Episode No. 710 features curator Timothy Anglin Burgard and artist Tony Lewis. Burgard is the curator of "Wayne Thiebaud: Art Comes from Art" at the Legion of Honor in San Francisco. The exhibition details how Thiebaud drew ideas from and reimagined European and US artworks both old and new. It is on view through August 17. A superb catalogue was published by the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco in association with University of California Press. Amazon and Bookshop offer it for $54-60. Lewis is featured in "What drawing can be: four responses" at the Menil Collection's Menil Drawing Institute, Houston. The exhibition, which also offers work by Jillian Conrad, Teresita Fernández, and Constantin Luser, presents ways in which the four artists stretch the boundaries of drawing and offer new ideas of what it can be. It's on view through August 10. The gallery guide is available here. Lewis' work examines the relationship between semiotics and language as a means to confront subjects such as race, power, communication, and labor. His solo exhibition credits include the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, and the Rose Art Museum, Brandeis University. His work is in the collection of museums such as the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, the Studio Museum in Harlem, and the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

When critics hinted Maurice Prendergast was getting a little repetitive as he approached 50, he could've hung up his brushes. After all, he'd been pretty successful. Instead, he headed back to where it all began--Paris--and came away reinvigorated with “a new impulse,” as he called it.   Today's episode takes us to the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC. We'll find out how an idea that started with Congress just before the Depression led to an official modern art museum on the National Mall!   SHOW NOTES “A Long Look” themes are "Easy" by Ron Gelinas https://youtu.be/2QGe6skVzSs and “At the Cafe with You” by Onion All Stars https://pixabay.com/users/onion_all_stars-33331904/   Episode music “Scenes from Childhood, Op. 15 - IX.

Minnesota has made it's first wage theft criminal conviction. It was after a man underpaid his employees at least 37,000 dollars for their work. We talked to Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty about the office's effort to protect workers. Two mothers whose sons were killed by police in Brooklyn Center have been fighting for police reforms. But four years later, the city is reversing course on some of their initial promises. A Minnesota couple joined the show to talk about their work to make the vanilla bean trade more sustainable. In our “Thank You, Stranger” series, a group of professional women athletes rally around an 8-year-old girl. A hub for the Black community in Minneapolis, the Phyllis Wheatley Community Center, is celebrating 100 years. Our Minnesota Music Minute was “Sculpture Garden” by Semisonic.

Hans Op de Beeck is beeldend kunstenaar. In zijn werk bekijkt hij de samenleving en de zin van het leven. Zijn sculpturen, immersieve installaties en waterverftekeningen, meestal in grijstinten, zijn over de hele wereld tentoongesteld. Van het Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington tot het Screen Space in Melbourne. In zijn nieuwste tentoonstelling ‘Nachtreis', voor het Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten in Antwerpen, stappen bezoekers een ruimte vol sculpturen over fictieve taferelen in de nacht binnen. Femke van der Laan gaat met Hans Op de Beeck in gesprek.

Dan starts this week with a very bizarre story. It's hard to even explain but we are off to Finland to review a tale about a sculpture garden. Then we head to Saudi Arabia to explore the lore around Bride of the Red Sea. Lynze really goes for it this week with five stories! They are short and quite varied. Her first two deal with family members sticking around after their deaths in very small, kind but still eery ways. Then, because it's March, she offers us a little Leprechaun tale. Then, we hear a tale of poltergeist activity not surrounding an angsty teen, which feels new. Lastly, a shadow figure that seems to leave behind some lasting effects. March Bad Magic Donation: This month, we are sending $11,800 to The AP.

