Nancy Baker Cahill

Friday, March 24, 2023 • Duration 01:08:17

Nancy Baker Cahill is an award-winning interdisciplinary artist whose hybrid practice focuses on systemic power, consciousness, and the human body. As a new media artist, Cahill creates immersive and interactive experiences, video installations, and conceptual blockchain projects rooted in the practice of drawing. Her monumental augmented reality artworks extend and subvert the lineage of land art, often confronting the climate crisis, social issues, and civics. Nancy’s work calls for a more equitable future for all, as realized early on in her career with her collaborative art series “Exit Wounds” in conjunction with the non profit Homeboy Industries led by Father Greg Boyle. https://homeboyindustries.org/

Cahill is Founder and Artistic Director of 4th Wall, a free AR public art platform exploring site interventions, resistance, and inclusive creative expression. Her geolocated AR installations have been exhibited globally and have earned her profiles in the New York Times, Frieze Magazine, and The Art Newspaper, and she was also included in ARTnews’ list of 2021 'Deciders'.

Cahill's work has been exhibited internationally at museums and galleries, and her solo exhibition ‘Slipstream: Table of Contents’ was recently acquired by LACMA. In 2021, she was awarded the Williams College Bicentennial Medal of Honor and received the City of Los Angeles’ Master Artist Fellowship. She is a 2022 LACMA Art and Tech Grant recipient and this year, she’ll have her first solo mid-career retrospective at the Georgia Museum of Art.

Kiki Smith

Season 3 · Episode 3

Friday, December 9, 2022 • Duration 50:17

KIKI SMITH is one of the most influential visual artists in the contemporary world. Since the 1980s, Smith has created a prolific and provocative body of work that explores embodiment and the natural world. Utilizing a broad variety of materials and mediums – including sculpture, printmaking, photography, drawing and textiles – Smith’s unique style draws on mythology, folklore, fairytales and religious iconography, while also exploring the human form in all of its frailty and mystery.

We had the privilege of speaking with Kiki Smith on the eve of the unveiling of her rare and momentous public work – a monumental mosaic installation inside the new Grand Central Madison train station in New York City, commissioned by the MTA . This work includes five individual large scale mosaics depicting several Long Island landscape scenes including River Light, inspired by the way the sunlight hits the East River; The Water’s Way rendered in stunning shades of indigo; The Presence, which shows a deer among striking gold reeds; The Spring featuring fowl surrounded by forest during springtime growth; and The Sound which showcases Long Island’s waterway in a magnificent 28-foot wide mural.

Smith has been the subject of numerous solo exhibitions worldwide including over 25 museum exhibitions. Her work has been featured at five Venice Biennales and in 2017 was awarded the title of Honorary Royal Academician by the Royal Academy of Arts in London. In 2006, Smith was recognized by TIME Magazine as one of the “TIME 100: The People Who Shape Our World.” Her numerous awards include the Skowhegan Medal for Sculpture (2000), the Nelson A. Rockefeller Award (2010), the U.S. Department of State Medal of Arts (2013), and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the @intsculpturectr (2016). Kiki is also an adjunct professor at NYU and Columbia University.

We join the artist as she walks through the Lower East Side of Manhattan on a late afternoon.

Laura Albert (aka JT LeRoy)

Season 2 · Episode 2

Saturday, February 26, 2022 • Duration 01:33:29

In the late 90’s, JT LeRoy – a male teen sex worker turned-novelist – became an overnight literary sensation. Publishing three bestselling books, LeRoy’s electrifying work revealed a subversive American culture that had never before been explored. Immediately, LeRoy was celebrated by Hollywood and the Literati. The only problem was... JT didn't actually exist. In 2005, a 39 year old woman by the name of Laura Albert was outed as being the real author. Albert had employed her then sister-in-law Savannah Knoop to don a wig, fedora and dark sunglasses and portray the elusive author who was rising to fame. Ever since New York Magazine declared it “the greatest literary hoax of the millennium”, Albert has been misunderstood by many. As she completes her soon to be released memoir, we sat down with the author to discuss how trauma and survival informed her early work, and also how our evolving cultural understanding of gender identity has shifted the interpretation of JT LeRoy's legacy.

