• 154: Jeremy Geddes | Radio Juxtapoz

  It took Melbourne's Jeremy Geddes over 5 years to make his newest solo show, Periphery, for Thinkspace Projects, and it's been over a decade since he last had a show all together. He is a patient man, a man who loves the details, making personal and universal works that are about the human condition in relation to explorations of space, our soul and our relationship the technology all around us. He is an explorer of the smallest details, a painter who doesn't just have the technical skill of past masters from centuries before, but a problem of solver of the self. So it took him 5 years to make this show, and, while on the plane to Los Angeles in the first week of January, 2025, it took Los Anglees a few hours to be changed forever. Time is fascinating that way; an artist and mother nature have different schedules. Speaking of schedules, we schedules this conversation with Jeremy a few weeks ago, just before he made his trip to Los Angeles for the solo show at Thinkspace Projects, his first solo show in over a decade and a culmination of work made since 2019. Before the pandemic, to now. Quite a significant moment for him, and for us, a moment to connect with a past cover artist, a vital artist in our history. As fires were ravaging LA's hills and communities, Jeremy and I had this conversation with heavy hearts. With heavy minds. Past guest of Radio Juxtapoz, featured artists in the magazine, friends, family, colleagues, all lost homes in these fires. Friends, family and colleagues have homes threatened right now, as I recond this. It’s a tragedy, it’s unthinkable, it’s been quite unimaginable. In this conversation, Jeremy and I speak about that attention to detail, about how he sees the scope of his life finally seeing this show all together and how much of his work isn't informed by science fiction but our need to explore what it is that moves us, no matter how small or how significant. —Evan Pricco Radio Juxtapoz' Unibrow podcast is hosted by Juxtapoz editor, ⁠⁠⁠Evan Pricco⁠⁠⁠.

• 153: Umar Rashid | Radio Juxtapoz

  It isn't often we invite a guest to come onto Radio Juxtapoz for a second time, but Umar Rashid is beyond an exception. He's a friend with something to talk about, a new show, yes, The Kingdom of the Two Californias. La Época del Totalitarismo Part 2 at BLUM in Los Angeles... but we are also talking two days after the American election and an artist dedicated to history has something to say. A lot to say. "This epoch is exhausting," Rashid says, as we explore his own explorations of history and the cacophony of noise of the contemporary. In our wide-ranging conversation, we talk about making art in the midst of history happening around you, how you can tell stories from the past that explain our current and future selves and how much it takes to prepare a body of work that is about a narrative that demands a deeper read. Umar never shies away from telling us how our history is often over-looked, and although that seems simple, it's a plague of humanity to not look back in order to move forward. And art is his language... Radio Juxtapoz' Unibrow podcast is hosted by Juxtapoz editor, ⁠⁠Evan Pricco⁠⁠.

• 152: Danielle Mckinney | Radio Juxtapoz

  Something that will always exist, regardless of political landscapes and the changing of societal norms, is the need to honor space. ⁠Danielle Mckinney⁠ knows something about space, and waiting, and watching, and observing. As a photographer she practices these disciplines, and when she began to explore her desire to paint, she found something remarkably powerful: the space for the body to rest. Whether it was a fantasy or a dream, Mckinney's work is a powerful reminder that the art of protest can come in unexpected ways, that sound can reverberate from the quietest of moments and just how much rest and the act of being seen resonates so deeply. In this episode of the ⁠Radio Juxtapoz's Unibrow podcast⁠, Jux editor ⁠Evan Pricco⁠ speaks to Mckinney the day before the American election of 2024, which envelops the conversation with a bit of realistic uncertainty. Mckinney speaks of her shows in Europe in 2024, listening to Thom Yorke and the Cocteau Twins, her youth in Alabama and Georgia and giving woman of color the space and place to be seen. ⁠Subscribe to the Radio Juxtapoz podcast⁠⁠.  Radio Juxtapoz' Unibrow podcast is hosted by Juxtapoz editor, ⁠Evan Pricco⁠.

• 151: Koak | Radio Juxtapoz

  San Francisco's ⁠Koak⁠ has always been a mystery to us. Yes, of course she is an internationally exhibited painter and the cover of the Juxtapoz Fall 2024 Quarterly in time with her solo show at Perrotin in Paris in September, but that there is something non-era-specific about the work she makes. Timeless get overused, but Koak makes otherworldly paintings that are personal, emotional, universal, environmental and narrative all in one. In this episode of the Radio Juxtapoz's new Unibrow series, a more raw, uncut version of our podcast, Koak talks to me about her teen years in Santa Cruz, how she thinks of composing her installations in the vein of comic book storytelling, how a very difficult year led to quite a compulsive, painstaking process to make her show in Paris and how an upcoming institutional show in London makes her feel right at home.

• 150: Anthony Cudahy | Radio Juxtapoz

  Anthony Cudahy is at an interest time in his life when we spoke for the Radio Juxtapoz podast: he hadn't been in the studio for a bit. And who could blame him? He had concurrent solo shows open at Grimm and Hales in NYC, and his first museum show, Spinneret, had opened Ogunquit Museum of American Art in Maine earlier in the year and was about to open at the Green Family Art Foundation in Dallas the week of our conversation. A break, or at least taking it all in, seemed quite relatable.  And on this episode of Radio Juxtapoz, it does feel like Anthony is thinking about what is next, giving his most recent work and past works a little deeper look, deeper thoughts and really taking note of how the past 5 years of his life have really taking off. He is a painter of stories, of narratives, capturing his husband and friends in fragments that almost take on a life of their own. Maybe that is what it is all about; letting a painting take you somewhere, outside of yourself by of yourself, and just taking you to another place. That is what Anthony is really, really good at that.  The Radio Juxtapoz podcast is hosted by FIFTH WALL TV's Doug Gillen and Juxtapoz editor, Evan Pricco. Episode 150 was recorded in the NYC in October 2024. Follow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@radiojuxtapoz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
