fWotD Episode 2797: Minneapolis Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 31 December 2024 is Minneapolis.Minneapolis is a city in Hennepin County, Minnesota, United States, and its county seat. With a population of 429,954, it is the state's most populous city as of the 2020 census. Located in the state's center near the eastern border, it occupies both banks of the Upper Mississippi River and adjoins Saint Paul, the state capital of Minnesota. Minneapolis, Saint Paul, and the surrounding area are collectively known as the Twin Cities, a metropolitan area with 3.69 million residents. Minneapolis is built on an artesian aquifer on flat terrain and is known for cold, snowy winters and hot, humid summers. Nicknamed the "City of Lakes", Minneapolis is abundant in water, with thirteen lakes, wetlands, the Mississippi River, creeks, and waterfalls. The city's public park system is connected by the Grand Rounds National Scenic Byway.Dakota people originally inhabited the site of today's Minneapolis. European colonization and settlement began north of Fort Snelling along Saint Anthony Falls—the only natural waterfall on the Mississippi River. Location near the fort and the falls' power—with its potential for industrial activity—fostered the city's early growth. For a time in the 19th century, Minneapolis was the lumber and flour milling capital of the world, and as home to the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, it has preserved its financial clout into the 21st century. A Minneapolis Depression-era labor strike brought about federal worker protections. Work in Minneapolis contributed to the computing industry, and the city is the birthplace of General Mills, the Pillsbury brand, Target Corporation, and Thermo King mobile refrigeration.The city's major arts institutions include the Minneapolis Institute of Art, the Walker Art Center, and the Guthrie Theater. Four professional sports teams play downtown. Prince is survived by his favorite venue, the First Avenue nightclub. Minneapolis is home to the University of Minnesota's main campus. The city's public transport is provided by Metro Transit, and the international airport, serving the Twin Cities region, is located towards the south on the city limits.Residents adhere to more than fifty religions. Despite its well-regarded quality of life, Minneapolis has stark disparities among its residents—arguably the most critical issue confronting the city in the 21st century. Governed by a mayor-council system, Minneapolis has a political landscape dominated by the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party (DFL), with Jacob Frey serving as mayor since 2018.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:31 UTC on Tuesday, 31 December 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Minneapolis on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Joanna.

Episode No. 677 features artist Andrea Carlson. As mentioned at the beginning of this week's program: Help Asheville and my friends and neighbors across the southern Appalachians! These are all local organizations helping people in western North Carolina: Southern Smoke Foundation; Asheville Food & Beverage United (also here); and Beloved Asheville. The Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago is presenting "Andrea Carlson: Shimmer on Horizons," the latest exhibition in its "Chicago Works" series. Across painting, video, sculpture, and two billboards (along Interstate 94 between Illinois and Wisconsin), "Shimmer on Horizons" presents Carlson's investigation of how landscapes are constructed both politically and culturally. The exhibition was curated by Iris Colburn and is on view through February 2, 2025. Carlson's work may also be seen in "Andrea Carlson: Future Cache" at the University of Michigan Museum of Art, which features a 40-foot-tall memorial wall that towers over visitors, commemorating the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians who were violently burned from their land in Northern Michigan on October 15, 1900. Curated by Jennifer Friess, the presentation is on view through June 2025. Carlson is also included within "Scientia Sexualis" at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles through March 2, 2025. The exhibition, realized as part of the Getty's "PST ART: Art & Science Collide" program, centers research-driven interventions into raced and gendered assumptions that structure scientific disciplines governing our sense of the sexual body. It was curated by Jennifer Doyle and Jeanne Vaccaro. Carlson (Grand Portage Ojibwe/European descent) typically addresses land and its history by foregrounding decolonization narratives. Museums that have featured solo exhibitions of her work include the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian, New York, and the Minneapolis Institute of Art. Her work is in the collection of museums such as the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, and the Denver Art Museum. She is also the co-founder of the Center for Native Futures in Chicago. Chicagoans: on Saturday Carlson and poet Heid E. Erdrich will be in conversation at the MCA at 2:30 pm. A program at the Center for Native Futures precedes the event. Instagram: Andrea Carlson, Tyler Green.

