Panel Borders: David B’s Black Paths

Concluding our month of shows on war comics and our four years of broadcasts on Thursday evenings, Alex Fitch talks to French graphic novelist David B about his new book Black Paths, which depicts a little known footnote to the First World War, as the defeated Austro-Hungarian Empire loses control of the city port of Fiume in Italy and we meet various eccentric characters trapped within the city walls. Alex and David also talk about the latter’s Ignatz Award winning comic book Epileptic and his work with the independent publishing company L’Association.

Art Monthly- September 9th, 2011

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Peter Suchin discusses Outrageous Fortune: Artists Remake the Tarot at Focal Point Gallery, Southend-on-Sea and then continues with John Douglas Millar to discuss John’s feature Art/Writing on why experimental writing thrives in the art world. There has been an upsurge in experimental writing, but why has it found its home in the art world rather than the literary industry? Is there a fundamental difference in how writers find audiences within these fields?

‘While academic and creative disciplines cross pollinate in the art world, they seem increasingly estranged in the literary world. The result is that the influence of experimental and avant-garde fiction waxes in the world of art while it wanes in the world of publishing.’

The programme is hosted by Matt Hale who has worked at Art Monthly since 1991.

Future Past

Christopher Townsend on a very British modernism

Wakefield’s new Barbara Hepworth museum gives visitors a slice of mid-century British modernism, but how can we comprehend this historical period when it is refracted – via contemporary culture – through late capitalism’s self mythologising?

 

‘The era of mid-century modernism and modernity is lost to us now, its Utopias are as unattainable as the archaic ages of Knossos and Troy, and presented to us in fragments gathered from the archaeological excavation of what was to come rather than the digging up of what really happened.’

The programme is hosted by Matt Hale who has worked at Art Monthly since 1991.

OST 17.09.2011 – John Flannery

This weekly programme is dedicated to film music, TV music, library music and related recordings, and is hosted by Jonny Trunk. Today on the OST Show he’s joined by John Flannery, member of the test card circle. We’ve been waiting an age to get one of the test card enthusiasts on the show, and were thrilled to have John join us. Expect two hours of classic TV interludes and more besides.

We’d also like to apologise for the extreme slackness of uploading fresh OST podcasts in the last month or two. This is because it’s normally left to Robin The Fog to sort it out, and frankly of late he hasn’t been cutting the mustard. However, with a quiet word and a punch in the chops, normal service looks set to be resumed. Look out for veritable cavalcade of new and old OST podcasts coming very soon! We faithfully promise…
