EPISODE 5: RICHIE CULVER

Art Proof Podcast

play

10/28/19 • 64 min

This time round we're joined by artists Richie Culver. We visited Richie in his studio in West London earlier this year and had a really interesting, fun and at times intimate chat about his life and practice and how he got to where he is today. We cover a lot of stuff in the conversation from addiction, being a self taught artists and parenthood to Bruce Lee, pigeon fancying, mumble rap and caravans. We also delve into Richie's past: growing up in Hull, living in Ibiza as a young raver and his time making art from newspapers he found in a New York crack house. We really enjoyed this one and there's a bit of a rolling start so bare with it as it takes a minute or so to really kick in - I just really didn't want to cut any out. So listen to the end where there is info on how to contact us and subscribe and also info on projects Richie has coming up.

02/22/19 • 44 min

This episode is a conversation with artist Mike Ballard. Mike's work reacts to and in some cases is made from the city he lives in. He's fascinated by ownership and how private and public non-spaces impact our lives so heavily. He often removes and replaces aged hordings and construction netting from building sites to form the basis of his pieces. We chatted to Mike about his life, work and his path into contemporary art in his studio in East London

Art Proof Podcast

09/23/18 • 50 min

Episode 1 is a conversation with artist John Costi, who is part of this year's Young London 2018 exhibition, at V22. As well as making art John is involved in social projects in the community that he grew up in. We talk about art and graffiti and how they co exist in a slightly awkward way, and about how art can be used as a means of rehabilitation. We also talk about John's slightly unorthodox path into contemporary art, his time behind bars and how he feels he fits in to the current creative landscape. Sadly for this episode Rowan couldn't make it, so we were joined by Lima based journalist Alex Houghton who has been working on a documentary in Burkina Faso about rehabilitation in prisons there.