A note to our listeners: This episode contains mature language and sensitive subject matter including child sexual abuse, negative body image, and eating disorders. Discretion advised.

Joep Beving

Season 2 · Episode 1

Thursday, January 13, 2022 • Duration 01:03:04

Joep Beving is a Dutch composer and 21st-century music phenomenon, known worldwide for his gorgeous and haunting compositions which he often refers to as "simple music for complex emotions.” Joep has reenergized the world of modern classical music and proven that it’s never too late to embrace one’s creative passion. His first album "Solipsism", which he humbly wrote and recorded at age 38 in his kitchen, was self-released with the hope of a few listens. Instead, it became an overnight viral sensation. Over the following five years, Joep's penetrating and deeply moving songs gained more than 320 million streams (and rising). "Solipsism" was soon followed by the acclaimed albums "Prehension", "Conatus" , "Henosis" and "Trilogy".

Christo and Jeanne-Claude (w/ Simon Chaput)

Season 1 · Episode 11

Saturday, September 18, 2021 • Duration 52:31

Today in Paris marks the unveiling of the infamous Christo and Jeanne-Claude's posthumous dream project -- "L‘Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped”. Artlaws is thrilled to present a special event interview with celebrated artist and photographer Simon Chaput who knew Christo and Jeanne-Claude intimately, as both friend and colleague. After meeting the artist couple in New York in 1983, Simon quickly became an integral part of their life and their work.

Christo and Jeanne-Claude were an unparalleled artistic duo celebrated for their magnificent, monumental, and ephemeral environmental installations often unprecedented in scale -- such as "Running Fence" down the California coast, "The Gates" in New York’s Central Park, and "Wrapped Coast" in Australia. Also known for wrapping architecture and natural elements in fabric -- such as “Surrounded Islands” in Miami and the “Wrapped Reichstag” in Berlin -- their poetic public works transcended traditional boundaries of painting, sculpture, and architecture. What stands behind each work has always been a powerful call for freedom and beauty.

"L’Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped" -- a project first conceived by the artists sixty years ago -- has today been fully realized. We spoke with Simon leading up to and en route to this unprecedented event.

Moisés Kaufman

Season 1 · Episode 10

Monday, September 6, 2021 • Duration 01:02:35

Moisés Kaufman is a Tony and Emmy nominated playwright and director, best known for his revolutionizing plays that sensitively probe questions of culture and sexuality. As co-founder and Artistic Director of Tectonic Theater Project, Kaufman has been one of the most important voices in American theater over the past three decades.

Born in Venezuela to Orthodox Jewish parents, Kaufman came to New York in 1987 to study experimental theatre at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. It was during this time of great social upheaval that Kaufman began to consider new ways in which stories could be told on stage. By exploring and bending traditional formal elements, Kaufman set out to define a new theatrical experience. This exploration led to his two groundbreaking debuts -- "Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde" and "The Laramie Project".

While Kaufman’s work is experimental in nature, his productions have always reached wide audiences and attracted top talent, including Jessica Chastain, Jane Fonda, and Robin Williams. His Broadway credits include “The Heiress”, “33 Variations”, and the Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning “I Am My Own Wife” . A recipient of the National Medal of Arts, presented by President Barack Obama in 2016, Kaufman continues to push boundaries on stage while tackling society’s crucial issues.

Friday, August 20, 2021 • Duration 01:02:44

Zack James is the founder of Animeme Studios and creator of one of YouTubes' most successful and longest running animated series YO MAMA -- a channel that's garnered over 8 million subscribers across all platforms and over 2 billion views.

Considering the longstanding success of the franchise, many people are unaware that the show's creator is an autistic man who was born with non-verbal autism. He was never supposed to speak -- let alone, pioneer such phenomenal new media success. Originally gaining popularity as "Outback Zack", Zack started off as a YouTuber who published viral videos out of his grandparents’ trailer. Sensing an opportunity on the growing YouTube platform, Zack combined an early love for cartoons with his own boundary-pushing comedy to create one of the internet’s most successful franchises, now celebrating its 10th year anniversary.

And now, Zack is confronting tech giants like YouTube and Facebook. As algorithms continue to shift in favor of the corporations, Zack is fighting to ensure that they become more transparent and that the future of digital media is inclusive of all voices.
