Quinn Antonio Briceño: Reconnected

09/22/20 • 24 min

Meet Quinn Antonio Briceño, a Nicaraguan Irish American artist working in Saint Louis, Missouri. I got to speak with Quinn right before his first gallery solo show “Como Tu” at Houska Gallery. The artist’s work is a mix of hyper realism with a mix of exciting patterns and vivid colors influenced by Nicaragua and the Latinx diaspora. Listen in as Quinn talks about how he reconnects to his roots and mother tough through his work. Also, get the load down on “Bean Paper” and “Math Rock”!

Arlene Dávila: The Latinx Playbook

I am thrilled to chat with Arlene Dávila, Professor of Anthropology and American Studies at New York University. Her new book Latinx Art: Artists, Markets, and Politics wields her first hand experiences in the art world and leverages her tenured academic voice to bring together conversations that affect Latinx Artists across the country. Latinx poses questions that could be the playbook for what the new paradigm of the Latinx art and other Latinx endeavors, can look like in a post Covid world. Listen in as we talk about the many elephants in the art world, that to our own detriment, we have been trained to politely ignore. It is time to have these conversations, Arlene and her book are opening the forum, join us.

Master Minds, Covens and Gangs

Get together! Do you know what a “Master Mind” is? This once occult practice which was appropriated by American self-help capitalism, is a great way to continuously build a community around your art career and practice. Master Mind groups are constructed spaces where you give and receive very specific advice, attention and build on what you and others know. Listen in as I talk about my own Master Minds, some real, most made up. Join the conversation as share my experience with Septembrollage and I come to the conclusion that this Podcast is an art and “wellness” podcast! Listen in!
