Heavy Things Lightly

Arthur Kwon Lee - Towards a Transcendent Art


Listen Later

John sits down with the very talented Arthur Kwon Lee to talk about beauty, art, and culture.

About Arthur (from his website): Arthur Kwon Lee is an American painter whose gestural mark making harmonizes expressive color palettes with world mythologies and religious icons. His work has won awards from George Washington University, the Korean Artists Association, the Corcoran Gallery of Art and most recently the inaugural title of 'Artist of the Year' by the Eileen Kaminsky Family Foundation. Lee draws inspiration from a broad range of sources including the Jungian archetypes, Christianity, and his lifelong commitment to martial arts.

"Why Are We Talking About Rabbits?" takes you beyond rhetorical "rabbits" and the shallow approach that the media and most thinkers today take to examine contemporary cultural phenomena. Using theology, history, philosophy and years of travel in Mali, the Republic of Georgia, Haiti, and beyond, John Heers offers a refreshing take to how we got to where we are now. WAWTAR is all about talking about those heavy things… lightly.