In the early 1960s, Poet & multimedia artist Gerd Stern & friends Michael Callahan & Steve Durkee founded USCO (an acronym for Us Company or the Company of Us). It became a burgeoning cooperative group of artists, poets, filmmakers, engineers, & composers who worked out of an old church in Garnerville, New York, north of NYC. It is here that they emerged as probably the first producers of multimedia happenings, of immersive & oozing light shows, ephemeral performances that became all the rage during the height of hippie-LSD times. Part hippie, part beatnik, part Black Mountain, part Eastern mysticism, part fluxus, part political leftist, & part new music, they adhered to collective & inclusive artistic practices & preferred to work under the USCO name rather than as individual artists. USCO utilized unique new uses for lighting, colors, projections, film, audio, & live performances to create multimedia & environmental art that included installations with slide projections, closed-circuit television, oscilloscopes, strobe lights, amplifiers, early IBM computers, live performances. This culminate most famously in the Expanded Cinema Festival & Timothy Leary's Psychedelic Theater & the first multimedia disco called Murray the K's World that incorporated immersive technology & ideas, allowing audiences – many of whom may have been tripping – to feel as if they were entering a new, immersive,  sensory realm. They've performed or exhibited at many great museums, universities & venues including the van Abbe Museum in Eindhoven, Walker Art Center, Whitney Museum, Tate Liverpool, Pompidou Center, MIT, & RISDI. The USCO Church was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016. I first met Gerd in the 20th Century. Born in Germany in 1928, he emigrated with his parents to the US as a refugee in 1936.  Gerd & started crossing paths in New York City in the 1960s.  We  discovered common ground at a Phill Niblock loft concert in the 1990s. He asked me to write music & sound design for his play, “Lost Cabaret” or “Katandogastrophic,” produced for the 2003 New York Fringe Festival. I asked Gerd to create  poetry for a 3D sound work Sky High. It is included in this iMMERSE! podcast.

Episode No. 647 is a holiday weekend clips episode featuring artist Kahlil Robert Irving. The Kemper Art Museum at Washington University in Saint Louis is presenting "Kahlil Robert Irving: Archaeology of the Present" through July 29. "Archaeology of the Present" is a presentation of new Irving sculptures, video, and found objects. Irving has situated his sculptures and other items within a large plywood platform, resembling a stage. Viewers can move onto the structure to encounter both artworks and manufactured objects alike. The episode was taped in 2023 when Irving was included in “I'll Be Your Mirror: Art and the Digital Screen” at The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. The exhibition was an examination of the screen's vast impact on art from 1969 to the present. It was curated by Alison Hearst. Concurrently, the exhibition now at the Kemper had just opened at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. It was curated by William Hernández Luege. At the Kemper, the show was curated by Meredith Malone. Irving's assemblages of images and replicas of every day objects challenge constructions of Western identity and culture. His ceramic sculptures incorporate neglected objects that represent a historical moment, as do his room-sized, image-driven installations. Irving has had solo exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Contemporary Art Museum Saint Louis; he's been featured in group exhibitions at the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh, MASS MoCA in North Adams, Mass., the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, and more.

Episode No. 641 is a President's Day weekend clips show featuring artist Stanley Whitney. The Buffalo AKG Art Museum (née the Albright-Knox Art Gallery) is presenting "Stanley Whitney: How High the Moon," a retrospective of Whitney's fifty-year career. The exhibition features the square-format, semi-gridded abstract canvases Whitney has been making since 2002, as well as works preceding them as far back as the 1970s. The exhibition was curated by Cathleen Chaffee and will be on view through May 26. From Buffalo, the exhibition will travel to the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, and the Institute of Contemporary Art / Boston. A catalogue was published by DelMonico Books and the museum. Amazon and Bookshop offer it for $70-75. This program was taped on the occasion of an exhibition of Whitney's then-recent work at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth in 2017. For images, see Episode No. 272.

