  • The mind-expanding universe of Juliana Huxtable

    The mind-expanding universe of Juliana Huxtable
    Oct 26 2023
    This show is a little different from usual as we’re coming to you directly from Fotografiska Berlin’s Ballroom in Berlin, where we hosted an artist interview with Juliana Huxtable, hosted by artist Monilola Olayemi Ilupeju as part of the Fotografiska Berlin opening week program. Juliana Huxtable, a Texas-born artist currently based in New York and Berlin, is renowned for her thought-provoking pieces of art that take form in painting, photography, poetry, and video. Her works deal with issues related to identity, futurity, and politics. In this recording, Juliana Huxtable discusses ‘–USSYPHILIA’, her most extensive European solo exhibition, and how her vision for transcending identity and gender boundaries reaches far beyond the human sphere. Juliana and Monilola also touch upon Juliana’s fascination with semantics, the joy of collaborating with friends, and her band Tongue In The Mind’s debut single ‘Pretty Canary’ and music video, which is currently on show at Fotografiska Berlin until 10th January 2024. This podcast is a condensed version of the original conversation, which you can find on Fotografiska Berlin’s YouTube channel for the complete experience.

  • The body in contemporary art through the female lens

    The body in contemporary art through the female lens
    Sep 30 2023
    Traditionally, women’s role in the arts has been relegated to only one aspect: their bodies. But a current exhibition at Fotografiska Berlin features artworks and portraits that explore our enduring fascination with the unclothed human body, all from a distinctly female lens. In this episode, Tsellot speaks with Johan Vikner, the Global Director of Exhibitions at Fotografiska, fashion editor and critic Dao Tran about how these 30 female artists from over 20 countries challenge the prevailing history of the male point of view in art. Additionally, Artists Elinor Carucci, Marie Hald, and Leah Schrager share their different approaches to portraying female bodies and their broader relationship to body politics. Check out all of the artworks mentioned in this episode for yourself until the end of the year at our Fotografiska museum located in Berlin-Mitte.
