SFMOMA Artcasts: January 2012 enhanced)
asksfmoma@sfmoma.org (SFMOMA)
Author: SFMOMA Tue, Jan 10, 2012
In this episode we'll explore the ways artists relate to reality, either by documenting and responding to shared experience or by creating alternate worlds. First, we'll consider a contemporary artist's responses to a modern master in "Images in Dialogue: Paul Klee and Andrew Schoultz". Next, we'll visit "Sharon Lockhart: Lunch Break", an investigation of film, photography, and the daily routine of workers at a naval shipbuilding plant in Maine. Finally, in "The Air We Breathe", we'll examine artists' and poets' reflections on one of our society's most contentious issues: gay marriage. In each instance, the ways these artists engage the world around them reveals their perspective, and powerfully impacts our own.
"Wedding March" performed by Steve Bissinger on banjo.
Each SFMOMA Artcast brings you illuminating audio and video interviews with artists, curators, and visitors as they respond to the works on view and in the museum's collection.

asksfmoma@sfmoma.org (SFMOMA)
Author: SFMOMA Wed, Aug 17, 2011
In this episode we examine early twentieth-century salon culture. Our story begins with the gatherings of artists and patrons hosted by the Stein family – author Gertrude Stein, her brothers Leo and Michael Stein, and Michael’s wife Sarah Stein. First, art historian Emily Braun and SFMOMA curator Janet Bishop discuss the Stein Salons – how they formed and why people flocked to their homes. Next we hear from Wanda Corn, co-curator of “Seeing Gertrude Stein” at the Contemporary Jewish Museum, in a panel discussion on artist circles and sexuality. Wrapping up the segment we hear from Margaret Tedesco on an SFMOMA event called The Living Room, a series of conversations that revolved around significant moments in the Bay Area’s avant-garde history. We also hear from two participants in the event: Nate Boyce and George Chen, who discuss the Bay Area’s experimental music scene.

In the spring of 2011, SFMOMA became the first museum to mount a solo exhibition of the designer's work.

Next up, we look at two very different artists who bring the street into the galleries: Dorothea Lange and Barry McGee. Lange, a photographer who captured the devastation of daily life during the Depression, tells a story from her own front lines, followed by McGee, a contemporary artist who describes his work as a collection of moments from the street. McGee’s work is contextualized by Chris Brennan, coauthor of Bay Area Graffiti, who discusses bringing street art into the galleries, and by People Under the Stairs, who finish the episode with a track that evokes the spirit of McGee’s work.
