Podcasts about world arts

Who is responsible for making a work of art? In each episode of this collaborative podcast series, one anthropologist, specialising in a particular cultural context, has a conversation with an artist of their choosing, exploring issues of authorship and responsibility in art. Ranging across geographical locations and creative practices, discussions address and unpack the conceptualisation of the artistic person, authorship as centred upon an individual or bounded group, and the development of responsibility for artworks during and after their making. Each episode brings a fresh perspective on where ideas come from, what agency an artist feels in the creation of their work, and how, and in which contexts, ownership and responsibility for the artwork are claimed. Ultimately, as a collection, the series encourages listeners to think about ‘the artist' and ‘the artwork' as dynamic processes in a relationship of authoring. Series 3, Episode 5 of Artery features Aline Motta with Alex Ungprateeb Flynn Alex Ungprateeb Flynn is Assistant Professor and Graduate Vice Chair at the Department of World Arts and Cultures/Dance, University of California, Los Angeles. Working with activists, curators, and artists in Brasil, Alex investigates the prefigurative potential of art in community contexts to theorize the production of knowledge, notions of utopia, and social and aesthetic dimensions of form. Framed by a collaborative methodological approach, Alex fundamentally inquires how human beings express themselves artistically, and in doing so, seek to transform the world. X/ Insta: alexungprateebf With her artistic practice, Aline Motta (b. 1974, Niterói, Brazil) seeks to point out and fill in the gaps in her own family history as a result of colonial erasure. Her videos, photographs, installations, and performances are based on speculative studies that mix archival research, field trips, and oral history reports that she uses to access, nourish, and reveal parts of the past that were previously thought to be lost. In 2023, she exhibited in the Sharjah Biennial 15 (UAE), at MoMA Museum of Modern Art and the 35th São Paulo Biennial.

UCLA Arts alumna and lecturer Davida Persaud joins the podcast to discuss her passion for community-based work, activism, and the arts; her experience in the Department of World Arts and Cultures/Dance Ph.D. program; and the origin and future of MuralColors, a company she co-founded that produces, preserves, and restores public artworks.

Recorded live inside UCLA's Royce Hall, the audio drama at the center of this episode takes place in southern California the immediate aftermath of the 2022 shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde TX. Tiffany struggles to balance the need to protect her young children with the urgency of finishing her doctoral dissertation, which is itself related to school shootings. After the performance, actors Natalie Camunas and Sola Bamis are joined by guests Marine Corps veteran Tess Banko and Army veteran Robert Ham to discuss the implications, for parents and veterans in particular, of school shootings becoming commonplace. "Tiffany" is based on the oral history of retired Air Force Captain Jessica Huerta. Jessica, who is also a PhD student in Sociology, joins the discussion as well. The conversation unearths provocative questions about cultures of hyper-masculinity, and the need to balance our freedoms and responsibilities regarding guns. Chapters: 00:00 - Introduction 01:56 - Audio drama: "Tiffany" 10:43 - Discussion with Tess, Robert, and Jessica 23:16 - Conclusion 25:23 - Thank you's and credits   Guest Bios: Jessica Huerta enlisted in the Air Force shortly after 9/11. Often she was the only woman in airfield-communications teams, among leaders in security forces, as the wing equal opportunity adviser, and as a public affairs officer. As a citizen-airman, a sociology doctoral candidate at UCLA, and a parent, she became aware of the discrimination fathers face when they seek deep emotional connections with their families and greater involvement in childcare. Jessica believes research to demonstrate the strategies fathers use to defy rigid gender rules could greatly improve the lives of men, their partners and their children across our military, veteran and civilian communities.   Tess Barragan Banko, MSW/MPA, a Marine Corps veteran, serves as the U.S.VETS West Los Angeles project director and The Veterans Collective community development director. A survivor of post-traumatic stress disorder and military sexual trauma, Banko deeply identifies with fellow veterans and families on their paths to recovery, wellness and empowerment, and is honored to serve the community on behalf of her military and veteran sisters, brothers and their families.    Robert Ham is a 4x Emmy winning director/writer, a decorated Army Combat Veteran and an alumni of the USC School of Cinematic Arts MFA program. During his time in the military he served a combat tour to Afghanistan in '09-10 and then would deploy to over a dozen areas in the Pacific. Robert received the Department of Defense Military Videographer of the Year award three times (the highest decoration for military story-telling), the most in Army history.

