Surfer, artist, and filmmaker Thomas Campbell's unique perspective was informed by upbringing in Dana Point, California, his background as a skateboarder, and his experience serving as editor of Skateboarder magazine in the 1990s. His films The Seedling (1999), Sprout (2004), and The Present (2009), which function loosely as a trilogy, aestheticize surfing on the basis of its inherent capacity for playfulness, beauty, and style, standing in contrast to a society increasingly dominated by industry and consumption. Today, Campbell continues to work as a practicing filmmaker, artist, and producer, and is currently preparing for an upcoming solo exhibition at Utah Museum of Contemporary Art. In this episode, Campbell sits down with show host Jamie Brisick to talk about the divergent cultural possibilities between surfing and skating, the importance of having a strong work ethic, being driven by curiosity, the surfing industrial complex, and finding creativity in quietude.

Charlotte Bell has been practicing yoga since 1982, and began teaching in 1986. She has established and taught regular classes along Utah's Wasatch Front, and in California and Hawaii. She also teaches workshops, teacher trainings, and yoga for cancer patients and their families at Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City. She has taught at national yoga conferences and international yoga teacher trainings and on women's river trips on the Green and Colorado rivers. Certified by B.K.S. Iyengar in 1989, she enjoys learning from teachers of many different yogic perspectives. Charlotte's asana teaching has been most influenced by her two guiding teachers, Donna Farhi and Judith Hanson Lasater. She received her 500-hour certification from Yoga Alliance in 2000, and is currently registered at the organization's highest level, E-RYT-500. Vipassana meditation practice has had the most profound influence on Charlotte's work. She began her practice in 1986, and has attended many 10-and 30-day meditation retreats since then. Her practice has been guided by her spiritual mentors, Pujari and Abhilasha Keays of the Last Resort in Cedar Breaks, Utah, since 1985. In recent years, she has made an annual trip to Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Woodacre, California, to sit an 18-day combined metta (kindness) and insight meditation retreat. Charlotte teaches mindfulness classes online, and at the Utah Museum of Fine Arts and Red Butte Garden. All these influences combine to form an evolving style of yoga that acknowledges the alignment principles of the Iyengar system while applying mindful attention to gain insight into the truth of each individual's asana practice rather than striving for preconceived goals. She encourages students to explore and trust their own experience in their asana practice, and enjoys learning new perspectives from her students. In addition to teaching yoga and meditation, Charlotte writes feature stories for several publications, including Catalyst Magazine, Yoga U Online and the Hugger Mugger Yoga blog. Her articles have appeared in Yoga Journal and Yoga International. She has written feature articles for the Telluride Bluegrass Festival's program since the early 1990s, and has participated in research and writing for a book about the festival's history. In 2007 Rodmell Press (now a part of Shambhala Publications) published her first book, Mindful Yoga, Mindful Life: A Guide for Everyday Practice.The book blends the principles of mindfulness with the practice of Patanjali's Eight Limbs of Yoga. Her second book, Yoga for Meditators, was published by Rodmell Press in 2012 and was one of 10 books recommended in Yoga Journal magazine's “Yoga Books of 2012” list. Her most recent book, Hip-Healthy Asana: A Yoga Practitioner's Guide to Protecting the Hips and Avoiding SI Joint Pain, was published in 2018 by Shambhala Publications. Charlotte plays oboe and English horn in the Salt Lake Symphony; the woodwind quintet, Scherzando Winds; the chamber folk ensemble, blue haiku; and with blue haiku, Kate MacLeod and Hal Cannon in the folk sextet, Red Rock Rondo. Red Rock Rondo's 2009 DVD has won two Emmy awards and an award from the National Educational Television Association.
Ep.150 features Melissa Joseph (b. 1980, Saint Marys PA), a New York based artist and independent curator.

Her work has been shown at the Delaware Contemporary, Woodmere Art Museum, Utah Museum of Contemporary Art, Brattleboro Museum and Art Center, Jeffrey Deitch Projects, MOCA Arlington, and List Gallery at Swarthmore College.

