15 JUL. 2025 · Renowned artist Andrea Fraser joins us to discuss art, institutions, and power. Since the 1980s, Andrea has used performance, video, and installation to critique the art world with humor and sharp insight, addressing gender, race, privilege, and the commodification of art. This conversation was recorded in collaboration with CIMAM during their 56th Annual Conference in Los Angeles.
2 ABR. 2025 · In this episode, we speak with Candice Hopkins, executive director and chief curator of Forge Projects, whose work as a citizen of the Carcross/Tagish First Nation centers on decolonizing institutions and integrating Indigenous knowledge within and beyond exhibition spaces. Drawing from a worldview where art, land, water, and culture are inseparable, Candice reflects on how Indigenous communities perceive art as part of a broader ecosystem rather than a segregated discipline. This conversation was recorded in collaboration with CIMAM during their 56th Annual Conference in Los Angeles, where Candice spoke on “Sustainable Communities: Indigenous Perspectives and Worldviews.”
21 ENE. 2025 · For our 37th episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with two Cristina Chirouze Montenegro, the founder of Mazorca and the artist Sofia Baussan whose stories were brought together by the shared interest of building cultural bridges between Central America and Europe.
Cristina shared how growing up in Guatemala during a period of political transition shaped her commitment to using art as a tool for social change. She spoke about founding Mazorca, a platform designed to create cultural bridges through residencies, exhibitions, and collaborations, creating bonds between Central America and Europe.
Sofia reflected on her personal journey of exploring memory and identity through her project 'Constellation des Terres,' which uses family photographs to uncover intimate histories and connections.