Faye Toogood is perhaps best known for her Roly-Poly chair, among the more famous pieces of furniture to come out of the 2010s and take over the zeitgeist, but the London-based designer's artistry and craft runs much deeper and spans much wider. She began finding, collecting, cataloging, producing, and editing her “assemblages” long before she ever had a name for them, and her design career has been marked by exactly that, beginning with the debut of Assemblage 1 (2010) and through to her latest, Assemblage 8: Palette (2024). On the whole, Toogood's creations serve as material investigations and discipline-defying attempts to better understand herself. Without formal training in design, Toogood—who was the Designer of the Year at the Maison&Objet design fair in Paris this past January and the Stockholm Furniture Fair's Guest of Honor in February—uses what she describes as the feeling of being “a fraud in the room” to her advantage. Through her work, she is an enigma; with projects across furniture, interiors, fashion, and homewares, she's unwilling to be defined by a single output and has instead built a multilayered practice and belief system that allows her to be “all heart and hands.” On this week's Time Sensitive—our debut of Season 11—Toogood talks about the acts of creation and connection, and how each underscores the enduring play that's ever-present in her work.Special thanks to our Season 11 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Faye ToogoodToogood[3:49] Assemblage 1[7:43] Assemblage 7[13:28] Seamus Heaney[14:50] Isamu Noguchi[14:50] Kan Yasuda[17:23] Roly-Poly chair[18:06] Rachel Whiteread[20:07] Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden[22:45] Matisse Chapel[25:40] “Ways of Seeing”[29:57] “Womanifesto!”[36:55] Assemblage 8[52:17] “The World of Interiors”

Jazz in the Garden, Episode Three: “Return to the Garden” An overwhelmingly popular series of jazz concerts in MoMA's Sculpture Garden in 1985 proved…a little too popular, and it would be nearly a decade before live jazz was once again a regular occurrence at the Museum. In our third and final episode, hear about a new generation of musicians who revived the legacy of jazz at the Museum in the 1990s, and brought it into the 21st century.

Antonia Wright is an award-winning Cuban American multimedia artist based in Miami, FL whose work has been exhibited all over the world, from the Hirschhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C. and the Pérez Art Museum in her hometown to the Havana Biennial and the Faena Arts Center in Buenos Aires. The focus of her work tends to be the human body and how it responds to extremes of emotion, control and violence promulgated by systems of power, and in the past, she has often used her own body — often in startling and violent ways — to illustrate her themes. Her tools are varied, including video, photography, light and sculpture, and are constantly evolving. In 2021 she transformed a cement mixer into a giant musical instrument for her project “Not Yet Paved,” and recently she has been creating site-specific installations with the kinds of barricades that have long been used as methods of crowd control at protests the world over.Her interest in examining the autonomy – and lack thereof – of the human body, particularly the female body, extends to her personal life. She has long been an advocate and activist for reproductive rights and serves on the board of Planned Parenthood of South, East and North Florida.Art Restart was eager to speak with Antonia soon after Florida banned abortion after six weeks of gestation. We wanted to hear how a changemaking artist continued or recommitted to her work when the sociopolitical winds around her shifted dramatically. In this interview she explains how she's long channeled her anger into her practice and describes how she remains committed to the curiosity and fearlessness that initially launched her from poetry into performance and installation art.https://antoniawright.com/

Jazz in the Garden, Episode One: “In the Beginning” Our story begins on June 16, 1960, when George Wein and the Storyville Sextet played the first jazz concert in MoMA's Sculpture Garden—and launched more than a decade of legendary performances and recordings from some of the leading lights of jazz, including Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, and Sonny Rollins. In this episode, you'll hear about the first era of jazz at MoMA from some of the musicians who were there.

The combining of sculpture and gardens dates back centuries if not millennia, and there are few public gardens I know of that do not incorporate sculpture into their aesthetics and identity at some point. This week we are in conversation with an exemplary public garden, whose identity grows out of this pairing: the art of horticulture and the art of sculpture. The Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park in Grand Rapids, Michigan is “proudly ranked as one of the top 45 most visited museums in the world” and their award winning gardens “showcase over 200 captivating sculptures,” inviting visitor to experience what they see as the “perfect blend of art and nature.” We're joined this week by Steve LaWarre, the Vice President of Horticulture at Frederick Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park to share more. Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you so much for listening over the years, and we hope you'll support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow even more of these types of conversations. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud, iTunes, and Google Podcasts. To read more and for many more photos please visit www.cultivatingplace.com.

