A conversation with digital artist and author diewiththemostlikes, whose work consists of short creative prose and digital graphics which examine the human condition through an absurdist lens. Die’s work is filled with scenes of consumption and excess by figures oblivious of the death and decay around them. I encourage listeners to follow the links in the episode description to understand more clearly the nature of his work, especially on the platform formerly known as Twitter. Previous guest Derek Edward Schloss also joins the conversation to talk about his new gallery Glitch Marfa and the artist residency “30 Days in Marfa'' which diewiththemostlikes is currently concluding. That conclusion will culminate with an NFT drop on Art Blocks titled “Nameless Dread”.

A conversation with the iconic Jeffrey Deitch regarding an exciting 2022 exhibition at Deitch’s Los Angeles gallery that has been synthesized into a new book titled "Luncheons on the Grass," available now from Rizzoli Electa. The innovative exhibition revisited and reimagined Édouard Manet’s seminal work, Le Déjeuner sur l’herbe, a painting that shocked the 1863 Parisian art scene and is often heralded as the first modern painting. Our conversation explores how Deitch convinced over thirty of today’s most acclaimed painters (including Cecily Brown, Jeff Koons and Christina Quarles) to respond to Manet's painting by creating works that dialogue with this historic piece, each bringing contemporary perspectives to themes of modernism, realism, and societal depiction. The result not only reconsiders Manet’s impact on modern art but also examines the intersections of historical reverence and contemporary creativity. Jeffrey and I are also joined for the conversation by Viola Angiolini, Director of Research and Curatorial Projects at Jeffrey Deitch Gallery.

A conversation with author Paul Thomas Murphy about his new book “Falling Rocket: James Whistler, John Ruskin, and the Battle for Modern Art”. The subject of the book is a landmark libel suit from 1878 that pitted the artist Whistler versus the most authoritative art critic of his time.
