Bad at Sports Episode 908: Rachel Adams and the Bemis Art Center

We sit down with curator Rachel Adams to talk about institutional evolution, artists as infrastructure, and how curatorial practice shifts between museums and biennials. Rachel reflects on working with artists like Cauleen Smith, Liz Magic Laser, and Beatriz Santiago Muñoz, the power of slow curation, and why she's drawn to hybrid spaces that defy the market.

Along the way: phantom titles, artist contracts, Minneapolis moments, and a manifesto in a box of ice cream bars.
