There's a NFP organization in LA that I've come across only through the world wide web, but have really been interested in their programming. Side Street Projects does incredibly interesting and useful podcasts which I've been listening to lately. Last year's podcast series was titled "What Do Curators Want" and consisted of interviews with several well known curators asking questions about what they look for, how they want artists to approach them, what do they love/hate about being a curator, etc.
This year's series is called "Shop Talk". From the website:
Our new series— Shop Talk — debuts today and features frank conversations with your favorite contemporary artists. Hosted by artist Bari Ziperstein, you can think of Shop Talk like that “Inside the Actor’s Studio” show on Bravo, except for visual artists. What are some misconceptions about being a contemporary LA artist? How do you juggle deadlines, personal life, and your day job? Has your life suffered because of art?These are tough questions, and Bari gets some very honest answers from some of LA’s most celebrated and respected artists.
Have a listen. You won't be disappointed.
