Podcast appearances and mentions of Norman Lewis

A bumper show today full of energy and great debate. We'll be back with our first show of 2025 on 8th January. Wishing all of you a peaceful and happy Christmas and New Year. Recommendations: Catriona Swiped - CH4 Emma and Matt Willis challenge a group of Year 8 pupils at the Stanway School in Colchester to give up their smartphones completely for 21 days Angela Irresistible -BBC2 Why are ultra-processed foods so irresistible, and how they have come to dominate food culture? This documentary by medical doctor and academic Dr Chris van Tulleken features interviews with former food industry insiders who talk openly about the way in which popular foods have been designed to be irresistible. Food companies go to extraordinary lengths to ensure their products connect with consumers - from using brain scans to assess the deliciousness of ice cream to carefully engineering the sound of a crunch. Ultra-processed foods are hyper-delicious and super-convenient, have long shelf lives and are extremely cheap. But a growing body of evidence is linking these products to our declining health. David A Quiet Evening: The Travels of Norman Lewis Collected here, from a period of nearly five decades, are thirty-six of Norman Lewis's best articles. In each, his writing crackles with poker-faced wit and stylistic brilliance. As a witness to his times – the good, the bad and the absurd – he was unmatched, and his instinct for important events, and moments, was infallible. His range here includes Ibizan fishermen, an interview with Castro's executioner, the genocide of the South American Indian tribes, a paean to Seville and his meeting with a tragic Ernest Hemingway. That meeting was ‘a shattering experience,' Norman wrote to Ian Fleming who had commissioned him, ‘of the kind likely to sabotage ambition.'Fortunately it didn't, and the articles assembled between these covers are compulsive, hilarious, tender and beautifully written, at times deeply upsetting, and always unforgettable. The Golden Road: How Ancient India Transformed the World  With a mind-boggling mastery of sources, Dalrymple weaves a thrilling tale of India's cultural hegemony, not forgetting its invention of mathematics and related disciplines still in use today - Andrew Lycett, Spectator Eamonn Comfort and Joy Alan Bird (Bill Paterson, Outlander, Dad's Army) thinks he has life pretty well organised. Glasgow's top DJ, with a nice apartment, and the only red BMW Cabriolet north of Manchester, he has little to worry about until his kleptomaniac girlfriend Maddy ditches him just before Christmas.

In s3e60 of Platemark, podcast host Ann Shafer speaks with Ron Rumford, director of Dolan/Maxwell, a private gallery in Philadelphia. Dolan/Maxwell deals in 20th century art, with a particular specialty in the prints of Stanley William Hayter and the associated artists of Atelier 17, as well as Black artists of the same era, such as Bob Blackburn, Norma Morgan, Elizabeth Catlett, Ed Clark and more. While they could have spent the entire time talking about Hayter (they'll get to that in the History of Prints series), Ron wanted to highlight an exhibition focused on Dox Thrash, which is on view at the African American Museum of Philadelphia through August 4, 2024.   They talk about Thrash and his invention of the carborundum mezzotint, Bob Blackburn's Printmaking Workshop and its relationship to Atelier 17 and Hayter, the monumental importance of the WPA printmaking division, and Ballinglen, an artist residency and gallery founded by Peter Maxwell and Margo Dolan in Ballycastle, a tiny farming town in County Mayo, Ireland.   Dox Thrash (American, 1893–1965).

Als Harald Martenstein Geburtstag hatte, fragte eine Freundin, was er sich wünsche. Er sagte: "Schenk mir ein gutes Buch, das ich normalerweise nicht lesen würde." Er bekam "Neapel ’44" von Norman Lewis. Ein Buch, in dem ein britischer Nachrichtenoffizier über seine Zeit in Süditalien 1944 schreibt, hätte sich Martenstein vermutlich wirklich nicht gekauft. Zu speziell, hätte er gedacht. Auch wenn auf dem Buchrücken eine Kritik zitiert wird, laut der dies eines der zehn Bücher über den Zweiten Weltkrieg ist, die bleiben werden. Auch wenn Graham Greene seinen Kollegen Lewis "einen der besten Autoren des Jahrhunderts" nennt.

Í Napólí er hættan af flugumönnum Þjóðverja ekki að baki þó farið sé að vetra 1943. Í þessari frásögn úr minningum Norman Lewis segir frá gríðarlegri sprengingu sem verður í borginni, og einnig frá ungum nasista sem heimtar píslarvætti fyrir der Fuhrer. Einnig blandast Lewis inn í aðskilnaðarhreyfingu Napólí-búa og svo kemur í ljós að hvað sem líður stríði og hörmungum, þá er holdin sem fyrr torvelt að temja. Umsjón: Illugi Jökulsson.

