Episode 21 | Danny Lyon

Recorded in: Bernalillo, New Mexico
Episode Length: 53:38
Air Date: June 20, 2018

Produced by: Jordan Weitzman
Edited by: Cristal Duhaime

Danny Lyon is a living legend in photography. Born in 1942 to a Russian-Jewish mother and German-Jewish father, he grew up in Kew Gardens, Queens and went on to study history and philosophy at the University of Chicago. Beginning in the early 1960’s while in his early twenties, he was drawn to the civil rights movement in the south which he immersed himself in and documented. He became lifelong friends with Julian Bond and congressman John Lewis, whom he lived with in an apartment in Atlanta. He was in jail with Martin Luther King, jr. During that decade, he became a member of the Chicago Outlaw biker gang which he photographed over a period of a few years and he made work in a Texas prison that would eventually become the books, The Bikeriders (1968) and Conversations with the Dead (1971), respectively. 

Lyon is a Guggenheim fellow twice over (1969 & 1978) and his work is held in countless museum collections around the world including in The Museum of Modern Art, The Whitney and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

While he devoted himself to photography throughout the 60’s, he turned to film in the early 70’s. His first film, Social Sciences 127 is about a wild tattoo artist named Bill Sanders, which he shot and then edited at Robert Frank’s apartment. It was at his apartment that Frank introduced Lyon to Danny Seymour, who would give him a cheque for $7,000 to finish his next film, Llanito. As a result of Seymour financing his film, Lyon was able to use his own savings to buy a piece of irrigated land in Bernalillo, New Mexico. He built a house on the land with an undocumented Mexican worker named Eddie, which he and his wife Nancy still live in today. We conducted this interview in the living room of their house.

Episode 20 | John Edmonds

Recorded in: Brooklyn, NY
Episode Length: 41:43
Air Date: May 15, 2018

Produced by: Jordan Weitzman
Edited by by: Cristal Duhaime

A friend recently told me that John Edmonds pictures of african American men in Do-Rags were the first photo's that had the power to completely change his perception. It reminded me of something which Dorothea Lange said, which was, “The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.” 

One can speak of Edmonds depictions of queer black masculinity in terms of their content and politics, but none of that would be transmittable if the photos themselves were’t so sensual, strikingly beautiful and full of mystery. 

John earned his MFA from Yale in 2016, and since, he has been commissioned by the New Yorker, has had work featured in Aperture and has shown with ltd. Los Angeles. He had a solo show in 2017 called Higher and another which is one right now called Tribe: Act One  at their Lower East Side space which runs till May 31.

When I went to meet John at his studio, there was just one print hanging on the white walls called Marcus with the Sacred Heart - a  . I really loved that, especially just after learning that the late Peter Hujar would do the same at his house. Only one picture of his on the wall at a time. It obliges one to pay singular attention, to look hard, even for a brief moment.

Episode 19 | Rosalind Fox Solomon

Recorded in: New York City
Episode Length: 42:36
Air Date: April 19, 2018

Produced by: Jordan Weitzman
Edited by by: Cristal Duhaime

It was an honour to meet with Rosalind Fox Solomon, just a few days shy of her 88th birthday. It’s often noted how she came to photography later than most when she was close to 40, but i couldn’t help think more about how long she’s kept it up for. How long she’s stuck with it. In her 80’s, she has has continued to make photographs, and strong ones at that. 

When we met, she served black coffee and showed me her old darkroom. The way in which she printed was always of great importance, she told me. An exhibition poster hung from a solo show at Moma in 1986, but that’s just tip of the iceberg. The breadth of her work is enormous. It’s held in over 50 museums around the world, has been the subject of 30 solo shows, and appears in 11 monographs, most recently, Got to Go with Mack. She has always photographed both at home and abroad making pictures of people suffering from AIDS during the crisis in New York to Israeli’s and Palestine’s in the West Bank just a few years ago. Vince Aletti said that he’s thought of her as an intrepid explorer, who brings back these pictures that are not necessarily easy to look, but has a lot to do with what makes them so powerful. She’s happy to disturb us.

