James Cullinane is an artist with a B.F.A. from Cooper Union . Everyone I worked with at 1071 fifth ave was an artist of some kind most of us trying to pay the bills and make our own work in the big city. A lot of friends were made as we labored to install the latest show at the Gugg. I thought of them as coworkers at the time. Looking back now I consider most of them friends. James was part of a core group that was my introduction to the Guggenheim and I would work with him in some way whenever...

I met Keith Losh through my first museum job. He came in on occasion to help out at the Ringling Museum, while I was there. Recently I learned that the position I was fortunate enough to fill is the one that he had left after five years. Keith was, a guide, a supporter and a fellow artist on the scene during my years in Sarasota, I never thought about it much at the time. I was too self centered. I know him from his artist/art handler days. Though he made an interesting 25 year career change int...

Did I say I’m an artist? Well sometimes as an artist one must find work to help “supplement” ones income. For me that has been art handling and museum exhibition work. Some people don’t even know this kind of work exists. However, now that museums and galleries are closed for the foreseeable future and as I’m a little too young for retirement, my focus has been renewed into networking. Hence this podcast. Once I began calling up old friends from the field it occurred to me to reach out to a know...

I was fortunate to not only have worked with Joe and the art handlers, but also work with the builders and the painters under Rich. These were high stress, labor intensive giggs, but most of the time they were fun. All my coworkers were artist or creatives of some kind. I use to call him Coach, because I am a smart ass, but only after this talk did I learn he played football in high school and might have continued if not for a life changing event. Checking in with Rich after all these years was ...

Have you ever heard of a film called Don’s Plum? Neither had I until I met a man named Dale Wheatley. Dale made a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire that is banned in the US and Canada. The other day I had a couple beers with him. I got a peek into his world of film making, writing and producing. He also had a major role in a local hit filmed mostly here in Athens GA called Small Group. http://freedonsplum.com/ https://smallgroupmovie.com/ https://www.patreon.com/limitedperspectiv...
