  • Live at The New York Studio school with Ukrainian born artist, Alla Broeksmit, and sister and poet, Stella Hayes.

    “The New York Studio School was founded in 1964 by Mercedes Matter, in collaboration with a group of students and faculty, during a time of cultural ferment. To this day, it is bound by a sense of mission, one that has often stood in counterpoint to the prevailing tastes of the art world. During the heyday of Pop, conceptual art, and minimalism, the School emphasized drawing, working from life, and a sustained studio practice. To delve into the history, however, is to become aware of the contradictions inherent in a school run by some of the most passionate minds of the New York art world.“ Jennifer Sachs Samet

    Closely held memories of childhood in Kyiv and deeply rooted remembrances of family and beloved places fuel the dreamlike imagery of Alla Broeksmit’s art. Gestural brushwork and the tactility of hand-mixed pigments in the muted palette of faded frescoes lend texture and atmosphere to her expressively rendered paintings, evoking a sense of time past, recalled to the present. Broeksmit has pursued painting since the 1990s, studying at Parsons School of Design in New York City, then co-founding the Lots Road Group with fellow artists from the Heatherly School of Fine Art after moving to London in 1997. During this period, her paintings were primarily figurative and focused on portraiture, taking inspiration from the heavily impastoed, psychological portraits of Lucian Freud. In 2017, Broeksmit received her MFA from the New York Studio School, where Dean Graham Nickson encouraged her to work on a larger scale and to take “a more instinctual, visceral approach” to painting. Instructors Judy Glantzman, Kyle Staver, and Elisa Jensen were also instrumental in her development of an individualized visual language and in exposing her to the descriptive and emotional expression of color, as seen in her work.


    Stella Hayes is the author of a poetry collection, One Strange Country (What Books Press, November 2020). Hayes earned a creative writing degree at University of Southern California. Her work has been nominated for the Best of the Net and for the Pushcart Prize, as well as appeared in Prelude, The Poetry Project’s The Recluse, The Lake and Spillway, among others, and is forthcoming from Stanford’s Mantis and Poet Lore. She began her life in a book-filled home in an agricultural town an hour outside of Kiev, then part of the Soviet Union. In 1977, her family of five — her father excluded — left for the U.S., settling first in Chicago. At USC, she studied creative writing with a focus on poetry with celebrated poet David St. John, chancellor of the Academy of American Poets. More recently, she has taken advanced classes in poetry and fiction at 92Y and was asked to do a reading there in the spring of 2018. She is a graduate student at NYU M.F.A in poetry and is assistant fiction editor at Washington Square Review.

  • Marina Press Granger worked in the NYC Art World for years, mostly as a gallery director and hated seeing artists get the runaround. Working in galleries during the time that social media became a thing, she realized that the internet was causing a massive shift in the art world. Suddenly artists had so much more power in curating their online presence which allowed them to get in front of anyone and everyone without traditional gatekeepers. So, in 2018 she started THE ARTIST ADVISORY, a company that guides visual artists on how to progress in their careers and get their work OUT THERE. To date, Marina has reached thousands of artists teaching them the business side of being an artist while helping them navigate using the internet to gain connections. In addition to using analytical business acumen acquired through years of experience and a BA & MA in Art History, Granger also uses the mindset shifts and spiritual tools to enhance the success of the artists she works with. She is also a Reiki Master and certified in Classical Chinese Feng Shui.

  • Meg Lionel Murphy: Painting After PTSD From Domestic Violence

    *Content warning - Domestic Violence, Substance Abuse*

    Meg Lionel Murphy paints a dreamworld where suffering transforms femme bodies into a monstrous size, so that their pain must be seen, felt, and acknowledged. Murphy received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Minnesota—Twin Cities, with three majors: Art, Art History, and English Literature. Additionally, Meg studied classical oil painting in Florence, Italy. After graduation, Meg worked as a children’s illustrator, co-founded the literary and art magazine, Paper Darts, and co-directed the arts and social justice non-profit, Pollen Midwest.

    A diagnosis of severe PTSD from domestic violence led Murphy to leave her career in publishing to focus on painting and healing. She moved back to her childhood home in rural Wisconsin where she started painting in her father’s junkyard, in a studio shack that was converted from an industrial cooler. As her art took off, she moved her studio to an old storefront—that was built as a church in the 1880s.

    Recent solo shows include “Traumatica Dramatica'' at The Untitled Space Gallery (New York), “Interior Violence” at CoExhibitions Gallery (Minneapolis), and solo booths with SPRING/BREAK Art Show (New York and Los Angeles). Recent group shows include “10 @ 10” at The Wisconsin Museum of Art, “Pleasure Garden'' at Laurie Shapiro Gallery (Los Angeles), and “In Her World” at Voltz Clarke (New York). Her painting has been acquired by the Minnesota Museum of American Art. Her artwork has been featured in a variety of publications including Hyperallergic, Bitch, Artnet News, and Forbes.

  • On Season 4, Episode 8 of The Art Career, Emily sits down with Jemima Kirke and her two cats in her Brooklyn home. The actress, painter, writer, and lover of movies shares insights about performance, vulnerability, love, and much more in this candid interview.

    Jemima Kirke is a British-American artist, actress and director. She gained international acclaim through her role as Jessa Johansson in the 2012 HBO series Girls. She made her film debut in the 2005 indie short Smile for the Camera and her feature-length debut in Tiny Furniture, as a favour for her childhood friend Lena Dunham.