Produced by: Jordan Weitzman
Edited by by: Cristal Duhaime

For the past little while, Atlanta based artist Erin Jane Nelson has been travelling to barrier islands, monuments and sites relating to climate change to make photographs. Her pictures, though, serve as her starting points to what become elements in her mixed media work. Its most recent incarnation is in both ceramic and tapestry, which is being shown at the Whitney this month in a group show called Between the Waters. 

Aside from her own artistic practice, Nelson is a curatorial assistant at the High Museum in Atlanta in both the Photography and Folk art departments. She recently curated an exhibition called A Fire That No Water Could Put Out, a survey of civil rights photography from the museum's collection.  She’s also the co-founder of an artist-run gallery called Species that she and her husband, artist Jason Benson, ran out of their studio in Atlanta.

Episode 13 | Teju Cole

Recorded in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, NY
Episode Length: 38:33
Air Date: July 7, 2017

Produced by: Jordan Weitzman
Edited by by: Cristal Duhaime

Teju Cole, the celebrated author known first and foremost for his writing through his novels such as Open City and Every Day is for the Thief, has dedicated much of his creative output to photography as well.

He’s been making his own photographs for over 15 years, and writing on the subject photography since 2012. His brilliant essays have appeared in the New Yorker and Aperture, and as photo critic for the New York Times magazine, he writes the monthly column On Photography. Since 2014, he's used the that space to explore issues and ideas central to the discourse around photography today.  

In this episode, Jordan Weitzman sits down with Cole at his office in Sunset Park in Brooklyn at an exciting time for him. His first solo show in the US at the Steven Kasher Gallery in New York is on till August 11 and he just launched his latest book, Blind Spot, a collection of photographs from his travels paired with a short piece of text that he wrote for each one.

Beirut, May 2016. Image and text by Teju Cole

At the National Museum of Beirut, as in any museum of archaeology, there are shards, sculptures, and plinths eroded by the centuries. Mar- ble is hard, but not invulnerable. But at this museum are also ancient mosaics with very recent damage: mosaics shattered by artillery fire during the civil war.

I am arrested by a Phoenician tribune or altar of the fourth century b.c.e. It has been carved in a purely Hellenistic style. In the lower of its two frieze registers, dancers process across the four sides in high and bas-relief. They move across the centuries to silent music. The grace of the bodies is preserved but all the faces have been knocked off.

In his speech, Nasrallah addresses and does not address Badred- dine’s death in Syria. We fill in the gaps from what is not said.

Who defaced, so meticulously, each dancer in this frieze? It is an- cient damage in this case. But it couldn’t have been the earthquake that hit Sidon in the late fourth century (an earthquake is not a precision weapon). Nor could it have been the use of the site as a limestone quarry, for quarrying requires vaster quantities of stone. More likely it was the Christians. They banned the cult of Eshmun and built in its place a church. They chipped away, with theological precision, each dancer’s face.

The collection is also what is not there. Museum of wounds. 

Tivoli, April 2015. Image and text by Teju Cole

We liked the house. We liked the terms. They would be away for a few months.

Their mother was still alive in September, living in the house, then Death took her. (Their father had died in 1986.) We moved in in January. Funny place. Knickknacks everywhere. Things askew. On the mantel- piece were two urns, containing their parents, there when we woke up, there when we went to bed. 

Lagos, December 2014. Image and text by Teju Cole

Pliny describes in the thirty-sixth book of his Natural History one of the remarkable illusionistic mosaics of antiquity: “Pavements are an inven- tion of the Greeks, who also practised the art of painting them, till they were superseded by mosaics. In this last branch of art, the highest ex- cellence has been attained by Sosus, who laid, at Pergamus, the mosaic pavement known as the ‘Asarotos œcos;’ from the fact that he there represented, in small squares of different colours, the remnants of a banquet lying upon the pavement, and other things which are usually swept away with the broom, they having all the appearance of being left there by accident.”

Episode 12 | Mark Steinmetz

Episode Length: 41:00
Air Date: May 4, 2017

Produced by: Jordan Weitzman
Edited by by: Cristal Duhaime

When I went to visit Alec Soth, he told me is that he often thinks about photography like he does about music. Sometimes you’re in the mood for soul, sometimes jazz, but everyone usually goes back most often to what they love the most. For him, our guest Mark Steinmetz is the ultimate singer / songwriter.

