Arts
In the first of a three-part series on art writing, we are joined by Roseline Olang' and Jonathan Solanke Gathaara Fraser, two artists, writers, and friends of the podcast for a conversation about our relationship to different forms of writing about contemporary art. We discuss what we think works with art writing, the places where we encounter art writing, and various pieces of writing that we have made an impression on us. We also talk about our experience of art writing, and our intentions with the writing that we do. This episode is the first in a three-part Corpus series following a 2019 art writing workshop held in Nairobi and Kampala, and is included alongside other text and video materials in a Writing Toolkit developed out of the workshop. This workshop was a partnership by 32º East, Nairobi Contemporary, Art Monthly, the British Institute in Eastern Africa, the British Council and Newcastle University.