Mathieu Malouf "I am genuinely trying to make beautiful paintings. Not beautiful by contemporary standards of beauty, but something more atemporal or enduring. My paintings are not anchored in any particular period. I like art that is beautiful, even if that makes no sense in our era. No one discusses whether things are beautiful or not anymore. It's more difficult to paint women than men. I have only painted men—nude men, gay men, famous men. I think men can be more ugly and weird, and it doesn't really matter; they are more forgiving. But painting women is more difficult. I started noticing how intensely omnipresent women were in art, and I thought that I probably have something to learn from that; by trying to paint women, maybe I'll discover why. It is a way for me to learn about something that people have traditionally thought is beautiful. Painting women is a way to address art history itself. The Odalisque as a historical genre intrigues me. This was a woman who was essentially enslaved, but she was always richly adorned and confidently portrayed. She looked empowered to me, like Manet's Olympia. The women in my paintings are not goofy like some of my male subjects tend to be. They are not cynical or sarcastic. Maybe painting beautiful women right now is like a comedian today telling a joke from the 1920s. Penguins have been lingering in my mind for a while. Unlike women, there are not a lot of penguins in art, maybe in a Sigmar Polke. My attraction to them began as a formal one. They are very aesthetically minimal: only three colors and simple shapes. They are crisp and uncomplicated. My painted penguins are materially simple, they are loose and flat, painted in acrylic–unlike the women, who are painted in oil and highly modeled. These two subjects are hard to paint at once, as they occupy different parts of the brain. Maybe there is an allegory there."  - Mathieu Malouf Malouf lives and works in New York. He has been featured in exhibitions at institutions such as Swiss Institute, New York (2018); Le Consortium, Dijon (2018); LUMA Foundation, Zürich (2017); Artists Space, New York (2017); Stavanger Art Museum (2014); Kunsthalle Lüneburg, (2014); and SculptureCenter, New York (2012). Work by the artist is included in museum collections worldwide, including the Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art, Oslo; Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, DC; and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York.

Dame Barbara Hepworth (1903 - 1974) was a Sculptor and Artist who was one of the early pioneers of abstract sculpture  in England.  Many of her works incorporated lyrical forms with close connection to the feeling and form of the materials that she used in her work making Barbara Hepworth one of the most influential sculptors of the mid-20th century. At the breakout of World War II Barbara Hepworth moved from London to Cornwall with her husband Ben Nicholson and their young family. Setting up a home and studios in the buildings and gardens of Trewyn studios in St Ives where she lived and worked from 1949 until her death in 1975. Following her death, her home, studio and garden became the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden. RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey recently visited St Ives and went on a guided touch tour of some of Barbara Hepworth's work that is on display in the museum and gardens of the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden. The guided touch tour of the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden was lead by trained guides Sarah and Rose included tours of; Infant - wood carved sculpture of a baby 1929, Four Square Walk Through - bronze squares 1966 and Poised Form - Purbeck marble on concrete base 1951 - 52, re-worked 1957.  Toby was also joined by Cassie Penn, Assistant Curator of Public programmes at Tate St Ives who gave a bit of background and history to the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, why Barbara Hepworth moved down to St Ives at the beginning of World War II along with the history of the buildings and garden that became her home and studio and now the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden and talking about her favourite examples of Barbara Hepworth's work.   The Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden in St Ives, Cornwall is managed by Tate St Ives and during the year offers bookable guided touch tours of many of Barbara Hepworth's work which is on display in the museum and Garden. Tours need to be booked in advance by calling 01736 791 177 and more details about the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden can be found on the following pages of the Tate website - https://www.tate.org.uk/visit/tate-st-ives/barbara-hepworth-museum-and-sculpture-garden (Image shows Four Square Walk Though, a 4.2 meter tall bronze sculpture by Barbara Hepworth made in 1966. The sculpture consists of a base square and 4 separate bronze squares with circles cut into them stacked on top. Two squares face each other on opposite sides of the base with two perpendicular squares stacked on top, above head height. There is a child in the bottom right corner of the photograph looking up towards the top of the sculpture)

