Bronwen Tate writes poems about sex after miscarriage, among other things. She is brilliant, she is my friend. Recorded from my bed in 2022, I don’t entirely remember what we talked about…definitely writing, higher education, friendship, and Barbara Johnson.

Filmmaker Leslie Tai’s How To Have an American Baby is streaming on PBS through March 10, 2024. The POV documentary is an intimate look at the shadow economy that caters to Chinese parents who travel to the US to give birth for citizenship. We discuss the film, the commodification of American motherhood, the tragedies of infant morbidity, and what birth sounds like (in any language). Trigger warning: this episode includes discussion of death and medical malpractice. Never miss an episode of The Amy Beecher Show. Subscribe to our newsletter or follow us on Instagram and Facebook.

NYC Crit Club is a misleading name for the collaborative learning program that Catherine Haggarty and Hilary Doyle founded five years ago. A) You can take classes with them from anywhere in the world B) it's super inclusive (affordable!)- less a club, more a gathering. I'm teaching there in the spring and Mira Fucking Schor is teaching there in the fall..two icons! Listen on for more info. Enrollment opens August 15th. NYC Crit Club Fall 2022 Courses PS: We don't usually do #ads because that would break from this pod's brand of time consuming and unprofitable that Amy has built over so many years. But NYC Crit Club is great, worth the exception. #intentional #plug.

At the beginning of the pandemic artist, critic, and co-editor of Precog magazine Gaby Collins-Fernandez gave a lecture to an empty room at The School of Visual Arts in New York City. It was about The Baroque and it was brilliant. That lecture, Georgia O’Keefe, Washington Heights, and more.

If I could listen to a podcast and sing The Wheels On the Bus at the same time, I would listen to this week’s re-release of my conversation with Jackie Cedar, painter and founder of Good Work Gallery. I recorded it with her during the pandemic, before Ben…the cognitive equivalent of a scene you vaguely remember from a movie you once saw….

Happy holiday week. My gift to you: three things you can do to feel less “meh” about your holiday break.
Show Notes
1) Donate to the Institute of American Indian Arts, a college and research center in Santa Fe devoted to supporting indigenous American arts. One of my former students goes there.
2) Attend the last performance of my exhibition at Pari Passu view live stream or in-person.
3) Listen to this re-release. It’s with Cassandra Jenkins! She’s on tour right now, killing it. Somebody at a party once told me this was their favorite episode. Or was it that it was the only one they listened to? Not sure. Go for it.

I think it was early 2019 that I went to see Tracy Molis’ last show at Kai Matsumiya. There were two types of paintings on view: paintings of artifacts inspired by an archaeological drawing class she was teaching at Columbia, and then paintings of stills from a Rage Against The Machine music video… a different type of artifact. In some ways, this re-released podcast in honor of her next show at the gallery feels like a dusty dug up artifact, a remnant from the “before times.” Enjoy this time capsule! It’s one of our most downloaded episodes.

Let’s celebrate Colleen Asper! I curated Performing Pictures Workshop at Pari Passu Gallery with Colleen’s work as a conceptual and physical anchor. On Sunday 31 October she debuted Echo, a collaboration with artist Julie Harting, and performances will continue every Sunday through the end of November 2021. (Tickets are available here). Here is a talk I did with her in the Old Era. Brace yourself. She’s brilliant.

Today’s re-release: this one’s exciting because it corresponds with some content that you can stream from the comfort of your own home: Aoife Spillane Hink’s film opera A Thing I Cannot Name is streaming online today for World Opera Day. Irish-American director, writer, and actor Aoife-Spillane Hinks is a longtime friend of mine. We used to joke that we were long lost sisters (similar curly hair although hers was more impressive) and even though we rarely get to connect you can tell in this episode that there’s so much love there. I am quite jealous of Aoife’s acquired Irish-American lilt, yet another reason to listen and enjoy.

Today’s re-release: a talk with the brilliant Ilana Harris-Babou, whose exhibition Wholesome Fun runs at Kunsthaus Hamburg through November 28th AND whose survey is at University of Chattanooga’s ICA through Nov 5th. It’s no secret I’m a huge Ilana-Harris Babou fan. We share interests: unraveling the commodification of cart, playing with slime and glop, appropriating advertising verbiage..the list goes on.. Check out her shows, listen to the ep!

Amy’s collaboration with Jennifer Khoshbin (her sister!) and Wildcat Ebony Brown is called The Sun Seekers- an ongoing series of performances at LMCC as part of their Take Care series. Are you taking care, my fellow sun seekers, fun seekers? Drink your water. Get sleep. Wash your hands. Read a poem. Listen to a podcast. (hint hint).

This week we’re re-releasing Caitlin MacBride’s episode on the occasion of her show at Heroes Gallery. The venue pairs emerging artists with established, historically significant artists that have played a role in their development. Very cool. It’s up through October 30, 2021. Also, Caitlin’s getting married on Saturday, and that’s a fun thing to celebrate. Caitlin MacBride, everybody! Three cheers to her and her tight, smart, beautiful paintings.

Dona McAdams has been making photographs for over forty years. We talk about where art has taken her: the stages of Performance Space in the 80’s and 90’s, Coney Island assisted living facilities, homeless shelters, small mountain communities in Appalachia, dairy farms in New England, and on the backstretch of thoroughbred racetracks. Dona’s reverence for her subjects and appetite for collaboration is remarkable. And she’s a goat farmer! All that and more.

Wayfarers was an artist-run gallery and studio space open from 2011 until 2020. I sit down with founder George Ferrandi and former member artist Cynthia Reynolds to talk about its legacy and the fate of scrappy spaces like itself in post-pandemic cities.
