Brandon Zech and Christina Rees discuss the effect of the novel coronavirus on Texas-based galleries, museums, and artists. 

"I’m most afraid for mid-tier galleries and nonprofits."

Christina Rees talks with Michael Auping, the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth's Chief Curator from 1993 to 2017, about the Modern's presentation of his current exhibition 'Mark Bradford: End Papers.'

"I was feeling like abstraction had really dried up, that it had really come to the end of the line. And then I found Mark Bradford. And I thought, ‘Ah ha, here’s another rabbit hole that we can really go down.’"

In this podcast, Glasstire's Christopher Blay and William Sarradet interview attendees at the Dallas Museum of Art's exhibition 'Speechless: Different by Design' during a recent DMA Late Night opening.

"It's interesting to be in a museum space and have all of the exhibitions have to do with touch. It's an interesting feeling, almost like you’re doing something you shouldn’t be doing."

Brandon Zech and Christopher Blay discuss whether artists make good critics, why blue-chip artists won't write criticism, and the difficulties of text art.

"You don’t see Jeff Koons writing a review about an exhibition for Artforum."

Christina Rees talks to Terri Thornton, Curator of Education at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, in celebration of the 25th anniversary of her long-running, acclaimed guest lecture series Tuesday Evenings at The Modern.

"I have a real fondness for the brains of artists. People laugh about artists not being good communicators and I just think that’s a load of crap."

Christina Rees and Neil Fauerso on their most bonkers movie-going experiences, and why you should still see movies on the big screen.

"The best films of cinema are better than any TV show that’s ever been made… and that really comes through when you see the films in a movie theater."

Christopher Blay, Christina Rees, and guests Heyd Fontenot and Dean Daderko discuss the ins and outs of a successful artist residency.

"I want a residency to change my perspective — you want to make something new and to be affected by the space, the place, and the people."

Brandon Zech and Christina Rees discuss what to expect from art in Texas over the next ten years.

"I see smaller, more splintered audiences that are more passionate. And then I see this whole other art world that really is about theme-park entertainment."

Brandon Zech and Christina Rees discuss their favorite Texas art exhibitions from the past decade.

“I was really shaken by this show. Even talking about it is taking me back to that place.”

Brandon Zech and Christina Rees discuss all of the ways you can gift art in the holiday season.

"I try not to be too much of a bully about giving art away as a Christmas gift. I certainly don’t want my friends and family to be like ‘oh my god, here we go with the art again.'"