Ep.182 features MICHAELA YEARWOOD-DAN. Throughout paintings, works on paper, ceramics, and site-specific mural and sound installations, Michaela Yearwood-Dan (b. 1994; London, UK) endeavors to build spaces of queer community, abundance, and joy. Yearwood-Dan's singular visual language draws on a diverse range of influences, including Blackness, queerness, femininity, healing rituals, and carnival culture. Moving freely between media, Yearwood-Dan embeds botanical motifs and diaristic meditations within brushy abstract forms and heavy drips of paint. From the monumental scale of her paintings to the more intimate scale of her ceramics and works on paper, Yearwood-Dan's practice frequently reflects an inviting domesticity. Resisting any singular definition of identity, the artist explores the possibilities of creating spaces—physical, pastoral, metaphorical—that allow for unlimited and unbounded ways of being. Lush and brightly hued, Yearwood-Dan's work is at once personal and political. She often engages colors and materials for their symbolic associations—from the hints of the oranges, pinks, purples, and blues of the lesbian and bisexual pride flags mingling through the compositions to the queer histories of the ceramic carnation and pansy petals collaged into her recent paintings. Language intertwines with botanical motifs throughout Yearwood-Dan's work: abstract habitats teem with painted plant life while live houseplants grow out of wall-mounted ceramics. Within the paintings, she inscribes lines of text—pulled from song lyrics, poetry, or her own diaristic writings. These meditations, appearing at various scales and degrees of legibility, are at once insightful and funny, confident, and questioning. Her words beckon the viewer into a vivid, welcoming world of paradox, play, and contemplation formed within an atmosphere of swirling forms and brilliant chromaticity. Yearwood-Dan's work has been shown at the Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati, OH; Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, AZ; the Green Family Art Foundation, Dallas, TX; Palazzo Monti, Brescia, Italy; and the Museum of Contemporary African Art, Marrakesh, Morocco, among others. Her work is in the permanent collections of the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington D.C.; Institute of Contemporary Art Miami, FL; the Crocker Art Museum, Sacramento, CA; the Jorge M. Perez Collection, Miami, FL; and the Columbus Museum of Art and the Pizzuti Collection, Columbus, OH. In 2022, she produced her first public mural installation for Queercircle, London, UK. She has participated in a range of fellowships and residencies, including the Palazzo Monti Residency, Brescia, Italy, and Bloomberg New Contemporaries in Partnership with Sarabande: The Lee Alexander McQueen Foundation, London, UK. The artist received her B.A. from the University of Brighton in 2016. Yearwood-Dan lives and works in London. Please visit cerebralwomen.com for her expanded bio. Thank you.

In another life, the German-born architect Annabelle Selldorf might have been a painter or a profile writer. In this one, she expresses her proclivity for portraiture as the principal of the New York–based firm Selldorf Architects, which she founded in 1988. Renowned for its work in the art world—from galleries for the likes of David Zwirner and Hauser & Wirth to cultural institutions including The Frick Collection in New York, the National Gallery in London, and the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C.—Selldorf's firm has also designed a wide variety of residential projects and civic buildings. Many of these designs serve as architectural depictions of their respective clients, revealing each one's inner nature and underlying ethos.On this episode, Selldorf discusses the links she sees between Slow Food and her architecture, the intuitive aspects of form-making, and why she considers architecture “the mother of all arts.”Special thanks to our Season 8 sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes: [00:31] Selldorf Architects[08:19] The Frick Collection[10:42] Lucian Freud[17:45] Dia Beacon[18:43] Art Gallery of Ontario expansion[18:54] Two Row[18:57] Diamond Schmitt[26:08] Sunset Park Material Recovery Facility[30:03] CSO Red Hook[30:05] CSO Owls Head[34:31] National Gallery, London[35:17] One Domino Park[37:15] John Russell Pope[37:28] Thomas Hastings[43:13] I.M.

