Visual Artist Studio Secrets with A. M. Caballero & A. Jabre: MY ART TOOLS

My Art Tools is a segment associating two art talks where an established visual artist opens their tool box: what is their fetish instrument? An artist life can get as technical as it can be spiritual. In fact, they may be related... Hosted by Joana P. R. Neves.Guests: Ana María Caballero and Alexandra Jabre.This segment is as much: an art education as an introduction to art critique, by empowering you with art tips art techniques we seldom talk about. But most of all, a visual artist's hand guides you through the passion of following one’s vision, the pleasures of trusting an instinct, and the resilience it takes to work creatively. After all, creative processes are everywhere, for the visual artist as for any problem-solving situation, with an added philosophical twist. Our two guests also discuss what it takes to embark on a creative life, what it takes to create poetry, sculpture, and more. What sacrifices do you make, what path do you take, and what kind of healing does art bring?

The Other Side of The Mirror: Art Spaces in the Age of Online Life

Art Topic is an art discussion segment about intriguing art themes, or exciting new approaches to classic art topics in visual arts, with art experts, thinkers or curators. This time, host and art writer Joana P. R. Neves shares some insights about art spaces in light of our presence in online spaces, through her relatively new role as a female podcaster.A part of our work and leisure is spent online and so is our art. Posted on social media and even made with the help of AI, LLMs, and more, creative initiatives and art objects may now also live in online art spaces. Is an art podcast to be confused with it? What are the joys and dangers of real art spaces becoming virtual ones? Or is the danger elsewhere, and the art education potentially everywhere? Does being present online affect our presence IRL in galleries, museums and art spaces in general? Two exhibitions stimulated this critique of digital engagement and creativity: Peter Doig's House of Music and Danielle Brathwaite Shirley's The Delusion at the Serpentine gallery. Before we visit the two exhibitions, and proposing an art review of sorts, Joana analyses how her work as an art podcaster provides insights into the realities of new technologies, creativity, the social feedback loop and having a sentient body.Art spaces can and should help us understand the impact of the internet and AI on our humanity.For further reading, Joana has written extensively on Substack about the reception of art, spectatorship and the exhibitions aforementioned: https://joanaprneves.substack.com/p/the-comedy-of-contemporary-artSubscribe to Exhibitionistas on our Substack page.