Dan Froot and special guests, Refujio "Cuco" Rodriguez and Bryonn Bain, explore how guns shaped the lives of two brother living in Miami's Liberty City neighborhood. The jumping-off point for the converstion is Dan Froot & Company's short audio drama "Rich & Dave," based on the brothers' oral history. Rich and Dave struggle with the emotional toll of gun violence in their community, managing family responsibilities while charting a path away from troubled pasts. The drama highlights their familial bond, the pressures of their environment, and the pervasive presence of guns, even when not visible. Following the audio play, Dan discusses the broader entanglements of gun violence, race, and the prison-industrial complex with guests Justin Alston, Refujio Rodriguez, and Bryonn Bain. They emphasize the importance of empathy, understanding systemic racism, the need for community resources to address the root causes of violence, and the case for prison abolition. Through personal stories and informed insights, the episode suggests that acknowledging each other's humanity could transform the gun debate. It is an appeal for dialogue and support over judgment and punishment.

Can we trace where Western Civilization went wrong to the 1400s when Filippo Brunelleschi, known for his brazen duomo designs in Florence, Italy, invented the linear perspective that dominated Art, Architecture, and city planning ever since? This almost-photographic perspective of the world around us translated to cities and their people being separated from nature, and the ecosystems that nourish us all. Some European painters in the early 20th Century, like Picasso and Matisse, challenged this linear perspective and were called Fauves or wild beasts. But do we need more wild beasts, rather than just bad-boy white dudes, to overcome these linear perspective machines and heal our relationship with the Earth? On today's show, Shana Nys Dambrot [http://sndx.net], art historian and culture writer from Los Angeles' vibrant art scene, guides us on a romp through these European art movements to trace how we got here and where we are headed. We delve into the question of how environmental and climate activism intertwine with artistic expression. Shana engages in a thought-provoking conversation about the role of art in shaping a better world, exploring the dreams and tangible enactments of new realities. Join us as we confront the big questions: Whose dream? Whose world? What does 'better' truly mean? This episode is not just an exploration of art, but a challenge to the status quo and an invitation to envision a future that includes everyone. Note: Jacques Derrida, French philosopher, referred to himself as a historian. He questioned assumptions of the Western philosophical tradition and also more broadly Western culture. Derrida called his challenge to the assumptions of Western culture "deconstruction.” On some occasions, Derrida referred to deconstruction as a radicalization of a certain spirit of Marxism. Shana applied the concept of deconstruction to the ideal of a "better world," which would then become a place that we never could have imagined or expected.

The first amendment has been around for 232 years. But it seems now, more than ever, first amendment freedoms are under attack. And indeed experts say attacks on free speech are rising across the U.S. Bans on books and drag performances are growing increasingly common nationwide. Spotify faced growing controversy over episodes of Joe Rogan's podcast containing racial slurs and COVID-19 misinformation. A fierce free speech debate last year gained national attention at Hamline University when a professor's contract was not renewed after she showed artwork of the prophet Muhammad in her World Art class, in spite of issuing trigger warnings. Today the first of four regional symposiums kicks off in St. Paul, with some of the proceedings at Hamline University, to try and better understand Free Speech and First Amendment issues. Related Hamline student, former instructor at center of debate over religion, academic freedom speak out “Free Speech at the Crossroads: A Minnesota Dialogue” is put on by the Free Speech Project at Georgetown University, in collaboration with the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. The director of the Free Speech Project and former co-host of “All Things Considered” on NPR, Sandy Ungar, and Jane Kirtley, a professor of media ethics and law at the Hubbard School of Journalism at the University of Minnesota and panelist at the conference joined MPR News Host Cathy Wurzer.

Diamond Hill is a birthworker in Northern NJ. She is the parent of 4 daughters. Jaida 14, Naiyma 12, Amina 6 and Nairobi 3. We are a family who believes in raising free black children through gentle parenting, natural parenting and unschooling. Cash.me/carryonnewark | Venmo: @authenticallyDiamond | Zelle: aasiya331@gmail.com Nina Monei currently resides in Seattle where they were born-and-raised; is single mom of one, poor, Black, queer and angry as hell. A former early learning teacher and current children's rights activist/advocate; writer/blogger. Nina loves sushi, rap, R&B, Rihanna, reminding people that Black folks are rightfully angry, and that whites should pay what they owe. Melody Gross: There have been two moments in my life that have changed me. Becoming a single parent and experiencing domestic violence. Both of which I never expected. Life is funny that way. I find the humor in parenting a child who has the personality of a natural comedian. I find purpose in removing the stigma of intimate partner violence. I find passion in both. I'm Harlem born and Charlotte based. I'm loud and outspoken and opinionated (with facts and feelings mixed). I'm always on a path of freedom and what that looks like for me. I'm the mom to the awesome KGB (he's finally embraced that nickname) and he's the reason I don't take any shit and work to dismantle white supremacy. I'm spiritual but not religious. I love to laugh and sometimes cry. I curse a lot.
