This pod features a discussion about the show at the Smithsonian American Art Museum mentioned in Trump’s latest executive order curtailing free speech. You can see why these cowards feel so challenged.
Scary times ahead.

Comment | Despite what some critics claim, art today isn’t really too obsessed with ‘social justice’ @benlukeart.bsky.social

Morning inspiration:
‘Jeff Wall, The Thinker (1986)’
currently on show at White Cube, London @whitecube-official.bsky.social
I highly recommend seeing the show; a retrospective of Wall’s 30 year career.

The latest A brush with… is a conversation with Jeff Wall. Among the other works we discuss is one of his “hallucinations”, The Flooded Grave, 1998-2000.
So great to talk to this great artist.

Who is your tutor?
Time to start posting, then…
New series of A brush with… begins today with a stellar artist: Goshka Macuga. She speaks brilliantly about everything from the transformative effect of encountering Christo in an art mag to the subversive metaphors of Stanislaw Lem.
