ART FICTIONS is a monthly podcast created by artist and writer Jillian Knipe. Much like a magazine, hosting is shared between a range of contemporary art practitioners including art critics, curators and creative writers. For each episode, a guest artist discusses their work through the lens of a piece of fiction of their choosing. We explore the book’s themes, context and characters as well as the author’s background, which opens up and steers a rich conversation about the artist’s work. The podcast bounces back and forth between artworks and text, often meandering around film, television, exhibitions and other inspiring artists.