Stanley Whitney talks to Ben Luke about his influences—from writers to musicians and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped his life and work. Whitney, ​​born in Philadelphia in 1946, makes abstract paintings that feature interlocking rectangles, squares and bands of paint whose intense colours hum with musical resonance and rhythm. Rigorously structured yet full of improvisation and unexpected incident, his paintings are both arresting and slow-burning: they grab you with their bold hues and hold you with their complex harmonies and dissonances, their sense of constant movement. He is particularly known for his square-format paintings of the past two decades but his career has been a lifelong search for a distinctive form of painting—one that, as he has said, is defiantly abstract yet contains “the complexity of the world”. He reflects on his encounters with an early mentor, Philip Guston; being painted by Barkley Hendricks, a fellow student at Yale; and his close friendship with David Hammons.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists. And we're back with Part 2 of my three-part conversation with Wisconsin-based artist, TL Solien. Today we conclude the exploration of his early (or phase 1) art practice, including a fun description of the origins of his pictographic works. We talk about his early career experiences in visiting and exhibiting in New York City and living for a time in Paris. We discuss family, and home-life, agreements, and finances, the difficulties following the art market crash, and TL's  experience entering the culture of academia. Then we come back around to the concept or self-respect, the second phase of TL's studio practice, collage, Moby Dick, building paintings towards vibration , space, implied linearity and more. As I mentioned last week, I am extremely proud of this interview, and very thankful to my guest for his patience and his willingness to share so much of life with me and the ARTMATTERS listeners. About:T.L Solien, born in Fargo North Dakota in 1949, received a BA degree in Art from Moorhead State University, Moorhead MN in 1973, and an MFA in Painting and Sculpture from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 1977.TL Solien has been  invited to  participate in numerous exhibitions  of National and International magnitude including, the 1983 Whitney Biennial, the 39th  Biennial of American Painting at the Corcoran Museum, Washington, D.C.; Avant-Grade in the 80”s, at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; The American Artist as Printmaker,   Brooklyn Museum NY; Images and Impressions, Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, MN; and Contemporary Drawings, High Museum of Art, Atlanta, GA.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The podcast for artists. I'm particularly excited about today's episode with the artist TL Solien. Prepare yourself for an epic conversation, recorded over two separate studio visits, and subsequently over four hours of material. In light of this, I've edited this conversation down into three episodes, which will come out weekly until complete, unlike the usual bi-weekly format of the show. ● In episode 1, we get into TL's painting process and his background and education.● In episode 2, we talk about his family, his explosive early career success, and the challenges that followed the art market crash, when he was forced to seek out adjunct teaching opportunities wherever he could, move frequently, and often on his own.● And in episode 3 where i pepper him with whatever i else i forgot, including his current painting ideology and focus. Also collaging and Moby Dick. I am extremely proud of this interview, and very thankful to my guest for his patience and his willingness to share so much of life with me and the ARTMATTERS listeners. About:T.L Solien, born in Fargo North Dakota in 1949, received a BA degree in Art from Moorhead State University, Moorhead MN in 1973, and an MFA in Painting and Sculpture from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 1977.Solien has been  invited to  participate in numerous exhibitions  of National and International magnitude including, the 1983 Whitney Biennial, the 39th  Biennial of American Painting at the Corcoran Museum, Washington, D.C.; Avant-Grade in the 80”s, at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; The American Artist as Printmaker,   Brooklyn Museum NY; Images and Impressions, Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, MN; and Contemporary Drawings, High Museum of Art, Atlanta, GA.

