This episode’s work of art was Claire’s pick, by her perhaps all-time favorite artist, Sandy Skoglund, called "Fox Games" (1989). Skoglund is an American born installation artist and photographer, currently teaching at Rutgers University while actively creating and exhibiting around the world.
Her Installation Art delights lovers of Pop Art and Surrealism with colorful and clever commentary. Creatures and treats invade the mundane worlds as if a brightly colored plague has infected the space. We are left wondering if this abundance is a delight, or a threat! One thing the viewer knows for sure: you simply can't look away.
Some favorite Installations discussed in the podcast include "Radiactive Cats," 1980, "Fox Games," 1989, "The Wild Inside" (1989), and "Cocktail Party," 1992.