Norman Lewis hét breskur dáti sem tók þátt í innrás Bandamanna á Ítalíu í september 1943 og síðan árás þeirra á Napólí. Hann skrifaði æviminningar sínar sem eru næsta einstæðar í sinni því þær lýsa stríðinu frá sjónarhóli hins óbreytta dáta sem oft veit ekkert hvað er á seyði í stríðinu en reynir að halda velli og gera sitt besta. Lewis dregur heldur ekki dul á að hans eigin menn frömdu líka oft voðaverk og hlutskipti Ítalanna sem voru frelsaðir undan fasistum og Þjóðverjum var oft sannarlega ekki auðvelt.

This time we read The Golden Basement by David Norman Lewis, self-published in March of 2023. This was recommended by long-time listener, first-time caller Max who sent us a wonderful email recommending that we read this saying, "A few months ago you might have noticed a poem titled "$Reward$If$Found$" stapled up all over Cambridge, there were a couple reddit threads about it. On going back to my hometown of Seattle, WA I found out the poem is from a local self-published book...The author has been stapling the same poem everywhere. The novel is a "kids' book" about underground monsters controlling people's thoughts during the 1990 Goodwill Games...There's a YouTube video where the author is trying to sell it with donuts. You have to check it out. I so want to hear your takes on it…I emailed the author and he told me the baker is a friend of his. They once worked together on trying to make a new religion for Seattle but nobody showed up." Thank you so very much, Max, for your longtime support and for recommending this book. It was very different from anything we've read before and we actually didn't hate it! Today's show includes our usual barnyard language plus discussion or mention of: emotional abuse, enslavement, murder, parental neglect and abuse, sexual assault, and suicide.

What if the art world was not just exclusive, but inclusive? What if representation and diversity were not just buzzwords but an actual reality? Today, we sit down with the remarkable Kilolo Luckett, an art historian, curator, and passionate storyteller, who takes us on an enthralling journey from her Mississippi roots to her stellar career in the art world. Kilolo opens up about her experiences in white-dominated spaces, highlighting the glaring lack of representation for black curators, collections managers, and educators. We grapple with the repercussions of this absence, emphasizing the importance of diverse leadership in cultural institutions.If you've ever wondered about the inspiring stories behind great artists, don't miss this vibrant discussion. We explore the works of artists such as Alma Thomas, the first African-American woman to have a solo show at the Whitney Museum, and Norman Lewis, who won the Carnegie International Award the same year Emmett Till was lynched. Luckett shares invaluable insights into her own journey as an artist, her artist residency, and the relationships she has cultivated with other artists. She discusses her tireless efforts in providing the resources necessary for artists to thrive and dream, reimagine, and conceptualize their work.And as if that wasn't enough, Kilolo shares her wisdom on keeping our feet firmly planted on the ground in this digital age. She challenges us to put away our digital devices and embrace traditional practices, offering advice to emerging artists that we could all learn from. We delve into her vision for the future of art, her hopes for change, and her personal definition of love as integrity and self-love. It's an inspiring conversation that celebrates art, diversity and the relentless pursuit of representation.

The Postman is here! We got the esteemed collector Kerry Davis joining the Studio Noize fam. Kerry built his legendary collection while working 30 years as a postman at USPS. How impressive is his collection? Well, it's in the middle of a 5-year national museum tour, and he could have a whole other show from work currently up in his home. The collection includes the biggest names in Black art, from Charles White to Radcliff Bailey, Mo Brooker to Louis Delsarte. The collection alone is enough to discuss, but we go deeper than that. Kerry tells us about the relationships with those names on the wall. Mildred Thomas was his real friend; those personal stories are so great to hear.