Episode No. 625A remembers artist Robert Irwin. Nota bene: Episode No. 625B, which will post here on the evening of Friday, October 27, will feature artists Tammy Nguyen and Jammie Holmes. Irwin, a painter and anti-sculptor who substantially invented the Light and Space movement (and responses to it as a teacher), died on October 25, 2023. He was 95. This program remembers Irwin with two curators who worked with him, and by re-playing Irwin's two appearances on The Modern Art Notes Podcast. Michael Auping retired from the chief curatorship of The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth in 2017 after curatorial stints at the University Art Museum, University of California, Berkeley, the Ringling Museum of Art, Sarasota, Fla., and the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, NY. He organized "Robert Irwin / Matrix 15" for what is now the Berkeley Art Museum & Pacific Film Archive in 1978. Evelyn Hankins is head curator at the Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington DC. She organized "Robert Irwin: All the Rules Will Change," a survey of Irwin's transition from painting to installation, in 2016. The two Irwin interview segments on the program are from 2012's Episode No. 26; and 2016's Episode No. 231.

I had Christine Mollring on today. For those who don't know who she is, you need to. Christine is one of the backbones of Western art. She started her own gallery early on in the 1970s and owned Trailside Gallery until about 94. Think back on what kind of individuals were running Western art galleries back in that era. They were pretty much all men.  We talked about it a little, not a lot, because she felt like it was just what she had to do. It didn't stop her from becoming the best of the best. Christine represented some real heavy hitters back then too. People like Charles Loloma who was a very important Hopi artist and silversmith.So I think you'll have a great time. I really enjoyed it. Christine is a remarkable person and we're so fortunate to have her in the world of Western and native art. Christine Mollring on episode 256 of Art Dealer Diaries Podcast.

Nearly a century ago, famed photographer and innovator Emile Brunel purchased Boiceville's Brown Hotel and transformed it into Le Chalet Indien, a world-class resort frequented by famed artists and politicians of the day. Brunel's fascination with Native American culture manifested in an adjoining sculpture park, which still stands and is now stewarded by the Friends of Brunel Park, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Even concrete is no match for a hundred years of Catskills weather, though, and the sculptures and totems Brunel left behind were in desperate need of restoration. So, co-founders Cynthia and Evgeny Nikitin organized a matching donation fundraising campaign to save the collection for future generations.  Anthony Mennella and his team were hired to rehabilitate the largest of the sculptures, transforming the space from a "delightful ruin," to a welcoming, lush garden of plants and sculpted works. Join us at Brunel Park, where we met up with co-founder Cynthia Nikitin and mason Anthony Mennella. Then, make a point to see this iconic roadside attraction for yourself!

Robert Adanto is a documentary film maker who had made 5 films about art, many of them featuring female artists, including "The F-Word," a documentary on fourth wave feminist artists in Brooklyn, which he started making 10 years ago. Particularly when women are both the artist and the muse, and where women use their body in their art, we come to the challenge of taking women seriously and fitting in the art world. A fellow of the Sundance Institute Documentary Program, Robert Adanto is interested in exploring how artists respond to rapid, sometimes catastrophic change. His award-winning films have looked at China's explosive contemporary art scene (The Rising Tide 2008), the lives and works of Iranian female artists (Pearls on the Ocean Floor 2010), the impact of Hurricane Katrina on the lives of New Orleans-based artists (City of Memory 2014), and radical "4th wave" feminist performance in Brooklyn (The F Word 2015). His most recent project - Born Just Now, explores the art and life of the Serbian artist Marta Jovanovic. The film received the Dziga Vertov Award for Best Documentary Feature at the Chicago International Arthouse Film Festival and was also named Best Feature Documentary at Arte NonStop Film Festival in Bueno Aires, Argentina. Robert's films have enjoyed screenings at over 40 international film festivals and have been presented at the Smithsonian Institution's Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington D.C., the National Center for Contemporary Art in Moscow, The MFA Boston, LACMA, and the National Museum of Australia in Canberra, amongst others. He earned his M.F.A. at NYU Tisch School of the Arts. Click here for the transcript. Show notes: "The F-Word" Trailer

Our Main Event this week is a trip to the Glenstone Museum in North Potomac, MD with my friend EZZAT SALEH OBAID, a DC area based Photographer, Filmmaker, and Coffee Maker. We talk about the creation of community through art, being an outsider, Punk Music in 80s & 90s DC, and the power of metaphor. And we journey to Glenstone - a beautiful and uneasy fortress of art, and incredible juxtaposition of peaceful nature with brutalist bricks. Glenstone is a combination Museum, Arts Installation, Sculpture Garden, and Gallery centered inside a compound that has to be seen to believed. The whole experience is a vibe that blends natural serenity with an ominous tension, and themes of confinement, surveillance, and defense.  And we have our very first Existential Question of the week. Pro Wrestlers ISAIAH FRAZIER, SAGE MATTHEWS, and THE BOAR each make their Collected Possibilities debut to share what keeps them up at night, as they answer "What do you fear?" Is Glenstone something you have to do before you die? Listen and find out!

