April 19, 2024 - Week in Review: the Biennale, Faith Ringgold, and Billy Joel

50:10 |

About The Episode

Coming up: Our arts and culture week in review.

First up, the Venice Biennale — Artist Jeffrey Gibson, with his riot of color, is the first ever Indigenous artist selected to represent the United States;  At the Israeli pavilion, artist Ruth Patir, won’t open her show until “a cease-fire and hostage release agreement is reached;  And the German Pavilion, which has been described as creepy and enchanting is a hit for its freak out factor.

Then we remember groundbreaking artist Faith Ringgold who stitched together stories of Black life.

From there, it’s a Coachella catch-all,  as the music festival enters another weekend. AND Piano Man Billy Joel tries to sing us a song but his CBS concert special went off the air for The Longest Time. 

That and more (yes, Taylor too) is next on The Culture Show.