Today on Crime & Entertainment we dive into the mind of a high-end art thief, Joselito Vega, otherwise known as Picasso Vega. Vega, a 42 year old who worked for Zimmer painting Inc., allegedly stole three works of art in March of 2011 from a well-known art collection. Vega was facing up to 26 years in jail after being arrested for charges stemming from the art theft. The theft took place in the Schulhof estate, a Long Island mansion which houses over 300 twentieth century artworks valued at millions of dollars. When one of the pieces — Jean Dubuffet's Armchair II — was sold at an auction, investigators traced the payment to a Brooklyn mailbox belonging to Joselito Vega, who had been hired to paint the home prior to the paintings' disappearance. Police nabbed Vega in a sting operation when Vega was invited back for another paint job at the Schulhof house, where he was videotaped “scrutinizing” a crate full of paintings before placing three selections (one of which was a Picasso) in a black garbage bag. But Vega's defense attorney says that prosecutors laid an unfair “trap” for his client. Further, his lawyer contended that Vega “‘couldn't know much about art' because he is accused of selling a painting ‘he was alleged to have stolen for $10,000 when he should have sold it for $50,000." The whereabouts of the other two stolen paintings — Frank Stella's Tuftonboro (appraised at $25,000) and Norman Lewis's Flower (appraised at $10,000) — are still unknown.

Daniel Neofetou's Rereading Abstract Expressionism, Clement Greenberg and the Cold War (Bloomsbury, 2021) rereads Clement Greenberg's account of Abstract Expressionism through Adorno and Merleau-Ponty in order to contend that Greenberg's criticism in fact testifies to how the movement opposes the ends to which it was deployed in efforts of U.S. imperialism during the Cold War. With reference not only to the most famous artists of the movement, but also female and non-white figures whom Greenberg himself neglected, such as Joan Mitchell and Norman Lewis, it is argued that, far from reinforcing the capitalist status quo, Abstract Expressionism engages corporeal and affective elements of experience dismissed or delegitimated by capitalism, and promises a world which would do justice to them. Kaveh Rafie is a PhD candidate specializing in modern and contemporary art at the University of Illinois at Chicago. His dissertation charts the course of modern art in the late Pahlavi Iran (1941-1979) and explores the extent to which the 1953 coup marks the recuperation of modern art as a viable blueprint for cultural globalization in Iran.

Norman Lewis had an instinct for being in exactly the right place to capture traditional ways of life on the brink of modernity, but his books are far from dry — he also had an unerring eye for the absurd. Biographer Julian Evans joins me to talk about Lewis's escape reflex, the subjectivity of witness statements, and the past as a place.

This week's guest is the screenwriter and novelist Frank Cottrell-Boyce. He talks to Mariella about the books that shaped him, including Maurice Sendack's 'Where The Wild Things Are', 'Naples '44' by Norman Lewis, and the poem 'Saint Kevin and the Blackbird' by Seamus Heaney. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode I interview Michela Wrong about her book Do Not Disturb, which is about the murder of Rwanda's former head of intelligence Patrick Karegeya. We talked about her interviews with people who had been asked to murder Karegeya, what it was like to criticise Rwandan president Paul Kagame, and how it felt when he responded on national television. We also discussed her experience reporting on the genocide and how the book addressed journalism's ability to report on such events.You can buy Michela's books here: https://uk.bookshop.org/contributors/michela-wrongThe book she recommended was Naples '44 by Norman Lewis:https://uk.bookshop.org/books/naples-44-an-intelligence-officer-in-the-italian-labyrinth/9780907871729And finally is a link to my books: https://uk.bookshop.org/contributors/andrew-hankinsonThanks for listening.

In this, Part 2 of my chat with Richard Lapper, we walk from Wapping to Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park and back to Wapping via King Edward VII Park, the Regents Canal, Mile End Park and Limehouse Basin talking about history, politics, London, and Brazil. Tune in to be inspired by London's east side, understanding more about Brazil, and how farming, religion and security can play such an important part in the making and breaking of a country. And why the Amazon has become so threatened by a policy that changed the region forever: People without land for a land without people. Richard talks about the influence of British journalist Norman Lewis raising awareness of the indigenous communities in the Amazon and how their way of life was being threatened brought about the rise of Survival International; and through reporting for insurance companies the change of weather patterns brought about the world's first environmentalist movements. Richard talks about why Brazil goes off the rails, the impact of the discovery of oil in Brazil in 2006, the car wash scandal and the rise of the two biggest gangs in Brazil, the First Command of the Capital in Sao Paulo and The Red Command in Rio de Janeiro. “Organised crime is becoming more and more powerful in Brazil, as the State becomes weaker, and policing becomes less effective.” Like episode 63, this episode is dedicated to (Dominic) Dom Phillips and Bruno Pereira who were murdered in the Amazon in June 2022 while using their skills as journalist and advocate for indigenous people respectively, to defend the Amazon against further destruction and to protect the indigenous people who live there. This podcast chat has been recorded in two episodes. This is Part 2. Part 1 can be heard in the previous podcast episode - 63.

