Ron Arad: Harmful Myths, Gatekeeping, and Multidisciplinary Art #2

The Stuart Semple Show

Episode 2 of The Stuart Semple Show invites experimental, multidisciplinary architectural designer Ron Arad to discuss his viewpoints on working with fabricators, the worrying inclination towards gatekeeping, and finding your voice in the art community.

Never one to stray from difficult subjects, Stuart Semple dives straight in and discusses the perception of Ron Arad’s work. Who decides what art is? Is a crushed chair really art? What does it mean when someone says, ‘I could’ve done that myself’?

Stuart Semple champions art for all. This episode details how art helps ‘people invent themselves’ and how art is born from rebellion.

This episode covers:

• Working with fabricators
• Repurposing mundane objects
• Using 3D printers
• Gatekeeping in the art community
• Multidisciplinary viewpoints