New on the pod! Humbled and honored to welcome international artist, activist, educator, and documentary filmmaker EMILY HANAKO MOMOHARA. Listen in as we explore 1940's AAPI feminism, patriotism, resilience, perseverance, leadership, and “gaman (我慢)” – Japanese for “silent endurance” from Zen Buddhist origin meaning "enduring the seemingly unbearable with patience and dignity.” Tune in to a riveting behind-the-scenes glimpse into Momohara's upcoming film premiere of NAMBA, inspired by the true story of May Namba. From Japanese American grandparent FBI files to incarcerated Japanese American Omikuji cookie makers in the San Francisco Bay area unexpectedly inspiring counter-culture fortune cookie branding and marketing, we share tales of Momohara's Okinawan family and my Filipino family journey to the States by way of Hawaiian pineapple plantations. (I promise you will never look at a fortune cookie or pineapple the same way again!) A true time capsule tribute, Momohara masterfully transforms multi-generational trauma, revealing how her own family's incarceration story intertwines with May and May's granddaughter, Miyako. NAMBA will premiere at Cincinnati's National Underground Freedom Center Harriet Tubman Theater on July 16th with additional screenings at Seattle's Wing Luke Asian Art Museum Takeuchi Story Theatre on July 30th, and future Portland and virtual dates forthcoming. NAMBA is a coming-of-age journey in the midst of war and bravery, introducing us to May Namba, a Japanese American woman incarcerated during WWII, a portion of American history not often told. We learn the story of May Namba, narrated by her granddaughter Miyako Namba. Beginning with the summer of 1941, Momohara chronicles the bombing of Pearl Harbor and President Franklin Roosevelt's Executive Order 9066 that sent Japanese Americans to prison camps, and the impact it had on those Americans. May was incarcerated in Minidoka, Idaho, one of 10 such prison camps. Of Japanese-British-American ancestry, EMILY HANAKO MOMOHARA grew up outside of Seattle, Washington in a mixed-race family. Her work centers around issues of heritage, multiculturalism, immigration, and social justice. Momohara has exhibited internationally including in the Changjiang International Photography & Video Biennale, Chongqing, China; a 2-person exhibition at the Japanese American National Museum titled Sugar Islands; and the Okinawa Prefectural Museum in Naha, Japan. Momohara was featured in a number of public art projects such as the For Freedoms 50 State Initiative billboard campaign and 2021 AAPI Heritage Month program. Her billboards have been featured at the International Center for Photography, NY; Utah Museum of Contemporary Art; and StandBy in Tokyo, Japan. She serves as Associate Professor of Studio Art at the Academy of Cincinnati. She is currently a board of trustee at the Cincinnati Contemporary Art Center and member of Ohio Progressive Asian Women's Leadership (OPAWL).

In 2020 the Baltimore Museum of Art appointed their first native curator, Darienne Turner, Assistant Curator of Indigenous Art of the Americas. Her hire signaled a commitment by the museum to promote and interpret the art of indigenous peoples of the Americas. A member of the Yurok Tribe of California, Darienne is one of the few native curators of native art in U.S. museums. In our conversation, she discusses her role and the challenges in presenting and collecting native art in an institutional context and her responsibility to tell the stories of native peoples thoughtfully and reverently. When we spoke with Darienne in December 2020, the museum was partially closed. The only spaces open to the public were the gift shop and a portion of the first floor where her first exhibition at the museum, Stripes, and Stars: Reclaiming Lakota Independence (October 11, 2020 — March 28, 2021), was installed. The exhibition presented a small selection of objects from the museum's collection produced by the Lakota peoples of South Dakota. Confined to reservations by the late 19th century, the makers of these objects incorporated the American flag in their detailed beadwork. On caps and vests worn by children, boots, pouches, and a monumental hood for a horse, these emblems of the flag served as a talisman and a way for the Lakota youth to participate in cultural activities which had previously been outlawed. Her exhibition was the first in what we hope will be many that celebrate the achievement of native makers of the Americas. The Baltimore Museum of Art is one of the leading U.S. encyclopedic museums committed to collecting and promoting inclusivity. Being a majority-minority city, Baltimore and the museum is a model for the future of U.S. culture and institutions.Learn more about the museum and her exhibition here:Exhibition page: https://artbma.org/exhibition/stripes-and-stars-reclaiming-lakota-independenceExhibition Installation Videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrgHLLqglkoTalk with Darienne Turner and Sheldon Raymore, member of the Cheyenne River Sioux Nation and multidisciplinary artist and performer, on the occasion of the exhibition Stripes and Stars: Reclaiming Lakota Independence at the BMA.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIycn3OzPMUPress: 'We Were White and Sleepy Before'—The Baltimore Museum of Art's Radical Makeover – Wall Street Journal, 11/22/19.About Darienne:Darienne is the Assistant Curator of Indigenous Art of the Americas at the Baltimore Museum of Art, is a member of the Yurok Tribe of California, and has taught in MICA's Graphic Design Department since 2017.