Episode 95 features Kent Kelley. His interest in the arts was formed from fond memories observing his mother, an artist who died when he was 14. A decade later he acquired his first works of art and in 2015 began building an art collection with the express goal of documenting and preserving the culture of the African diaspora. His support for the arts includes increasing the awareness of artists of color whether they be emerging artists, mid-career artists or mid-20th Century masters excluded from the historical art canon because of their race and gender. Kent is also a finance professional and currently serves as the Chief Financial Officer of a fast growing SaaS software company. His collection includes works by Nate Lewis, Tariku Shiferaw, Genevieve Gaignard, Vaughn Spann, Nathaniel Murray Quinn, Mickalene Thomas, Kehinde Wiley, Norman Lewis, Bettye Saar, Ed Clark, Frank Bowling and Benny Andrews. Kent is also a patron of the Arts. He is a Director's Circle member at his local High Museum of Art, a Director Council member at the Studio Museum of Harlem and a member of MoMA PS1's, "Greater New Yorkers", a community of forward thinking individuals dedicated to supporting MoMA PS1's ability to be artist centric, artist driven and artist focused.

Episode Forty features Peg Alston. For nearly four decades since establishing Peg Alston Fine Arts, she has emerged as this country’s foremost private dealer specializing in works by African American artists and other artists of African descent, as well as select pieces of traditional African sculpture. In addition to handling art created by gifted emerging and mid-career artists, Peg Alston has sold works by some of the most renowned 20th Century Black masters, including Aaron Douglas, William H. Johnson, Laura Wheeler Waring, William T. Williams, Horace Pippen, Charles White, and Elizabeth Catlett. She has also sold works by some of the leading names on the contemporary scene, among them: Sam Gilliam, Richard Yarde, Betye Saar, Howardena Pindell, Frank Bowling, Ronald Burns, Edward Clark, David Driskell, Al Loving, Lubaina Himid, Oliver Johnson, Faith Ringgold, and Raymond Saunders. Peg Alston emerged on the New York art scene in 1972, a time when art by African Americans was limited. Early giants such as Romare Bearden and Norman Lewis generously served as informal mentors during the beginning stages of her career. Thanks to her keen eye and tastes, commitment to her specialty, and dedication to educating the public through lectures and activism, she has played a pivotal role in cultivating an interest all around the country for investing in African American fine art, and formed close associations with many of today’s most important African American artists. Long active with theStudio Museum in Harlem and many other major New York City cultural institutions, Peg Alston organized some of the first seminars on collecting, appraising and cataloguing African American art. Today, Peg Alston is a member of the Private Dealer’s Association (PADA) and ArtTable, and recently had the honor of being interviewed by History Makers for their visual and oral archival collection. http://www.pegalstonfinearts.com/ https://www.thehistorymakers.org/biography/peg-alston-41 https://www.instagram.com/pegalston/?hl=en

“I just kept talking calmly and pretending not to understand...I’m very happy to be robbed.” Oli started his adventures at a young age, sleeping in a tent in the garden when he was six. Growing up in Cornwall gave ample opportunity to explore the outdoors and this passion has led him to travel to remote parts of the world, including a walk across South India living on just a dollar a day and trekking through Sumatra. In this conversation Oli shares his tips with me on staying cheerful, how he survived an attempted mugging, the challenge of getting started on each expedition, and how he coped with lockdown.

Late last year in the Chinese city of Wuhan, a tiny organism migrated from an animal to a human. Three months later, COVID-19 has gone global. So far, nearly 90,000 people are known to have caught coronavirus and more than 3,000 of them – mostly already ill or elderly – have died. Here in the UK, the government has acknowledged that its ‘containment’ strategy is likely to fail and is planning for delaying the spread of the virus and mitigating its effects. But nobody knows how the virus will behave in Britain, and planning for the unpredictable is far from straightforward. If we know we can’t win this fight, but we don’t want to lose it too badly, what are we prepared to sacrifice on the battlefield? How authoritarian do we want the government to be? Must we be ready to accept martial law, the isolation of towns and cities, closed schools, factories and offices, bans on public transport, concerts and sporting events? While some would see such measures as sensible, others warn against authorities who would stamp on our civil liberties out of a nervous need to be seen to be doing something. And what about those in the ‘gig’ economy who can’t afford not to work? The moral dimension goes beyond the arguments about precaution, panic, freedom and frailty. The coronavirus dilemma could be seen as a real-life example of that age-old ethical thought experiment, the ‘Trolley Problem’. Should we do everything we can to protect the most vulnerable in our society, even if the knock on effect to the global economy has the potential to cause suffering and death for many more people further down the line? With Dr. Tony Booth, Dr. Norman Lewis, Julian Sheather & Professor Dominic Wilkinson. Producer: Dan Tierney

