For our second episode, we hosted an open discussion with Nashville artists Jaime Raybin, R.D. King and Marlos E’van. Last September Raybin and King were detained by TSA at LaGuardia airport when they were returning from the Independent Art Book Fair with copies of E’van’s book Skull Microwave. The book contained visuals from Evan’s art practice that depicts subjects of police brutality, gun violence and criticism of capitalism.

We will discuss their experience, the practice of artist book production and dissemination, as well as the recent buyout of Watkins College of Art in Nashville and how all of it relates to the recent uprising across the country.