As an illustrator, she has published with a variety of publications, including Covenant Communications, Hickman Music Editions, and the National Society for John Steinbeck. In 2018 she received the Moon Beam children's book Gold Medal Award. Holly has taught as adjunct faculty at Utah Valley University and is currently an instructor of record at the University of Utah. Her work has been featured in group exhibitions at the East Idaho Museum of Art, the UVU Faculty Show at the Woodbury Gallery of Art, and the Heming Village Juried Exhibition. She presented a solo show at L.E. and Thelma E. Stephens Performing Arts Center in 2018, and is currently collaborating on a group exhibition titled A Sense of Place, sponsored by the Utah Museum of Fine Arts. Holly is currently an MFA candidate at The University of Utah. Her thesis exhibition, Reclaiming Motherhood: I Will Not Vanish, will open May 24th at the Gittins Gallery at the University of Utah. The show focuses on resilience, reclaiming motherhood/personhood and dealing with past trauma. She uses acrylic paint and charcoal to create an atmosphere partially removed from reality through a fantastical lens, where images and motifs transition and shapeshift through a narrative journey of a central character.

With a successful opening ceremony last friday, the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art opened its doors to the public for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic shut down back in March of 2020. The award-winning museum has featured world-renowed conemporary artists, and the current exhibit from Horacio Rodriguez: Radicalized Relics blends ancient indigenous structures and artifacts with modern 3D scanning/printing technology in order to accentuate the commodification of indigenous art and traditions which are co-opted for financial gain and bring to light the corporate and colonial exploitation of indigenous people's cultural history no mater the means required. Con una exitosa apertura el viernes pasádo, el Muséo de Arte Contemporaneo de Utah (UMOCA) abrió sus puertas al público por la primera vez desde el cierre de negocios debido a la pandemia del COVID-19 en marzo del 2020.

Museums are often hubs for culture and visual arts. A place to engage – in physical space – with curated collections. So what do you do when there’s a pandemic and your visitors can’t, well…visit? On the latest Art Talks, host Richard Codd wanted to find out. He speaks with Gretchen Dietrich, executive director of the Utah Museum of Fine Arts and Forrest Rodgers, executive director of the Moab Museum. Tune in and learn how each organization pivoted during the pandemic, finding new and creative ways to engage with the public over their collections and resources.
One of the originators of the Western Pop Art movement, Billy Schenck incorporates techniques from Photorealism with a Pop Art sensibility to both exalt and poke fun at images of the West. Schenck is known for utilizing cinematic imagery reproduced in a flattened, reductivist style, where colors are displayed side-by-side rather than blended or shadowed. In the August 2014 issue of SouthwestArt magazine, his work was described as “a stance … a pendulum between the romantic and the irreverent.” Schenck’s artwork is now in 48 museum collections, including Smithsonian Institution, Denver Art Museum, The Autry Museum of Western Heritage, Booth Western Art Museum, Tucson Museum of Art, Phoenix Art Museum, the Mesa Southwest Museum, Museum of the Southwest, Midland TX, Albuquerque Fine Arts Museum and the New Mexico Museum of Art. Private collections include the estate of Malcolm Forbes, Laurance Rockefeller, the estate of Fritz Scholder, and Sylvester Stallone. Corporate collections include American Airlines, IBM, Sony, and Saatchi & Saatchi. With over 100 solo shows in the U.S. and Europe, career highlights include the Denver Art Museum’s 2011 Western Horizons, the 2013 Utah Museum of Fine Art’s exhibit Bierstadt to Warhol: American Indians in the West, and Masters of the American West Fine Art Exhibition, at the Autry National Center in Los Angeles. A genuine cowboy himself, Schenck is a ranch-sorting world champion and the proprietor of the Double Standard Ranch in Santa Fe, New Mexico, his home for the past two decades. https://blueraingallery.com/artists/billy-schenck Produced by Leah Garcia Music by Mozart Gabriel Abeyta