At UNTITLED, ART San Francisco, Leigh Raiford, Associate Professor of African American Studies at the University of California, Berkeley, conversed with gallerist Michael Rosenfeld to discuss Michael Rosenfeld Gallery's curated presentation of artists exhibited in "Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power 1963–1983." The gallery's booth presentation at UNTITLED, ART San Francisco will included works by such seminal artists as Frank Bowling, Ed Clark, Sam Gilliam, Jacob Lawrence, Norman Lewis, Betye Saar, and William T. Williams, among others. The conversation ranges in topics, from the prominence of abstraction in Soul of a Nation, the place of Africa in African American art, and the gallery's long history exhibiting Black artists as well as the "discovery" of many older Black artists in today's contemporary artworld. James Voorhies, Chair, Graduate Program in Curatorial Practice, California College of the Arts, moderated the conversation.

This episode features an onsite visit to the exhibition “Solidary & Solitary: The Joyner/Giufridda Collection,”with Alison Gass, the Director of the Smart Museum of Art in Chicago. Alison discusses the history of the exhibition and recounts the stories behind featured artworks by Bethany Collins, Leonardo Drew, Melvin Edwards, Sam Gilliam, Samuel Levi Jones, Norman Lewis, and Amanda Williams, among others. The episode also features a special conversation with the co-curator of the exhibition, Christopher Bedford, Director of the Baltimore Museum of Art.

In 1943 a young British officer, Norman Lewis, entered a war-torn Naples with the American Fifth Army. Lewis began writing in his notepad everything that happened to him during his one-year stay observing the complex social cauldron of a city that contrived every day the most incredible ways of fighting to survive. These notes turned into the masterpiece NAPLES ‘44. This film adaptation imagines Lewis returning to the city that charmed and seduced him many years later. Filmmaker Francesco Patierno combines riveting archival war footage with clips from movies set in Naples from the 1950s and 60s (featuring Marcello Mastroianni, Alan Arkin, Ernest Borgnine) and the voice of Oscar-nominated actor Benedict Cumberbatch to portray a city that was as much a victim of the war as any individual, but that has come back to life with all the charisma of Vesuvius, its very own volcano. This visionary reminiscence is made up of flashbacks between the places of the present that Lewis revisits and the stories of the past. Cumberbatch gives life to Lewis’ words through the stories and fortunes of the people he meets, by the end of this intimate nostalgic journey we can fully share with him a deep feeling for the city. Director Francesco Patierno and Producers Francesca Barra and Davide Azzolini stop by to talk about this stunning, intimate evocation of a time and place from the not-too-distant past that has much to teach us today.

In 1968 Norman Lewis wrote an article called Genocide in Brazil. The photographs that accompanied it were by Don McCullin. Lewis later said that this one piece of journalism was the great achievement of his life. It led directly to the creation of Survival International and a change in the law relating to the treatment of indigenous people in Brazil. Lewis is known as a brilliant writer - one of our best, said Graham Greene, 'not of any particular decade of our century'. He's best remembered for A Dragon Apparent and Naples '44. Don McCullin didn't travel with Norman Lewis to Brazil, but they struck up an unexpected friendship. He was like my father, the great photographer says. And in Norman Lewis's later years they worked together in Venezuela, Papua New Guinea and elsewhere. But McCullin didn't read many of his books. "I struggled through Naples '44" he admits. Yet his admiration for the way Lewis opened his eyes to the world remains undimmed. Recorded on location at McCullin's Somerset farmhouse with Norman Lewis's biographer Julian Evans. Matthew Parris presents. The producer in Bristol is Miles Warde.

Virginia Mecklenburg, senior curator, explores the work of Jacob Lawrence, Norman Lewis, Lois Mailou Jones, Melvin Edwards, and other artists featured in the exhibition "African American Art: Harlem Renaissance, Civil Rights Era, and Beyond". These artists participated in ongoing dialogues about art, black identity, and individual rights that engaged American society in the twentieth century. Using documentary realism, painterly expressionism, and the postmodern assemblage of found objects, they rewrote American history and its art.
