Hello Beautiful!

Kathe Telingator hosts this week and sits down with Kerry-James Marshall. He's an African-American artist who has called his work “unapologetically black.” He works in multiple mediums, including paint and sculpture, and explores topics such as black popular culture and the Civil Rights Movement with a style that combines both realistic and creative interpretations of history.


Act 1: Mark DiSuvero

Kathe Telingator asks artist Kerry-James Marshall about two of his recent paintings on display, one at the National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C. and the other right here in Chicago at the Hyde Park Art Center.
Act 2; Summer Dance

Kerry-James Marshall on the idea of being “post-black,” and why through the study of art history, the importance of African-American artists simply can't be ignored. Plus, contributor Lucia Mauro takes us out to the 11th season of Chicago's SummerDance Festival.
Act 3: Blood Drawn

Tim Carnahan introduces us to an artist who literally puts a bit of herself into every piece she creates. And Kerry-James Marshall talks about his creative process and why a piece of work, even if it's been hung in a museum, may never be finished.
