Description

Stephanie Dueñas and Russell Shoemaker discuss Attorney Street (Handball Court with Autobiographical Poem by Piñero); a language packed and illustrative painting of 80’s era Lower East Side by a lesser known artist, Martin Wong, from 1984. Pick up our new Art Slice Museum Shirt by Son Siwakorn here: https://www.artslicepod.com/shopIn this episode, we discuss Martin Wong’s time in, and inspiration from, the crumbling New York of the 1980s. Topics include: Boutique Yoga Studios and a multitude of Jerry Seinfelds over running NYC throughout the decades. Hey Arnold. BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ artists thumbing their noses at the conventional art genres. The first ever Graffiti museum. Wong’s short life and interest in the people around him. And some groans for the Supreme x Martin Wong collection.Follow us on twitter, tiktok, youtube, and instagram all @artslicepodYou can also support us on Patreon here and/or grab some merch: https://www.artslicepod.com/shopAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

A humorous, inclusive, and Palatable Serving of Art History, brought to you by visual artists and Art Historian Stephanie Dueñas and Russell Shoemaker. We cover Art History in a totally different way - without all the gatekeeping, privilege, and that cognitive fog called ‘art speaking’. We dig into the famous artists you may have slept through during your Art History lectures, and the ones that have been left out; possibly due to their ethnicity, gender, race, sexual identity, or lack of institutional access. We talk about the context of the time, relate it to today and then we discuss the actual artwork: what’s in it, what it’s about, what’s it made from - is it any good? All from an artist’s perspective, and then we decide if it goes in the eclectic Art Slice Museum - which is definitely real and NOT imaginary. Oh… and we have to keep our hungry, hungry Pantrémons satiated by feeding them practical descriptions of art mediums and movements from our Art Slice Pantry, or they might eat us.