Ep.170 MAREN HASSINGER (b. 1947) has built an interdisciplinary practice that articulates the relationship between nature and humanity. Carefully choosing materials for their innate characteristics, Hassinger has explored the subject of movement, family, love, nature, environment, consumerism, identity, and race. The artist uses her materials to mimic nature, whether bundling it to resemble a monolithic sheaf of wheat or planting it in cement to create an industrial garden. Within the past five years, the artist has executed commissions for Dia Bridgehampton, Socrates Sculpture Park, the Hirshhorn Museum, and the Aspen Art Museum. Work is currently installed on the terrace of the Art Institute of Chicago, along the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia, at Longhouse Reserve in East Hampton, and in Ugo Rondinone's Sculpture Milwaukee. Hassinger will be included in the upcoming exhibition Groundswell: Women of Land Art at the Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas and will be honored with an upcoming two-person survey alongside Senga Nengudi at IVAM, Valencia as well as an exhibition focused on their work in performance at the Cooley Gallery, Reed College, Portland, OR. She is the recipient of the Women's Caucus for the Arts Lifetime Achievement Award. Her work can be found at the Art Institute of Chicago; the Hirshhorn Museum; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Modern Art, NYC; the San Francisco Museum of Art; the Walker Art Center, and the Whitney Museum, among others.  Photo credit ~ Museum Associates/LACMA  Susan Inglett Gallery https://www.inglettgallery.com/artists/255-maren-hassinger/overview/Smithsonian | Hirshhorn Museum  https://hirshhorn.si.edu/explore/maren-hassinger-hirshhorn-artist-diaries/ Getty https://www.getty.edu/news/getty-acquires-maren-hassinger-archive/ Dia Art https://www.diaart.org/exhibition/exhibitions-projects/maren-hassinger-exhibition-301 LongHouse Reserve https://longhouse.org/products/artist-maren-hassinger MICA https://www.mica.edu/graduate-programs/rinehart-school-of-sculpture-mfa/maren-hassinger/ Inquirer https://www.inquirer.com/arts/schuylkill-river-public-art-steel-bodies-philadelphia-20230623.html Brooklyn Rail https://brooklynrail.org/events/2023/06/02/maren-hassinger-process/ Culture Type https://www.culturetype.com/2023/09/05/latest-news-in-black-art-sonia-boyce-now-represented-by-hauser-wirth-getty-acquires-maren-hassinger-archive-tomashi-jackson-wins-rappaport-prize-more/ The Grio https://thegrio.com/2023/09/08/getty-acquires-archive-of-renowned-artist-maren-hassinger/ Sculpture Milwaukee  https://www.sculpturemilwaukee.com/nature-doesnt-know-about-us/maren-hassinger MCAD https://www.mcad.edu/events/visiting-artist-lecture-maren-hassinger Art Pil https://artpil.com/announcements/maren-hassinger-process/ MICA https://www.mica.edu/graduate-programs/rinehart-school-of-sculpture-mfa/maren-hassinger/ Wikipedia   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maren_Hassinger MoMA https://www.moma.org/artists/41280 Hammer https://hammer.ucla.edu/now-dig-this/artists/maren-hassinger Socrates Sculpture Park  https://socratessculpturepark.org/artist/maren-hassinger/ Artic https://www.artic.edu/exhibitions/10139/maren-hassinger-this-is-how-we-grow Association For Public Art https://www.associationforpublicart.org/apa-now/news/the-association-for-public-art-brings-maren-hassingers-steel-bodies-to-philadelphia/ The Great Northern Festival https://thegreatnorthernfestival.com/2023/maren-hassinger-love-for-minneapolis The Art Newspaper https://www.theartnewspaper.com/2023/08/30/maren-hassinger-archive-acquired-getty-research-institute Beverly Press https://beverlypress.com/2023/09/hassinger-works-added-to-getty-archive/

Ep. 168 features Chase Hall's (b. 1993, St. Paul, Minnesota). His paintings and sculptures respond to generational celebrations and traumas encoded throughout American history. Responding to a variety of social and visual systems, each of which intersects with complex trajectories of race, hybridity, economics, and personal agency, Hall generates images whose materiality is as crucial to their compositional makeup as their indelible approach to representation. A central body of paintings, made with drip-brew techniques derived from coffee beans and acrylic pigments on cotton supports, is notable for both its conceptual scope and its intimacy. The use of brewed coffee carries powerful symbolic weight since it evokes centuries-old geopolitical systems associated with the commodification of a plant native to Africa, but in Hall's hands, it also becomes a means of achieving subtle visual textures, a range of brown skin tones, and a mark-making vocabulary precipitated on the closeness of touch. Above all, however, it is his improvisational willingness to immerse himself in the indefinable personal hieroglyphics of each picture that gives his work its resonance and impact. Chase Hall was the subject of a solo exhibition at the SCAD Museum of Art, Savannah, Georgia in 2023. In 2022, Hall was commissioned by the Metropolitan Opera to produce a large-scale artwork, the monumental diptych Medea Act I & II, for its opera house in New York, on view through June 2023. Hall has been included in group exhibitions including Together in Time: Selections from the Hammer Contemporary Collection, Hammer Museum (2023), Los Angeles; Black American Portraits, Los Angeles County Museum of Art (2021); Young, Gifted and Black: The Lumpkin-Boccuzzi Family Collection of Contemporary Art, University of Illinois Chicago (2021); and This Is America | Art USA Today, Kunsthal KAdE, Amersfoort, the Netherlands. Hall has been an artist-in-residence at The Mountain School of Arts, Los Angeles; Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA), North Adams, Massachusetts; and Skowhegan School for Painting and Sculpture, Maine. Hall's work is in the permanent collections of institutions including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Dallas Museum of Art; Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami; Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris; Baltimore Museum of Art; Brooklyn Museum, New York; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; High Museum of Art, Atlanta; Montreal Museum of Fine Arts; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; The Studio Museum in Harlem, New York; and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York.

