After a longer pause we are back with a fantastic conversation the artist Nathan Gulick, visiting town from LA for his solo show, Waiting Room, at C4 Projects. We met and had a live recording at C4, and it was both a lot of fun and very interesting. Nathan is eloquent and engaged, and we got a great podcast out of it. Please enjoy and be sure to check out the installation images from the exhibition.

And we are back! Thanks for hanging in there. Today we have a conversation we’ve been really excited to share with you, with the artist FOS, also known by his government name of Thomas Poulsen. This talk was recorded during the summer when he had a quite ambitious show up at Gallery Nils Stærk here in Copenhagen, and it turned out to be a really fun one. He was really interesting to speak with and we had a good long talk about many subjects, please enjoy.

The warm months have fully settled upon the land, and with every Danish summer comes the yearly tradition of Roskilde Festival, one of the world’s largest music festivals. For many years now they have also had a surprisingly ambitious art zone during the festival, with running themes and critical commentary on social and political issues. We spoke with the head curator, Mette Woller, and three of the exhibiting artists, Jillian Mayer, Oskar Koliander, and Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen.

We have Signe Vad on the show today, which is very exciting, and has been a long time coming. She is an exceptionally hard working artist, with tons of projects always in the works as well has her own production, and she somehow gets it all done. She is a serial collaborator, exhibition space leader and cultural front runner, and we have the pleasure of hearing about it. Our talk is also fascinating because she talks a lot about her doubts, thoughts and dreams about her total practice. Enjoy!

Todays the guests are the artist group Mathias & Mathias. They had a show up at Overgaden a little while back, and we were fortunate enough to have the chance to sit down and talk to them. It was a great conversation, touching on many topics, with a lot of behind the scenes talk, which is always interesting. They are a group you should keep an eye on, they have a lot of interesting projects in the pipeline. Enjoy!

Today we are terribly excited to bring you an actually well timed conversation, with the wonderful Jonas Liveröd. It’s been a while coming, but it fits perfectly, because already on this Friday, April 20th, he has a solo show opening at the great Steinsland Berliner Gallery in Stockholm. We feel that Jonas needs no introduction, his work is excellent and lively, and we do a pretty good job of covering things in the talk. Please enjoy our conversation with Jonas Liveröd!

Today, in serendipitous timing, we are joined by the art group Sara, Peter & Tobias, who were kind enough to sit down with us for a wide ranging conversation about their first book, Phenomina. And just last week they won the BJP International Photography Award for their new project, The Merge. We had a very interesting conversation together not only about their projects, but also about the role of ego in photography, authorship, research, fundraising, and giving up your individuality to...

When you talk process with an artist, many similarities between practices begin to pop up over time, but there are also those occasions where you hear about more independent ways of working and thinking. There is a balance to doing your homework & research, yet keeping a sense of mystery, happy accident and experimentation, and I think Johan is one of the people who have been on this program who exemplifies that best.

We are very proud to bring to you today a wonderful conversation with Ditte Ejlerskov recorded a couple of months ago. Talking to her was a reminder of so many important things one must hold dear as an artist; choosing the harder path at times, about trust in yourself and your relationship to your practice, the value of plain old hardheadedness. Ditte has a big show up at Kristiansand Kunsthal in Norway called The Muse, so if you are in that part of the world then be sure to check it out. Enjoy!

We had the great pleasure of meeting and speaking with Yazan Khalili last week, who is the winner of the extract prize 2015 from GLStrand. We had a really fantastic talk about making art, politics, representation and working under tough conditions. Yazan is very dedicated to and active in art and culture in general, and on top of it is an interesting artist, so go see his show at GLStrand (up until 11th march), and enjoy our talk with Yazan Khalili.

We have Todd James on the show today. Todd is a really interesting artist, because he has been able to straddle so many different worlds throughout his career, and that is something a lot of people are afraid of doing, perhaps feeling that it would somehow dilute what they do, or confuse an audience. Todd doesn’t seem to have that fear. His credits are many, his skill plentiful, so let’s just get straight to our talk with him. Enjoy!

Welcome back, and happy New Year to all! We have a great artist and incredibly sweet human on the show today; Nanna Debois Buhl. The more I hear about what she does, and how she does it, the more I fall in love with her work. It’s thoughtful, well-researched and also very tactile, which I find to be a rare combination today. Often it’s hard for artists to lean equally on research and material when creating projects. Enjoy!

