SFMOMA Artcasts: April 2011 (no images)




Raw Material show

Summary: When did the museum become a marketplace? In this episode of SFMOMA Artcasts we hear from the artists and workers involved with Stephanie Syjuco’s installation ShadowShop – an alternative store temporarily set up in one of SFMOMA’s fifth-floor galleries. We also hear from the fiancé of the late contemporary designer Tobias Wong, Tim Dubitsky, who discusses references to love in Wong’s work. Next we turn to photography: artist Michael Light describes the voyeuristic nature of his aerial shots, and artist and writer Rebecca Solnit discusses Eadweard Muybridge, the revolutionary nineteenth-century photographer who helped lay the groundwork for motion pictures. 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.