While the utopia of Multiculturalism tempts with ideas as thorough as us "all getting along," it quickly breaks down in the real world when faced with conflicting worldviews and their consequences. While the subject has been addressed in the past, it is worth revisiting, as we once again witness the consequences of abandoning the very foundation necessary to produce that often-desired-but-never-realized ideal of a world in harmony despite our differences. When the Walker Art Center hosted a family-friendly demon summoning, it revealed the worldviews of those responsible. However, since we do not live in a vacuum, we may use this event as key example for considering how we think about society, culture, metaphysics, and its consequences. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

In this episode I had the honor to sit down with artist Jeffrey Gibson joined by curator and co-editor of An Indigenous Present, Jenelle Porter. We were given space at SITE Santa Fe in Director Louis Grachos office to have a long and generative conversation while we celebrated the book's launch over Indian Market weekend. We talk about Jeff's practice and his journey to this moment and the Artist shares the vulnerable, complicated, difficult and joyous path of choosing to be an Artist, offering reflection from what he has learned along the way, understanding how the practice and studio has evolved in the 20 some years of being a working Artist. We then dive in with both Jeff and Jenelle to speak on Jeff's thought process behind An Indigenous Present, learning about the years of care and intention behind the project, which is, as Jeff reflects, an “Artist book about Artists”. We round out our 2 plus hour chat with the excitement and work that has come with Jeffrey being named the artist to represent the U.S. at the 60th Venice Biennale. As we end our chat, both Jeff and Jenelle share important and practical insight on how to navigate the art worlds and art markets and Jeffrey reminds us all that “Artists do have the power to set precedence in institutions”. Featured song: SMOKE RINGS SHIMMERS ENDLESS BLUR by Laura Ortman, 2023 Broken Boxes introduction song by India Sky More about the publication An Indigenous Present: https://www.artbook.com/9781636811024.html More about the Artist Jeffrey Gibson Jeffrey Gibson's work fuses his Choctaw-Cherokee heritage and experience of living in Europe, Asia and the USA with references that span club culture, queer theory, fashion, politics, literature and art history. The artist's multi-faceted practice incorporates painting, performance, sculpture, textiles and video, characterised by vibrant colour and pattern. Gibson was born in 1972, Colorado, USA and he currently lives and works in Hudson Valley, New York. The artist combines intricate indigenous artisanal handcraft – such as beadwork, leatherwork and quilting – with narratives of contemporary resistance in protest slogans and song lyrics. This “blend of confrontation and pageantry” is reinforced by what Felicia Feaster describes as a “sense of movement and performance as if these objects ... are costumes waiting for a dancer to inhabit them.” The artist harnesses the power of such materials and techniques to activate overlooked narratives, while embracing the presence of historically marginalised identities. Gibson explains: “I am drawn to these materials because they acknowledge the global world. Historically, beads often came from Italy, the Czech Republic or Poland, and contemporary beads can also come from India, China and Japan. Jingles originated as the lids of tobacco and snuff tins, turned and used to adorn dresses, but now they are commercially made in places such as Taiwan. Metal studs also have trade references and originally may have come from the Spanish, but also have modern references to punk and DIY culture. It's a continual mash-up.” Acknowledging music as a key element in his experience of life as an artist, pop music became one of the primary points of reference in Gibson's practice: musicians became his elders and lyrics became his mantras. Recent paintings synthesise geometric patterns inspired by indigenous American artefacts with the lyrics and psychedelic palette of disco music. Solo exhibitions include ‘THE SPIRITS ARE LAUGHING', Aspen Art Museum, Colorado (2022); ‘This Burning World', Institute of Contemporary Art, San Francisco, California (2022); ‘The Body Electric', SITE Santa Fe, New Mexico (2022) and Frist Art Museum, Nashville (2023); ‘INFINITE INDIGENOUS QUEER LOVE', deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, Lincoln, Massachusetts (2021); ‘To Feel Myself Beloved on the Earth', Benenson Center, Art Omi, Ghent, New York (2021); ‘When Fire is Applied to a Stone It Cracks', Brooklyn Art Museum, Brooklyn, New York (2020); ‘The Anthropophagic Effect', New Museum, New York City, New York (2019); ‘Like a Hammer', Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, Madison, Wisconsin (2019); Seattle Art Museum, Seattle, Washington (2019); Mississippi Museum of Art, Jackson, Mississippi (2019); Denver Art Museum, Denver, Colorado (2018); ‘This Is the Day', Blanton Museum of Art, Austin, Texas (2019); Ruth and Elmer Wellin Museum of Art, Clinton, New York (2018) and ‘Love Song', Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, Massachusetts (2013).

