I had the privilege to meet Danny Volk during a 6 week artist residency at Banff Centre that just concluded last week. I was honored to be a participant in Danny's on-going series of artist interviews called "Made Up with Danny Volk." Danny has interviewed some very influential artists, mostly Chicago based and I am looking forward to the new season. I assume that the shows will feature many of the resident artists from the Banff Centre. While at Banff Centre, Danny participated in a thematic residency called "Confuse the Cat" coordinated by Michael Portnoy and Ieva Misevičiūtė. In the season finale of "Made Up with Danny Volk" Danny interviews Theaster Gates. Other guests: Amber Ginsberg, Casey Smallwood, Zachary Cahill, Catherine Sullivan, Jessica Stockholder, Tucker Rae-Grant, Pope L, Laura Letinsky, Anais Daly, Scott Wolniak, Paul Mgapi Sepuya, Zachary Harvey, Richard Williamson, and Dado Below is an audio recording of Danny's Artist Statement: http://www.dannyvolk.com/artiststatement.html |