Jonas Wood makes paintings that can be classified as a variety of different genres, including portraits, still lifes, landscapes, and interior scenes. In each of these, however, his work reflects an instantly recognizable vision of the contemporary world, as well as a personal approach to subject matter defined by his affinities and experiences. Its warmth is matched by a quasi-abstract logic that breaks pictures down into layered compositions of geometry, pattern, and color. Wood works at every scale, and maintains active drawing and printmaking practices, each of which helps him generate techniques that he eventually uses in paintings. Conjuring depth using flat forms—his process involves collage-based studies in which he works with photographs, breaking images apart and reassembling them—Wood probes the boundary between the new and the familiar, integrating emotionally resonant material from everyday life. Jonas Wood has been the subject of solo and two-person exhibitions at the Dallas Museum of Art (2019); Museum Voorlinden, Wassenaar, the Netherlands (with Shio Kusaka, 2017); Lever House, New York (2014); and Hammer Museum, Los Angeles (2010). Other solo projects include Still Life with Two Owls, a monumental picture covering the façade of The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (2016— 2018); Shelf Still Life, High Line Billboard, High Line Art, New York (2014); and LAXART Billboard and Façade, LAXART, Los Angeles (2014). Recent group exhibitions include Since Unveiling: Selected Acquisitions of a Decade, The Broad, Los Angeles (2021–2022); Psychic Wounds: On Art and Trauma, The Warehouse, Dallas (2020); One Day at a Time: Manny Farber and Termite Art, The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (2018); and Los Angeles: A Fiction, Astrup Fearnley Museet, Oslo (2016) and Musée d'art contemporain de Lyon, France (2017). His work is in the permanent collections of many institutions, including the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C.; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Guggenheim Museum, New York; The Broad, Los Angeles; Museum of Modern Art, New York; and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. In 2019, Phaidon published the first monograph dedicated to Wood's paintings and drawings. Wood lives and works in Los Angeles. He is represented by David Kordansky Gallery and Gagosian.Here is what you can expect on this week's show:Introduction 1:42 The American Dream Through ArtA Mixed Games RomanceA Love for PokerLearning DisabilitiesIntroducing Art to Mixed GamesLife Outside of Art and Partnering with Triton PokerStrategy in Art and Poker▬ Winning the Game of Life ▬▬▬▬▬▬Check out other "Winning the Game of Life" episodes:► https://www.youtube.com/c/WinningTheGameofLifeConnect with Jonas Wood:Instagram: @jonasbrwoodFollow "Jungleman" Dan Cates on social:Website: https://www.wtgol.comInstagram: @wtgolpodcast@thedancatesTwitter: @junglemandanPhoto Credit for Jonas Wood Headshot: Aubrey Mayer

Before you listen to this episode, try to be near something made of wood that means something to you, or simply feels nice. A piece of furniture or a hand-carved object works. The soundscape featured in this episode is also better listened to with company, so… get a listening buddy if you can!  On June 4th and 5th of 2022, we exhibited an interactive installation of Material Feels, titled Conversations with the Material World, as a part of Sound Scene, at the Hirschhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington D.C. The work features four sculptures, each accompanied by a narrated soundscape designed with the material, maker and process in mind. The wooden arch referenced in this episode was created by Dominque Tutwiler; to see what the sculpture looked like, check out pictures of the on Instagram, @materialfeels, or images on the podcast's website, www.materialfeelspodcast.com.     Learn more about Dominique's work as a furniture designer: https://www.oaksmithfurniture.com/   Learn more about Sound Scene: https://soundscenefest.org/about/   Check out a virtual tour of the piece on the Material Feels Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CebVWcIlsAf/?hl=en
