sculpture

In this episode, host Guy Kawasaki interviews Janet Echelman, an acclaimed sculptor known for her swooping, volumetric artworks made of fiber and suspended at an architectural scale over streets, parks, plazas, and waterways. Echelman traces her journey from studying painting to a turning point where she started working with sculpture using found materials, overcoming numerous obstacles with persistence to create never-before-seen floating artworks that provide peaceful, inspiring havens in the hustle of daily urban life. She also discusses her creative process of developing harmonious, site-specific installations that physically embody her belief that "art can serve as an inspiring voice to bring people together across boundaries of difference. In this episode, Guy also shares the release of his new book, Think Remarkable!

In this episode, we speak with one of Australia’s foremost contemporary artists, Lindy Lee.

Throughout her life and practice, Lindy has sought the answer to one of the most fundamental questions - where do I belong?

This investigation began in her childhood as a first-generation Chinese-Australian growing up in Brisbane during the 1950s and 60s. During the early years of her art practice, Lindy explored themes of family, personal identity, and history. Later, as Lindy began to engage with Taoism and Ch’an (Zen) Buddhism, this question expanded to examine her place within what she calls 'the cosmos'.

Lindy's monumental public sculptures feature prominently outside many of our national institutions. With a career spanning over four decades, Lindy has also achieved widespread international acclaim, showcasing her work in counties such as Canada, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, and Singapore.

In this episode, Globe Editor-in-Chief Andrew Haffner and his co-host Dy Sereyvoleak explore Phnom Penh’s role in shaping Cambodia’s contemporary culture, focusing on the city’s role in bringing art, music and other creative pursuits to the eyes, ears, and minds of the public. It may not rival global cultural giants like New York or Paris, but it undoubtedly plays a pivotal role in shaping popular taste and media in Cambodia.

The duo take a look at Phnom Penh’s evolving infrastructure supporting artistic endeavours, from art and music to various other lanes of creative craftsmanship. In the process, we hear from Sok Visal, founder of the music label and film production studio KlapYaHandz, and Yean Reaksmey, an art history lecturer, curator and critic. They also caught up with Sievphin Chong, better known as his alter ego Peace Chong, an independent musician and digital culture creator. All share some unique perspectives on Cambodian culture evolution.

Paul Weagraff interviews Stephen Kingsberry about his exhibition, “Burden of Palestine,” at the Christina Cultural Arts Center during Wilmington’s October Art Loop.

Anthony Caro is a giant of British architecture, who designed the London Millennium Footbridge spanning the Thames between St. Paul's Cathedral and the Tate Modern, who worked with Henry Moore, and who, with his vision and restless drive, broke through the stagnation of the art world in post-war Britain. A major exhibition of Anthony Caro’s work is currently on view at Pitzhanger Manor and Gallery in Ealing, West London, itself a landmark of the British cultural landscape. Over tea in her her Pitzhanger Manor -adjacent office, the gallery's director, Clare Gough, discusses with host Danielle Radojcin the way the work in the exhibition complements the space around it and opens up new ideas around Caro’s work.

Between 1964 and 1966, Stearns served in Vietnam and Japan as a photographer while on active duty in the U.S. Navy. Following his time in the service, he was a partner in a ceramics studio, Opus ll, where he taught ceramics as well as drawing and painting.

Stearns was a fire captain and paramedic with the Los Angeles County Fire Department from 1967 to 1988 and was a consultant on the television show Emergency!

Michael studied at California State University at Los Angeles

In 2002 he opened Gallery 33 in Long Beach, California. It exhibited artists such as Lori LaMont, Todd Brainard, Richard Lopez, Elizabeth Washburn, Adam Normandin and Roderick Briggs. The gallery closed in 2008.

In 2012 he moved his studio and gallery to San Pedro, under the name Michael Stearns Studio 347 and later to Michael Stearns Studio at the LOFT.

As a sculptor Michael works with cardboard and newspaper as a way to bring nature and urban society together.
 

In Michael’s artist statement, he explains how his work exemplifies his spirit. It reads in part:

"In my work I dig deep into the origin of life and explore the universal questions; how did we arrive and what is the force driving this existence?

I strive also to invite the observer into this place of examination.

As a painter, I work with organic shapes and mostly bold colors to intensify the imagery. In my sculptures I incorporate natural materials along with urban components, creating communication out of discord."

In this episode, we visit the studio and gallery of sculptor Hilarie Mais.

Hilarie's formative years as an artist began in London, followed by a potent stint in New York during the late 70s. For the last 40 years, she has settled in Sydney and enjoyed a highly successful career from Australia.

Hilarie's practice has been described as a dedication to the grid, with each of her works beginning from this same point. Hilarie has worked within this theme for over 30 years and our final conversation for the season explores how she has been able to maintain her commitment to this singular focus.

Show 118 Levi Hawken (NZ Artist/Skateboarder/Nek Minnit)

Welcome to ALTBAYS Show (feat. Leo Magri)

Meet Levi Hawken

Levi Hawken is a professional skateboarder (for Sector 9) from Dunedin, New Zealand. Hawken appeared in a viral video showing a scooter, apparently destroyed outside a dairy. The "nek minnit" video spawned many parodies and has become a popular slang term among the people of Aotearoa.

Hawken began his artistic career painting graffiti in Auckland City during the mid-1990s. 

Although much of his graffiti work is no longer visible, the influences in his more formal paintings remain. In the past eight years, his work has turned from the once public forum of the walls and spaces in our cities to a more private and formal review of his style. 

The new works embody Levi's concerns with his artistic demons and an emotional backlash against issues encased within the graffiti movement. Conflicted with the nature of street art through the constant personal and public battle, seeing one's art removed, vandalized and challenged from within the graffiti community and the public as a whole, Levi has made the poignant decision to take back ownership of his works by composing them on canvas, away from the public domain.

ALTBAYS Show invites awesome people from Aotearoa, New Zealand, to have an honest, laid-back conversation. Our platform focuses on bringing communities together to grow and thrive.

The artist Liz Magor discusses the new collection Subject to Change: Writings and Interviews (Concordia University Press, 2022), with Joseph Planta.

Show 73 Dave Fowell (NZ Artist)

Welcome to ALTBAYS Show (feat. Leo Magri)

Meet Dave Fowell

Dave started painting in 1993. He had a free-range poultry farm and then had the chance to create a cafe/restaurant in the Coromandel, the artistic and eccentric place, the Eggsentric. 

His vision was that the cafe would not only do food but also be a place where people would feel comfortable and have a cultural experience. Beautiful beach and cliffs, then coming into a large garden with organic flowers and vegetables and 40 odd sculptures before entering the restaurant where there is original art on the walls, exciting music (a lot live!) and great food.

Dave is an actor and musician, has an eco t-shirt business and is passionate about sculpturing.

He started with stone but now also does wood, constructed wood and perspex and temporary sculptures in the environment. He is always off on tangents with new materials or ideas, so there are a few unfinished works around waiting for the final subconscious push!

Enjoy an epic chat with Dave Fowell, a man ahead of his time.
