Exhibitionistas - Notes on Contemporary Art & Life
Your Art Wonderment Podcast – Created and hosted by contemporary art curator and writer Joana P. R. Neves
Your art wonderment podcast.
With contemporary art curator and writer Joana P. R. Neves.
Exhibitionistas was born to expand the experience of art into wider spaces of conversation. It's the meta-cigarette after the art-sex. Prompted by a question, each episode follows a surprising path onto a topic, an exhibition, a book, or an artist studio, through the scope of contemporary art. Mid-journey, "Art Etiquette" offers a short break where a new guest surprises Joana with their own question about art. Between a Socratic dialogue and a boozy chinwag. And finally, to finish the episode with aplomb, comes "Brainstorm in a Teacup" where Joana reads notes from the week's writings, which she has described as "too interesting to miss out on, but too weird to build an episode on".
Joana P. R. Neves is an art writer and curator, co-founder and director of the art & residency space Worlding, and artistic director of Drawing Now Paris.

Summer is the season of creativity, hypersensitivity, love, poetry, art. But is this a capitalist illusion? Or are we preparing for the change about to come, where our pleasure will be elsewhere and dangers come from what sued to be and is no more? Did you enjoy the episode?

Can Men Be (Good) Artists? | Art & Literature edition | Reading Cusk's Parade
Writer Rachel Cusk asked: "Can a Woman who is an Artist Ever Just Be an Artist?" (NYT). Our host, contemporary art writer and curator Joana P. R. Neves, turns this question of gender and skill on its head: can men be (good) artists? Cusk's book "Parade" (2024) is this Art & Literature special episode's book of choice. Joana embarks on an art and feminism quest: is gender a prison? Or is it the forceful power of the patriarchy? She is helped by living and fictional contemporary artists and writers, intersectional feminism, and philoso...
Benjamin Did NOT mourn the loss of the "Aura".
What if we failed to see what Benjamin alerts us to in his seminal art book "The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction"? What if mass reproduction of images brought an art liberation? What if preserving the here and now of the aesthetic experience was a form of gatekeeping? And how can we read the concept of aura today?