"There is suddenly, in some ways, a whole new branch, a whole new subject for photography…How will notions of isolation, loneliness, communication…be addressed photographically and are those photographic subjects? " Roula Seikaly and I recorded at the SPE Conference in Houston just before everything began to be cancelled and public places were shut down. I called Roula to start the show because of all of the changes since we recorded, so there is a phone conversation at the start to check-in and then the original recording follows. Roula has been involved as a writer and curator with so many great organizations that you know and love such as Humble Arts Foundation, Hyperallergic, and Saint Lucy. We talk about her show, Portraits Without People at Axis Gallery, which was cut short by the pandemic and we talk a lot about teaching, photo history, the exhibition on cliché, Tropes Gone Wild, up now on the Humble Arts site, the community at SPE, and many more things. Roula Seikaly is the Senior Editor at Humble Arts Foundation and a writer and independent curator based in Berkley California. Her writing is featured on platforms including Aperture, Saint Lucy, Strange Fire Collective, Temporary Art Review, and SF Camerawork. She has curated exhibitions at the Utah Museum of Fine Arts, the Wattis Institute for Contemporary Arts, Triple Base Gallery, and SOMArts. Her curatorial practice addresses contemporary photography and new media, social justice efforts in contemporary art and exhibition making. She regularly contributes to print and online platforms including Hyperallergic, Photograph, BOMB, and KQED Arts.

Where Does Mitt Romney's Revolt Leave Him With the Republican Party? (0:30)Guest: McKay Coppins, Staff Writer, The Atlantic, Author of “The Wilderness”It's a Mitt moment. Again. The former Republican Presidential candidate is now the first senator in US history to vote to remove a president of his own party from office. Before Utah Senator Mitt Romney cast his vote to convict President Trump of abusing his power, he arranged a series of interviews with reporters to explain why. For Some, Meditation Has Negative Side Effects (18:50)Guest: Willoughby Britton, PhD, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Human Behavior, Director of the Clinical and Affective Neuroscience Laboratory, Brown UniversityIt's become so easy to dabble in meditation that the percentage of American adults who've given it a try has more than tripled in recent years. All you need is a smartphone app or a YouTube video. It's a cheap way to improve your state of mind, and scientific experiments show it can actually rewire your brain in helpful ways. Which begs the question, is it safe? If it's changing your body and mind, is this the kind of thing people ought to be doing unsupervised? Does Racial Bias Drive Prosecutors to Punish Blacks More Harshly? (35:56)Guest: Christopher Robertson, Professor of Law, University of ArizonaIn America's justice system, blacks are imprisoned at almost four times the rate of whites and receive longer prison sentences. How much of that disparity is a result of biased prosecutors deciding to more harshly punish people of color? Is Caffeine Bad for Your Kids? (50:34)Guest: Jennifer L. Temple, Director of the Nutrition and Health Research Laboratory, University at BuffaloWhat's the story with kids and caffeine? Does it really stunt growth? Should you worry if your teen likes energy drinks? How guilty should you feel when you occasionally cave to your 10-year old's pleas and let him have a Dr. Pepper? Now Introducing…the Allosaurus Jimmadseni (1:05:16)Guest: Mark Loewen, Paleontologist, University of UtahMore than 150 million years ago, the Allosaurus walked the earth. It's one of the biggest predatory dinosaurs that existed, and also one of the most plentiful fossils out there, making it uniquely useful for study. All these specimens have helped paleontologists from the Utah Museum of Natural History identify a new species of allosaur, called the Allosaurus Jimmadseni. When Complaining Is Good for You (1:25:39)Guest: Robin Kowalski, Professor of Psychology, Clemson University“No complaining.” That was the one hard-and-fast rule for all outings in Julie's family. Nobody likes a complainer. But we all do it - maybe not in the high-pitched whine of a toddler, but think about the venting you do with someone you're close to, or the dissatisfaction you lodge with a business that disappoints you. If complaining is so common, it can't be all bad, can it?

In what will likely be the last interview for 2019, today I'm speaking with Krista Svalbonas. Krista not only took part in the Jarvis Dooney Postcard Salon but also surprised me in Arles when she booked me to review her portfolio during the opening week of the festival. Krista shares a lot of insight into her project about displaced person camps in Germany which she has been documenting for the past few years, her unique photographic process, as well as how this personal story and shared history is very relevant in these uncertain times.----------Krista Svalbonas (b.1977, USA) holds a BFA Photography (Syracuse University) and an MFA Interdisciplinary (SUNY New Paltz). Her work has been exhibited in a number of exhibitions including at the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art, Howard Yezerski Gallery in Boston, Klompching Gallery and ISE Cultural Foundation in New York. Her work has been collected in a number of private collections, as well as the Cesis Art Museum in Latvia.

