S1 E3 Nina Felshin: Permeable Worlds

Patricia Silva talks with Nina Felshin, an American independent writer, curator, and activist. Nina’s work consistently addresses political urgency, lived experience, and imagination. In September of 2016 we visited an exhibition on the Bowery which sparked a topic that we had to continue later. That conversation is today’s encounter. Nina talks about the publication of her first book, But Is it Art? The Spirit of Art as Activism, and we discuss two photographic projects that were relevant at the time of our conversation: Omar Imam’s photographs of Syrian refugees as published in the New York Times, and Phil Collin’s How to Make a Refugee video at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