An Indigenous Present: Conversation with Jeffrey Gibson and Jenelle Porter

Could we be headed back to COVID restrictions? With a slight uptick in infections the answer could be yes and we discuss how the broken trust between the "experts" and the people could blow this up into a huge problem.  Our conversation then takes a sharp turn to political matters as we scrutinize the recent Republican debate and the media whirlwind around Trump's mugshot.  But politics isn't the only game in town as we shift our focus to the arts scene? Yes! The Walker Art Center in Minnesota inexplicably  stepped in it with their demon-themed art event making one thing crystal clear- they're a spiritual battle for the nation's soul. If those who believe in God do not stand up and fight against the push of Satanism in our society we will have only ourselves to blame. We also address the worrying doctor shortage in New Mexico, dissecting the implications of the state's policies and discussing potential solutions. The Governor has made it nearly impossible to be a doctor in New Mexico. The result is a huge doctor shortage and likely devastating consequence for people who get sick here. The media is unwilling to place blame where it clearly belongs, at the feet of politicians who have favored lawyers over doctors. We ask our politicians like Michelle Lujan Grisham treat doctors like the movie industry in New Mexico. Give doctors every incentive possible to relocate here. Just like she has gone with the movie industry. If we don't get more doctors into the state to provide care for people lives will be lost. It's that simple.Finally, we wrap up with the worst national anthem you've ever heard. Don't miss it!Website: https://www.nodoubtaboutitpodcast.com/Twitter: @nodoubtpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/NoDoubtAboutItPod/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markronchettinm/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D

The Walker Art Center in Minnesota recently held an event called ‘Lilit the Empathetic Demon'. Put on by she/they artist Tamar Ettun, who also held a 'How to Trap a Demon' presentation, the event welcomed families to playfully summon the ‘empathic demon' and to ‘create a vessel to trap the demon that knows them best'. While families are busy making that vessel, Lilit ‘will come from the dark side of the moon to lead you in locating your feelings using ancient Babylonian techniques'. Notice there is nothing about processing those emotions, and that's because Lilit is Lilith, the demon of abortion, the destroyer of beauty and women, and the tempter of men. She is also the destroyer of families. It is thus on par that a demon of non-empathy who destroys families would seriously be summoned in the name of empathy, playfulness, and families. An article on the Walker website may explain why, as it details how ‘Lilit came to [Ettun]' after she ‘just found out she was pregnant'. People like Tamar are victims but they are also the person from Bird Box who gets into your safe place and rips the paper off the windows, forcing you to stair into the darkness of fear and death. In other words, they are dangerous perverters of the natural world. Since Lilit, or Lilith, wears the rainbow, and does what she does in its name, it should be very clear what we are dealing with socially and culturally - a death cult of human sacrifice and an inversion of creation. These ideologically and energetically possessed people pretend to be frail, emaciated, and weak like the Devil, until you let your guard down and they rip jump to rip your throat open like Dracula. Lilith also appeared with a 666 advertisement welcoming New York City to hell as wildfire smoke engulfed the city a few months ago. A book published in 2019 was likewise encouraging kids to summon demons in opposition to taking responsibility or learning. Such things destroy innocent, which is the work of Lilith. The book was billed as a parody, and just silly instead of scary - and that's how it always is justified, by inversion. A movie also comes out in September called ‘It Lives Inside', about the malignant and vile demon Pishacha, who leads people astray, traps them, and eats them.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5328407/advertisement