I absolutely love the work of artist Carly Glovinski. From her use of color to her exploration of pattern, Carly's work plays with the idea of the decorative and utilitarian. Her work investigates patterns and organizing systems found in everyday life with reverence for the history and behaviors contained in objects and places. In this episode, we discuss living an authentic life and following our passions, from our work in the studio to DIY projects and restoring old homes. Carly received her BFA in painting from Boston University in 2003 and her work is represented by Morgan Lehman Gallery, NYC. Recent solo exhibitions include Currents 8: Carly Glovinski at the Colby Museum of Art, Waterville, Maine, How to Build a Fire at Morgan Lehman Gallery, NYC, Tread Lightly at iMOCA, Indianapolis, and Scout Land at Carroll and Sons, Boston, MA.

The Executive Producers of America's Forests are Bruce Ward and Kate Raisz. Bruce is the founder and President of Choose Outdoors. Kate has known Bruce for years! Go to www.americasforestswithchuckleavell.com In this episode of Talking Forests, Kate has made it her goal to help the people who do not always get out into the forests to have a way to connect with them through television and documenting them around the world. In the Oregon episode of America's Forests they filmed a great piece about cross-laminated timber, in Colorado they filmed about the ways forests benefit the city of Denver's drinking supply of water, and the episode premiering this Winter will give a great overview in South Carolina of the Sustainable Land Retention Program. She discussed Climate Change in Forests and we talked about the newest generation coming out with a big voice to help our forests. Part of what Kate does is talking to different people around the world to gain insights and a new perspective to put in a film or TV show. She loves making people feel comfortable so that they can tell their story in a meaningful way. Building a community is huge. How do we connect those humans in cities to connect them to the forests around them? Air, water, and recreation keep people alive.

So the big new taste treat on Twitter is a hard sell for me, but we're going to try it on the show today. (Remember when we tried avocado toast with white chocolate? Ugh.) The Utah Museum of Natural History is doing that whole "bring nature in" thing with a live bobcat found lounging by their front door. There's LDS Missionaries getting deported from Russia and the story of the how reading stories in her jammies helped an elementary school educator raise her school's literacy scores. Stick around! Today's going to be spectacular!

It was very embarrassing. They also talk about the old mining town of Ophir, Utah. Located in the mountains above Tooele, it's a really cool little spot where you can enjoy some cool Utah mining history.
Guest host Kristian Anderson of the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art talks with Steven Labrum from UMOCA’s Board of Trustees about the 2017 UMOCA Annual Gala, what it means to live downtown and their recommendations on where you should grab dinner tonight.
Utah Museum of Contemporary Art isn't the only one hosting family art Saturdays, The Utah Museum of Fine art has a very similar program that takes place on the third Saturday of each month. Explore the exhibits and learn from experienced artists and educators with your family and leave with knowledge and a project! Maybe art isn't your thing, how about sports!? The Salt Lake Bees Baseball is back! The season has begun and there are tons of special games you won't want to miss! Family night (big discounts), fireworks, kid run, and more!
A weekend filled with yoga, chocolate, cheese, and art sounds pretty impressive! That's only the half of it! The yoga... at the aquarium either in the "rainforest" or in the shark exhibit. Sounds like a powerful experience. The Chocolate and Cheese are combined into a festival full of workshops and shopping held at the Natural History Museum. Lastly, the family art is an art class led by an experienced instructor at the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art! Learn about a different medium every second Saturday of the month for an interactive art class with take home project!

Outdoor Retailer may be leaving, but we have suspicion another expo might be on the rise to replace it here in Utah. The Big Outdoors Expo this weekend has it all! Camping, hiking, fishing, mountain biking, just to name a few of the categories it covers. Plenty of activities for kids, as well as some great giveaways including an ATV, a gun safe, a trip to Disneyland for 4, and a white water rafting trip in Jackson Hole, Wyoming! Not your scene? Then head to the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art and get shot. This shooting simulator makes it feel like you've been shot (not the pain, but the mind). Many more exhibits that Ethan has ruined for us all are listed.