Hello friends - we are tremendously proud to announce the launch of our new podcast network Cultural Bandwidth, as well as the new podcast we are blasting off with on the new network, By The Way: A Contemporary Art News Podcast. Cultural Bandwidth is the world's first podcasting network based around art, and we couldn't be happier to share this with you.

The guest today is Niels Pugholm. We were introduced to him through a captivating artist run space out in Valby, (an outer neighborhood of CPH) called KVADRAT16, and we sat down and talked right before he opened his show there. He a thoughtful, interesting artist who has been super active the last couple of years, popping up here and there with some wry and interesting shows.

A couple of weeks ago the National Gallery of Art (SMK) here in CPH unveiled a bronze sculpture in front of the museum by Gillian Wearing called A Real Danish Family. This is also in conjunction with an exhibition of her works, they are both well worth seeing. We were lucky enough to have the chance to sit down with Gillian to talk both about the sculpture she made about this danish family, and about her work in general. Enjoy!

The guest today is Jean Marc Bustamante and he of course has a long and storied art career, well worth looking into, but he also has a history as a teacher, and now as the director of École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts, a prestigious art school in Paris. For those who are around CPH at the moment, he also has a show up at Gallery Susanne Ottesen, which functions as a retrospective of sorts, and is very much worth seeing. He is a wise and humorous man, so please enjoy our talk with him!

We are joined today by artist extraordinaire Malin Gabriella Norden, who was here in town for the CHART Art Fair. It’s a pleasure to talk to the people who’s work is dictated by a relationship to their materials and their drive to move said work forward. These are practitioners who dedicate themselves to the process of making, and view their work in the long term. And to put it simply, it’s refreshing, and not at all a disadvantage.

We have the fantastic Zven Balslev on today, which has been a long time coming, and we ended up talking about many facets of the art world, having a practice, and about the kind of expectations-slash-priorities you might have. One of the great things about making this show is hearing diverse viewpoints on this mess of making art, and Zven’s view on it is great. It’s one you honestly don’t heard often enough. Please enjoy our talk with Zven Balslev!

We are back again here on the other side of CHART Art Fair with our wrap up from the events this year. Part one features a short discussion with the panel of speakers from one of the Chart Art Talks, namely Peter Pakesch, Shwetal Patel, Sofia Hernández Chong Cuy, Hans-Ulrich Obrist and Mark Rappolt. The second part of the show is guested by Helga Christoffersen, curator at The New Museum, who curated an exhibition of emerging nordic artists for the fair, by the name of CHART Emerging.

In honor of our new collaboration with the CHART Art Fair, we have special episode out today, featuring some of the founding galleries and the director of the fair. Through talking with them about the ideas behind the fair and some of the guiding principles, we’ve compiled an oral history of sorts as a warm up to the event. It’s the 5th anniversary of the fair, and it was tremendously interesting to hear from the folks behind it, and there were even a few surprises along the way.

Hello everybody, welcome back. We have a fantastic guest on the show today, Kenneth Balfelt. For those who don’t know, his practice is one which truly is social, and it’s really incredible. He’s our new superman. He works with marginalized groups, often in the public sphere, on a political, architectural and artistic level, and it’s often highly collaborative. But we’ll let him tell the story himself. Enjoy!

We have Jesper Carlsen on the show today. His exhibition at Martin Asbæk Gallery unfortunately just came down, but we managed to grab him and hear about the show before it did. He has a diverse and forward thinking practice which utilizes many tools from the digital and technology worlds, and since we are big fans of the crossover between tech and art it was great to hear about his work. It’s current, it’s interesting and it’s engaging. So let’s get straight to it, enjoy our talk with Jesper...

Today we have Peter Voss-Knude on the show, this was recorded live at Overgaden together with the director there, Marete Jankowski. Peter has created an exhibit at Overgaden and album of music, all in collaboration with the Danish Army, and it's really something. After our talk we have included one of the tracks which is called Goodbye my Friend. Stick around and listen to that. Enjoy

We are back with our special 100th episode! It’s been over three years of this program, 100 guests, and a lot of ups and downs. Did we mention that Tal R is the special guest for the 100th episode? He needs no introduction right? We talked about many things, including being in the entertainment industry, teaching, and many other topics, he is very generous in the way he talks about life and art.
