The podcast Perpetual Blue maps Oscar Murillo’s practice and its connections to Claude Monet, as his abstract paintings share the walls with Monet's water lilies, grainstacks, and Houses of Parliament at DAS MINSK and Museum Barberini in Potsdam. Writer and editor Kate Brown traces the links across conversations with Murillo, DAS MINSK director and exhibition co-curator Anna Schneider, Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW) director Bonaventure Soh Bejeng Ndikung, and art historian Evie Hatch, asking what paintings, pigments, and marks carry with them — and what it means to make an institution porous.
Recorded on the occasion of the symposium »Blue - A Conversation on Collective Osmosis« as part of the exhibition »Oscar Murillo. Collective Osmosis«, 14.3.2026–9.8.2026, DAS MINSK Kunsthaus in Potsdam, including works by Claude Monet from the Hasso Plattner Collection
