Truth! Desire! Lack!
Today on Field Pod, Directors Jacob Rhodes and Kris Racaniello sit down with curator Michael Howard and artist El Perez in his current exhibition FROM WHAT I REMEMBER, on the night of the first day of our install. We discuss class-bias at the moment of entry into the art world and the difficulties of attaining professional development from a position of poverty. In a sprawling conversation we cover topics from painting techniques and validity to the art market, shop class as soulcraft, car crashes, rubbernecking, the ways that stereotypes play on unconscious signals, memorials and their secret stories, as well as desire and comedy in art. We especially discuss the term “lack” and Elbert’s special brand of existential signification. Then we wrap things up with a short list of shows to GO SEE.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
