Another detour into the world of cinema. Legendary Soviet director Andrei Tarkovsky reshaped how we think about the image—through time, movement, and the frame itself. I take a deep dive into his life and work with Russian historian Raymond De Luca.

To wind down the year I am presenting an encore of my episode with the great Todd Hido. We had this conversation back in 2022, so if you're a new listener, here's your chance to dive into a terrific talk with one of today's major photographers. So much valuable insight shared here... thank you again, Todd!

In the aftermath of World War II, a stark new visual language was developing in Japan. No photographer epitomized this provoking new direction more than Daido Moriyama. I welcome editor and writer Mark Holborn to discuss the seminal work being presented (finally) in the new book Daido Moriyama: Quartet.

Excited to welcome Michael Ackerman back to the podcast. We talk all about his return to New York on the eve of his newest book release, appropriately titled "Homesick New York." An inspiring artist shares his process.

My guest for this episode is multi-talented, multi-media artist Martin Venezky. We discuss graphic design, collage and, of course, photography. All of this while pondering the challenges of staying curious as you move through life, and learning new things, no matter how old you are. Really enjoyed this conversation; I hope you do, too.
