It’s the first Friday of the month, and there’s two things you should be doing — going to Mainframe Studio’s first Friday event, and listening to the first ever episode of my new podcast, “FolkArtwork and Friends”.
In the first episode of FolkArtwork and Friends, I am thrilled to be talking to my friend Kylie Ryu (@kyliejryu), the Associate Director at Ricco/Maresca Gallery in New York City. I talk to Kylie about life before outsider art, how a random suggestion from her mom changed her art career, randomly stumbling upon the world of outsider art, and how competitive cheerleading helped her land a job she knew she was destined for.
Plus, a deep dive into the life and art of J.B. Murray, a self-taught abstract expressionist painter from Georgia, whose ghostly, colorful works of art helped ward off evil.
Be sure to check out Ricco/Maresca Gallery’s latest exhibit later this month, “Sarah Theresea Lee: What Big Eyes You Have”, opening September 18th from 6pm-8pm.