    In 2017, she starred in Zayn's music video for the single "Dusk Till Dawn" featuring Sia

    Kirke next had supporting roles in the dark comedy films Ava's Possessions and The Little Hours. In 2018, Kirke starred alongside her real-life sister Lola Kirke in Emma Forrest's film Untogether. The film premiered at the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival. In 2011, Kirke appeared in the music video "Wring It Out" for the group Rival Schools. Both this music video and Smile for the Camera were directed by her friend Jordan Galland. In 2017, she appeared in the music video for "Gotta Get a Grip" by Mick Jagger, directed by Saam Farahmand and appeared opposite Alex Cameron in his music video for the song "Stranger's Kiss". In September 2017, Kirke appeared opposite Zayn Malik in his music video for the song "Dusk Till Dawn"

    In 2021, Kirke appeared in the Netflix series Sex Education in the role of Hope, headmistress of Moordale Secondary School. In 2021, it was announced that Kirke had accepted a role in Conversations with Friends, a series based on the book of the same name by Sally Rooney, in which she plays Melissa, an older, experienced writer fascinated by a younger couple. In 2023, Kirke starred in the Apple TV+ series City on Fire, based on the book of the same name

    Kirke majored in art as a student and received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2008. In late 2011, she held an exhibition titled "A Brief History" through Skylight Projects. In late 2017 to early 2018 she had a show at Sargents Daughters where she exhibited portrait-style paintings.

  • On Season 4, Episode 7, Emily sits down with artist Jenna Gribbon, in her studio in Brooklyn, NY.

    Brooklyn-based painter Jenna Gribbon’s figurative canvases present tender, uncanny scenes of everyday life while challenging the art historical conventions of the gaze. Gribbon reckons with the patrilineage of her medium, upending the tropes—such as the artist-muse relationship—and the established approaches that she inherited. She reconceives the act of looking as a reciprocal one, marked by empathy and mutual gratification. Utilizing the alla prima technique with a precise and animated hand, she offers unguarded glimpses into her life with her wife, the musician Mackenzie Scott, as well as her young son and circle of friends. She often depicts moments that push the limits of public and private, agency and consent, and exhibition and exploitation. Painting with an acute awareness of the viewer, Gribbon plays with the voyeuristic impulse while bringing visibility to expressions of sapphic love.

    Born in 1978 in Knoxville, Tennessee, Gribbon studied painting at the University of Georgia (2001) and received her MFA from Hunter College (2019). In 2011, in Long Island City, Gribbon co-founded the Oracle Club, a literary salon and creative space. Gribbon’s work has been presented in exhibitions at the Frick Museum, New York; Museum of Modern Art, Warsaw; Museum of Contemporary Art, Jacksonville, Florida; Kurpfälzisches Museum, Heidelberg, Germany; Kunsthalle der Hypo-Kulturstiftung, Munich; Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth; Georgia Museum of Contemporary Art, Atlanta; and the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts, Helsinki, among many others. Her paintings reside in the collections of X Museum, Beijing; Dallas Museum of Art; Rubell Family Collection, Miami; Brant Foundation, New York; and FLAG Art Foundation, New York.

  • Let's travel back to season 2 and listen to a powerful conversation with Mickalene Thomas.

    In Episode 1, Season 2 of The Art Career we welcome artist Mickalene Thomas. In preparation for her solo exhibition at Musée de l'Orangerie in Paris, we discuss the power of art, reincarnation, and how black erotica fills the void of aspirational love. The Art Career Podcast is available on Apple, Spotify, and Google. Link in bio.

    Mickalene Thomas was born and raised in New Jersey and lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. One of the most influential artists today, her innovative practice has yielded instantly recognizable and widely celebrated aesthetic languages within contemporary visual culture. She is known for her elaborate paintings composed of rhinestones, acrylic, and enamel. Not only do her masterful mixed-media paintings, photographs, films and installations command space, they occupy eloquently while exploring the intersecting complexities of black and female identity within the Western canon.

    Thomas received a B.F.A. from the Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NY in 2000 and an M.F.A. from Yale University School of Art, New Haven, CT in 2002.

    In 2012, a blockbuster Brooklyn Museum exhibition established Thomas as one of the leading artists of her generation. In the decade since, Thomas’ work has been purchased by institutions ranging from the Museum of Modern Art to the Guggenheim, from the Whitney to the Studio Museum in Harlem and from museums in Boston, Chicago, Tokyo and more. She has held solo exhibitions all over the world.

    Thomas has truly become a master of the female nude form and erotic suggestion in addition to having the drive and commitment to her practice that is unparalleled.

  • Welcome to season 4 of the Art Career. We start the season on a beautiful fall day in a kitchen in NYC’s Chinatown. Before we sit down for our interview, artist Mathew Tully Dugan cooks the most delicious small plate for my editor Ben and myself; Thomas Keller’s potato pavé with whipped roasted bone marrow, salt cured egg yolk, hackleback caviar and wasabi microgreens. A most delicious way to launch Season 4!

    Matthew Tully Dugan (b. 1986) Rochester, NY born and NYC based multidisciplinary artist. Dugan's interests span celebrity, psychology, pop iconography, privacy, and fanaticism. Dugan often employs promotional, social, and found imagery in a practice motivated by digital media’s physical and emotional divide. His paintings, sculptures, installations, texts, and curatorial projects collapse the popular and the subcultural, the collective and the personal, as a means of processing contemporary conditions and their impact on the psyche.
    Recent exhibitions include solo shows at Will Shott, NY (2023), 56 Henry, New York (2022), Loveclub, NY (2021), Fierman, New York, NY (2018) as well as a public works in collaboration with Half Gallery, NY (2023). Dugan also runs a curatorial program, Art Death with yearly exhibitions in Miami Beach.

    Tully's upcoming exhibition, "Inferno", will open at Lomex's new Walker Street project space this Halloween. It will be up until November 5th.
