  • Content Creation in the Arts with Lucy Donovan

    Episode 58 of ‘All About Art’: Content Creation in the Arts with Lucy Donovan

    In this episode, I sat down with Lucy Donovan, content creator and the founder of Girl & Gallery. Lucy has nearly half a million followers across various platforms posting about art in an accessible, relatable way. Girl&Gallery is a destination where art lovers can embark on a journey of discovering new artists, interesting exhibitions, and inspiring works of art. Lucy aims to create a space where individuals with a shared appreciation for art can come together. 

    Listen on to hear me ask Lucy about Girl&Gallery and how she started creating content for the arts. We talk about what it feels like to have over 416,000 followers and the pressures that may bring with it, and she gives valuable advice to those aspiring to be full-time content creators and for artists who want to reach more people with their work on social media. 


    Thank you Lucy for coming on the podcast!

  • New Kids On The Block - Interviews with 5 Emerging Gallerists in London (Hew Hood, Helen Neven, Maribelle Bierens, Cedric Bardawil, & Jack Trodd)
    Jan 30 2024
    Episode 57 of ‘All About Art’: New Kids On The Block - Interviews with 5 Emerging Gallerists in London (Hew Hood, Helen Neven, Maribelle Bierens, Cedric Bardawil, & Jack Trodd) In the past two years in London (2022 and 2023) we have seen a massive surge in small galleries opening across the city. Instead of interviewing one emerging gallerist about why they chose now to take the plunge and open their gallery, I had the opportunity to speak to 5 new gallerists in London. I ask each gallerist 4 questions: Introduce themselves and say more about their gallery.What inspired them to open a gallery in London.What type of art the gallery strives to champion and how they have positioned themselves in the growing gallery landscape in the city.What is one thing they wish they could tell their younger selves when entering the sector as a gallerist.  I start off at [05:22] in North London to see Hew Hood at Hew Hood Gallery in Islington At [17:35] I then went East to see Helen Neven at Neven Gallery in Bethnal Green At [28:08] back down to Fitzovia is where I visited Maribelle Bierens at Night Cafe Gallery At [38:20] to Soho to see Cedric Bardawil at his eponymous gallery up on the first floor of a building on Old Compton Street At [48:46] I sat down with Jack Trodd who runs BWG Gallery, a nomadic gallery that had a home on 13 Soho Square right off of Oxford Street in 2023 but has conducted exhibitions all around London, north, south, east, and west, and will continue to do so in 2024. You can find more information about each gallery here:  HEW HOOD GALLERY https://www.hewhood.gallery/NEVEN GALLERY https://www.nevengallery.com/NIGHT CAFÉ GALLERY https://www.nightcafe.gallery/CEDRIC BARWADIL https://cedricbardawil.com/BWG GALLERY https://www.brusheswithgreatness.co.uk/ Sources: https://www.london.gov.uk/programmes-strategies/arts-and-culturehttps://www.thelondoneconomic.com/lifestyle/my-business/analysis-of-the-london-art-market-363507/https://www.artnews.com/art-news/news/london-art-market-frieze-paris-top-city-europe-1234681783/ YOU CAN SUPPORT ALL ABOUT ART ON PATREON HERE: https://www.patreon.com/allaboutart FOLLOW ALL ABOUT ART ON INSTAGRAM HERE: https://www.instagram.com/allaboutartpodcast/  ABOUT THE HOST: I am an Austrian-American art historian, curator, and writer.

  • The Experience of Sitting for a Portrait - In the Studio with Beau Gabriel
    Dec 21 2023

    Episode 56 of ‘All About Art’: The Experience of Sitting for a Portrait - In the Studio with Beau Gabriel


    This episode is a bit different because All About Art is a podcast all about demystifying the professional arts sector by speaking to amazing people in different roles in the arts - But I also love to do episodes that touch on various themes within the industry, and this time it’s more unconventional.


    I recently went to visit Beau Gabriel, a London-based artist, in his studio to sit for a painting. This was my first time sitting for a painting and it was really fun to experience this while also taking my mics with me to record it for you listening in.


    If you get bothered by background noise, I suggest you skip forward a tad because in the first 10 minutes, you can hear Beau prime his canvas and paint brushes while he me how to pose.


    In a casual interview format, listen in to hear us talk about underpainting and pigments, what it feels like being a sitter, and so much more.


    To set the scene a little bit while you listen, we were standing in Beau’s studio in East London with the natural light of a very cold Sunday in November. Beau had his easel set up and a monochrome pallet of oil paint to create the underpainting of my portrait. I was standing across from him with a chair in front of me on the back of which I was resting my hand, and I had a little space heater facing me to keep me warm because of what felt like freezing temperatures, quite typical for artist studios in London in the winter. 


    This painting will take a few more sessions to complete, so be sure to follow All About Art and Beau on Instagram to see it when it's finished. (linked below!)
