In connection with the landmark special exhibition, Hearts of Our People: Native Women Artists (on view through 1/3/21), Museum Confidential presents a new limited series hosted by journalist/podcaster, Rebecca Nagle (Cherokee) highlighting artists in the exhibition. Music for the series provided by Oklahoma musician, Kalyn Fay (Cherokee/Muscogee). New episodes every week in December. On this episode Rebecca chats with acclaimed artist, Anita Fields (Osage) about her life, work, and much more. 

On this installment of ST, we share a Museum Confidential podcast from our archives that feels especially timely, given what's going these days across the nation and, indeed, all over the world. The podcast episode is from the fall of 2018, when we spoke with Dr. David Pilgrim, founder and curator of the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia at Ferris State University in Michigan. This museum was born out of his personal collection, one that began decades ago, when Dr. Pilgrim was growing up in Alabama. Also on our program, commentator Mark Darrah offers "The Next Bus to Nome."

On this edition of ST, we present another installment in our Museum Confidential podcast series , which is a popular co-production of Public Radio Tulsa and Philbrook Museum of Art. This time out, MC speaks with longtime NYC-museum veteran Christine Coulson, who worked at The Met for a quarter of a century in a variety of roles. She left a couple of years ago to write full-time, and now comes her widely acclaimed and rather experimental debut novel: "Metropolitan Stories."

Welcome to Tulsa Talks presented by Tulsa Regional Chamber. I’m your host Tim Landes. The voice you just heard is our TulsaPeople Tulsan of the Year, Jeff Martin. I’m a huge fan of Jeff and the work he does for our city. At the end of our conversation we recorded in early December, I mentioned to Jeff that his work has helped keep me in Tulsa, and that’s definitely true. I’m a bookworm and a regular audience member at author talks hosted by Booksmart Tulsa, which was launched by Jeff in 2009. It started as a monthly pub book club held at McNellies and has grown into the Tulsa Literary Coalition that has brought more than 1,000 authors to Tulsa, including nearly 200 in 2019. That’s an event every other day. And Jeff works most of them for free. It’s those events that educate and inspire me and help shape me as a writer. Two years ago, Jeff and his business partner (the late Cindy Hulsey) opened Magic City Books at the corner of Archer St and Detroit Ave in downtown Tulsa’s arts district. Jeff and Tulsa Literary Coalition’s efforts have help reinvigorate Tulsa’s longtime love for books and we’re now seeing an explosion of independent bookstores opening in Tulsa. In our conversation, Jeff discusses why it’s so important to see those literary allies appearing across the metro. Connie Cronley wrote an excellent piece on Jeff in our January issue, and I’m thrilled I had the opportunity to expand on her work in our chat. He and I discussed his childhood and how his early work in a video store and a national chain bookstore helped mold him into who he is today. It turns out not being scared of the word “no” and asking for forgiveness instead of permission can take someone a long way toward their dreams. We also briefly talk about his work as the communications manager for Philbrook. It’s a dream job he wouldn’t have had it not been for hosting a book talk at the museum. If you’ve listened to Philbrook’s Museum Confidential podcast, you’ll already be familiar with Jeff. For those who haven’t checked it out, I suggest once you’re finished listening all our episodes, you dive into their archive. It’s really great stuff. A few days before we recorded, Jeff gave me the opportunity to moderate a book talk with author Paul Hendrickson. I can tell you, it’s not easy work filling Jeff’s shoes for an evening. I had fun, and I look forward to doing more in the future to help give the man a break every now and then. He’s earned them. Following that conversation, The Voice music writer and People To Wave To host Kyra Bruce shares highlights from her interview with Tulsa rapper First Verse, who also shares a new single with you to close out the episode. Alright let’s get this going. This is Tulsa Talks with Jeff Martin.

Today's episode is sponsored by Tulsa Botanic Garden, presenting Festival of Lights through January 6.On today’s episode, I’m feeling extra festive, because we’ve got Philbrook Museum director Scott Stulen in the studio to talk about the museum’s annual Festival.Then, Morgan Phillips takes the stage with a dramatic rendition of What the What?!That’s the voice of Scott Stulen, the now-iconic director of the always-iconic Philbrook Museum. In the past 2 and a half years, Scott has steered the museum in a distinctively modern direction. The Internet Cat Video Festival. The 80s-themed 80th anniversary. The bold, interactive visiting exhibitions featuring the works of Andy Warhol and Mel Bochner. Plus, who can forget the tiny motel from which local musicians played live-streamed mini-concerts.Philbrook even has a podcast now, Museum Confidential, which — full disclosure — definitely had a hand in inspiring us to start a podcast too.But, Scott knows that there are some things you just don’t mess with. One of those beloved traditions is Festival, which longtime Tulsans may remember as the Philbrook Festival of Trees, an annual holiday celebration that sees the Italian Villa decked out in full holiday glory, it’s immaculate gardens illuminated and glittering. But in addition to the warm familiarity, Scott promises us new surprises, too. Scott and I were discussing the new cabin in the Philbrook gardens. Since this conversation, I’ve experienced it for myself — and it’s truly magical. But the cabin isn’t the only new addition you can expect at Philbrook’s Festival.We’ll be back with more of this conversation. But first, Morgan Phillips reconnects with her inner drama nerd thanks to the Orbit Initiative on this installment of What the What?!To get a behind-the-scenes look at this and other adventures, be sure to follow Morgan on Instagram at @whatthewhattulsa. When we left off, Scott Stulen was discussing the new additions to this year’s Philbrook Festival.
