Alexi Worth

Описание

In this episode, host David Humphrey talks to New York painter and writer Alexi Worth. Departing from the usual format of bringing music, Alexi introduces a unique twist by sharing poems spoken by their original authors, some recorded on old cassettes dating back over 25 years. As the conversation unfolds, David and Alexi discuss the intricate narratives of Alexi's paintings, drawing parallels between the compressed storytelling in his art and the essence of poetry. They explore themes of intimacy, resistance, and the complexity of artistic expression. From William Carlos Williams to Robert Lowell, James Dickey to John Berryman, and Richard Wilbur, each poem offers a glimpse into the profound and diverse landscape of human experience. Alexi Worth (b. 1964) is a painter, curator, art critic, and writer who is known for his conceptually rich and visually graphic works that address modern life and artmaking.