We meet painter KATY MORAN to discuss More Me, the artist's first presentation in Australia to date, showcasing her signature style of painting that defies and dispels traditional genres of landscape, portraiture or still life, instead, existing as free, gestural explorations of colour and line. Moran's practice hovers in a productive space between figuration and abstraction. She paints over canvases found in flea markets and charity shops, blurring the found images beneath her layers of paint, evoking a deliberate sense of nostalgia and longing, as if unravelling a distant memory.Katy Moran's paintings reflect a responsive working process: shifting or rotating the canvas while painting, reworking textures, and reconsidering the shapes and figures that emerge. With this approach to painting along with the inclusion of collage, often partially obscured, her work conveys a deliberate tension between materiality and subject. Moran creates a dynamic push and pull between the addition and the removal of paint; some works exhibit thick application of paint, while in others the painterly gesture is removed with rags dipped in varnish or even by sanding. Via the oscillation between representation and abstraction, composition and narrative, texture and space, Moran engages thought and sense simultaneously.Follow @KatyMoran123 on Instagram and visit her gallery Modern Art: https://modernart.net/artists/katy-moranKaty Moran's new exhibition More Me is now open and runs until 1st April at Station, Melbourne, Australia.Visit https://stationgallery.comKaty Moran lives and works in Hertfordshire. She was born in Manchester in 1975 and completed an MA Fine Art in painting at the Royal College of Art, London in 2005. Moran's work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at Parasol Unit for Contemporary Art, London (2015); the Douglas Hyde Gallery, Dublin (2013); Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus (2010); Tate St. Ives (2009); and Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art, UK (2008). Her work has been featured in group exhibitions at Tate St. Ives (2018); Aspen Art Museum (2015); Walker Art Center, Minneapolis (2013); SFMOMA (2012); and Tate Britain, London (2008).

Imagine walking down a city street. You see pavement, bricks, power lines, pipes, windows, lights, maybe some graffiti, a tree or two. Artist Kahlil Robert Irving thinks that a city street landscape can tell a community's story. The Walker Art Center in Minneapolis recently opened an exhibition by Kahlil called Archeology of the Present. Kahlil joined MPR News host Cathy Wurzer to talk about his latest exhibit. Use the audio player above to listen to the full conversation.  Subscribe to the Minnesota Now podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.    We attempt to make transcripts for Minnesota Now available the next business day after a broadcast. When ready they will appear here. 

Episode No. 591 features artists Kahlil Robert Irving and Rogelio Báez Vega. Kahlil Robert Irving is included in "I'll Be Your Mirror: Art and the Digital Screen" at The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. Across more than 25,000 square feet, the exhibition examines the screen's vast impact on art from 1969 to the present. It was curated by Alison Hearst and remains on view through April 30. Irving will deliver a lecture at MAMFW on March 7 at 6 pm. Walker Art Center in Minneapolis has just opened "Kahlil Robert Irving: Archaeology of the Present", a presentation of new Irving sculptures, video, and found objects. Irving has situated his sculptures and other items within a large plywood platform, resembling a stage. Viewers can move onto the structure to encounter both artworks and manufactured objects alike. The show, which was curated by William Hernández Luege, will be on view through January 21, 2024. Irving's assemblages of images and replicas of every day objects challenge constructions of Western identity and culture. His ceramic sculptures incorporate neglected objects that represent a historical moment, as do his room-sized, image-driven installations. Irving has had solo exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Contemporary Art Museum Saint Louis; he's been featured in group exhibitions at the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh, MASS MoCA in North Adams, Mass., the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, and more. Rogelio Báez Vega is included in "no existe un mundo poshuracán: Puerto Rican Art in the Wake of Hurricane Maria" at the Whitney. The exhibition, organized to coincide with the fifth anniversary of Maria, explores how artists have responded to the years since that event. It includes 15 artists from Puerto Rico and the diaspora. It was curated by Marcela Guerrero with Angelica Arbelaez, and will be on view through April 23. Báez Vega's paintings often portray modernist buildings dating from Puerto Rico's post-war boom. While his pictures sometimes show the island's rich vegetation overtaking physical structures, they imply both a dystopian future and nature's promise.
