Longing! Death! Materiality! + Open Call Submissions!
Today we have a very special guest–– Melissa Joseph, our summer Open Call guest curator–– a brilliant artist and independent curator who is interested in connecting people through collective memory and shared experiences. Her work addresses themes of diaspora, family histories and the politics of how we occupy spaces. We sit down and talk about her experience curating the open call, the trends that she noticed. Pivoting to discuss her life and art practice, including the current exhibition at Soloway gallery featuring her father’s photographs of his patient’s gallbladders, death, art, longing, materials and the archeological record plus Melissa’s upcoming exhibition and thoughts on the art world. But first, Jacob and I review the last two weeks of shows we have seen and gone to and talk about what’s been happening in our lives including Tiananmen Square and Will Chan’s Home Gallery. We then wrap things up with a list of shows to “go see” right now.
