| #25 - Wolfgang Laib | 11 mai 2023 | 00:51:48 | |
Wolfgang Laib. German Artist. Medical Student, but then rebelled and went into the arts. Spiritual. Maybe wears Birkenstocks. Collects insane amount of pollen. Melts Beeswax by the sun. But do NOT invite him to be part of a Nature Show. He's a sweet, humble, thoughtful man who makes quietly beautiful work. You can find images from this episode on our instagram HERE Middlebrow is hosted by Olive Moya and Lindsey Schulz-Peaslee. Please Enjoy, Wolfgang Laib! | |||
| #24 - Keith Haring | 09 août 2022 | 02:14:01 | |
Keith Haring. Muralist and Painter. (You can also find his work on literally any product - usually at Urban Outfitters - which means it's probably illegal). He loves to meet people. He loves kids (but not in a creepy way!). He vibed with Dada. Crack is wack! He was buddies with everyone, including Basquiat, Warhol, and Madonna. He was a voice for children, the gay community, and political causes he supported. And if you're ever feeling unsure about doing something, remember - KEITH WOULD DO IT! So settle in, it's a long one, and enjoy!

| #23 - Chris Burden (with Unibrow Curator Becky) | 30 déc. 2021 | 01:25:20 | |
Good Times with Chris Burden. Known for his Performances, Installations and Sculptures. He crouches in lockers. Asks friends to shoot him and nail his hands to VW Bugs. Possibly throws bricks at things he doesn't like. Loves shooting guns and making people nervous. LA's iconic light installation at LACMA. He's truly amazing and makes everyone feel like their work isn't good enough. Time to get "inspired"!
