001 - Side talks - Covid 19 lockdown rambling

In order to keep my new regime of one podcast per month for obvious reasons it’s just me this time.
I don’t have a format for solo talks (yet), so it ended up being a stream of consciousness triggered by this extra ordinary situation of virus lockdown.

These are truly strange times. All our movements have been altered and restricted. Everywhere in the world at the same time. That’s new.

Although we in the creative field are used to taking hits, this one is of a different order it seems.

Enjoy my rambling stay positive and I would love to hear from you if you have any question comment.
Just send me an email to podcast@fridoshow.com
I hope you all are safe and sound out there!

031 - Gereon Krebber

Just in town for a couple of weeks Gereon made it over to my podcast studio. He arrived a bit shaken and in shock of having witnessed a car accident where a woman died. We both didn't really know how to address it but we send our love to the family and friends of the woman who died.
Then we spoke about the groupshow he organized at Fellesverkstedet for Praksis Oslo named Monumental — Temporal // The Work.
Sculpture, studio, production and all that jazz.

029 - Sveinn Fannar Jóhannsson

Sveinn's work has this urge to map, to collect, to categorize without being too much of a statement. These observation although often based in photography become installations, publications, sculptures and the likes.
We also talk about how his publishing relates to his practice and what it means to be a publisher.

Check out his work and read his books!

022 AC/CA panel talk (part 2)

This is the main talk that accompanied the exhibition Merete Mortensen and me organized at the National Academy of the Arts in Oslo. It was held on the 20th of October 2016. In this talk we are exploring the role of the artist as curator or the curator as the artist.
From LA we had Paul Paiement and Carl Berg participating. Max Presneill unfortunately couldn't make it to the talk.
From Oslo we had invited Jan Christensen, Ragnhild Aamås and Hanan Benammar.
Our moderator was Rike Frank.
It helps to listen to the first part (http://fridoshow.com/podcast/021-acca-first-talk-part-1) befor you start on this one.

021 AC/CA first talk (part 1)

Together with Jan Christensen, Ragnhild Aamås, Hanan Benammar, Paul Paiement, Carl Berg, Max Presneill, Rike Frank and Merete Mortensen we had a conversation in preparation for a panel talk we held the 20th of October 2016. This accompanied an exhibition Merete and me organized at the National Academy of the Arts in Oslo where we were exploring the role of the artist as curator or the curator as artist. We were interested in the different positions and strategies of each participant related to their locale (Oslo vs LA)
This talk was meant to get to know each other and present ourselves so we wouldn't have to dive in cold on the public talk the day after.
Enjoy!

020 Jan Christensen

Jan Christensen joined me for a talk in my studio. We touched upon production strategies, collaborations, being an artist based in multiple locations, the internet and what the work in the back of the studio is. And yes, he answers that question at the end.