Many of the photographers that I’ve gone to speak with for this show have talked to me about the influence of Mark Steinmetz’ work, especially in the ways he photographs people. Look through any one of his books, from Summertime to South Central, and you’ll see why. He is the author of 12 monographs, he’s a Guggenheim fellow and his work is held in almost every major collection including the Met, Moma and The Whitney. Currently, a show of his work called South is up at Yancey Richardson in New York through May 13.

Edited by by: Cristal Duhaime

Our guest on the show today is photographer Bryson Rand. Bryson’s work engages with his experience as a gay man and speaks to a multitude of issues surrounding gay life today. Desire, shame, pleasure, violence, love, and empowerment are all made visible through his mysterious and inviting gaze. Bryson’s work not only depicts a very personal sense of male beauty, but transcends his subjects as well, creating photographs that on their own life and new meaning. 

Bryson earned his MFA from Yale University, and his work has been exhibited at the prestigious Frankel Gallery in San Francisco and Regen Projects in LA. This month, he’ll be showing an ongoing body of work called Some Small Fever in his debut solo show at La Mama Galleria in New York.

Episode 10 | Justine Kurland

Recorded in New York City, NY
Episode Length: 37:20
Air Date: March 8, 2017

Produced by: Jordan Weitzman
Edited by: Sarah Anna McMahon-Sperber
Mixed by: Cristal Duhaime

Our guest in this episode is photographer, writer and teacher Justine Kurland. This past fall, Kurland released her latest photo book, Highway Kind, a virtuosic narrative comprised of 10 years of work that she made while criss-crossing America in a green van that she had retro-fitted to include a bed, a bookcase, cupboards and hardwood floors. The through line in the book are photographs of her son Casper, whom she took on the road with her as a young boy while she meandered through the American Landscape in search of pictures.

We visited her at her beautiful small lower east side apartment in New York where she lives with her son Casper.  Painted red floors, yellow Kodak print boxes and books lining the walls, bathtub in the kitchen, a small painting by her late father, Bruce Kurland, and a little white kitten that she and Casper recently adopted fill the space with a great energy.  We did this interview around dinner time, and she asked if it was ok if she could cook a steak for her son at the same time. We thought that sounded perfect, considering Justine’s work is so much about the balancing act between the demands of being an artist and the responsibilities of taking care of her kid. She describes those feelings so poignantly in a piece that she wrote called Now We Are Six, which appears in the book Highway Kind and was featured recently in the New Yorker.

Produced by: Jordan Weitzman
Edited by: Cristal Duhaime

Ever since Alec Soth put out his first book, Sleeping by The Mississippi in 2004, he has had a prominent presence in the world of photography.  At the time, he sent copies of the book to the photographers and curators he most admired. One copy landed on the desk of the curator for the Whitney Biennial, who selected his work for the exhibition. That show sparked a meteoric rise for him in the photo and art world and since then, he has not slowed down a bit. He is the author of eight photo books including Broken Manual, Songbook and most recently, a collection of his work called Gathered Leaves. Through Little Brown Mushroom, the homegrown imprint that he founded to explore the relationship between image and text, he is also a publisher.  He teaches as well, both at the graduate level with a post at Hartford University's MFA program and through his own educational initiative, The Winnebago Workshop, a travelling school for teenagers aspiring to be artists.

In this conversation, Soth sits down with host Jordan Weitzman at Soth's studio in St-Paul, Minnesota, and tells him about a revelation that he recently had, which has changed how he's been thinking about his work and his life.

His new book, ZZYZX, published by Mack Books this fall, is comprised of a mix of portraits, landscapes and still lives made in California over the past five years, poetically strung together to create a new mysterious world of Halpern's own.

His pictures are not only beautiful and seductive, but they also resist being reduced to any one simple reading, yet express Halpern's strong, original vision.

Including his new book ZZYZX, Halpern has published three other books of his own photographs, such as Harvard Works Because We Do (Quantock Lane Press) Omaha Sketchbook (J&L Books) and A (J&L Books).
