Timmy Black Presents: The Lives of Contemporary Artists

Everyone is talking Technology these days and while most of the talk is utter nonsense, no one blathers quite like Timmy Black!

Timmy inadvertently reveals the real source of his motivation with this moving piece of unsubstantiated gossip.

The rage for inclusion and the noble cult of diversity has never been far from the Timmy Black agenda. In this episode we examine an under-represented artistic constituency and find a few rare gems on the way.

Timmy continues to pursue his dogged crusade for the inclusion of heretofore neglected geniuses into the canon of art history. In this episode he includes new, astounding details about the life and work of Faun Roberts.

In our most controversial pair of episodes to date, Timmy introduces, in Part One the Feminist art historian Orestia Shestov and her militant advocacy of the little known American expatriate painter Faun Roberts. If you want to score some points at your next dinner party/art opening/cocktail party/parent-teacher conference, make sure you listen to this very short revelatory vignette!!!

In a state of reckless and inebriated professional disloyalty Timmy decides to expose the art world's most closely guarded secret!

Timmy losses his way as he rhapsodizes on stale romances and erstwhile lovers. There seems to be a point to all this, though like many previous episodes, the point seems lost in the telling. We recommend that TLoCA #55 be listened to with very good headphones either in the bath or on public transportation.

Despite his obvious ethical shortcomings, Timmy reluctantly finds himself in the position of "Thought Leader." Never one to shirk a responsibility, our formally carefree podcaster exercises his newfound authority with both good cheer and good advice.

Timmy talks about the important and controversial performance diva, Kella Shiv and her profound influence upon the southern California art scene. Her generous attitude toward her younger contemporaries has made her into a pivotal and essential liaison between emerging artists and the gallerist and collector communities. (Kids: If you're trying to get your work "out there," introduce yourselves to Kella!!)

Nobody claimed the artist life was an easy path. Some succumb to the pressures. Others adapt with compromises. and then there are the legends! In this episode Timmy tells the tale of creative triumph in the face of unforeseen catastrophe.
