    Kunst Speak With Brask - Banks Violette

    Welcome to Kunst Speak with Brask. In this podcast, we explore the world of art through the eyes of passionate art enthusiasts based in Los Angeles and New York. Together with art collector, publisher, and curator Jens-Peter Brask, we uncover inspiring perspectives, captivating stories, and memorable anecdotes from the art world. Our mission is to spark curiosity and encourage more people to connect with and appreciate art in all its forms. Join us as we embark on this creative journey together.

    In this episode, we speak with Banks Violette, an American visual artist based in Ithaca, New York.
    Banks is best known for his large-scale, monochromatic sculptures and installations, often made from industrial materials. His work has always had a strong physical presence, but beneath the polished and refined surfaces, there is often something darker and more unsettling. His practice draws on real-life events, music, metal and punk subcultures, as well as themes of destruction, mortality, and tragedy.
    During the 2000s, Banks was based in Brooklyn and became one of the most talked-about artists of his generation. His work was shown extensively, and he was part of a very active period in the New York art scene. But around 2012, he returned to Ithaca, where he grew up, and gradually stepped away from exhibiting new work.For almost ten years, Banks didn't show new work publicly. He essentially disappeared from the art world and chose to work privately, away from the pressure and expectations that come with exhibiting. It’s a decision that raises a lot of questions, especially considering how active and successful his career had been before that.
    It has also been about ten years since I last saw Banks. So in this conversation, we talk about what happened during those years, what led him to step away from exhibiting, and what it meant for him to leave the art world behind for a while.
    We also talk about how he creates his sculptures - from the initial idea and the choice of materials to the highly complex processes involved in bringing them into existence. Banks has a very particular way of working, and we go into the details of his process, his relationship with materials, and the craftsmanship behind the work.
    But the conversation is also about much more than the objects themselves. We talk about making art, the pressure of being an artist, success, expectations, and what happens when you decide to step away from all of it. We talk about what it means to continue making work when there is no immediate need to show it, and how taking a long break from exhibiting can change the way you think about your own practice.
    After ten years, it was interesting to sit down with Banks again and hear what has changed, what has stayed the same, and where he is now in his life and his work.

    Welcome to Kunst Speak with Brask. In this podcast, we explore the world of art through the eyes of passionate art enthusiasts based in Los Angeles and New York. Together with art collector, publisher, and curator Jens-Peter Brask, we uncover inspiring perspectives, captivating stories, and memorable anecdotes from the art world. Our mission is to spark curiosity and encourage more people to connect with and appreciate art in all its forms. Join us as we embark on this creative journey together.

    In this episode, we talk to Josh Smith, an American artist based between New York and Tennessee.Originally trained as a printmaker, Josh began working with collage in the early 2000s. Combining photocopies, documents, and drawings in layered compositions, he developed abstract images that draw on surrealist and expressionist approaches to painting.
    Josh first gained recognition in the early 2000s for a body of work consisting of paintings featuring the letters of his own name. Using these letters as a starting point, he transformed them into the foundation for abstract imagery.
    In recent years, Josh has produced numerous semi-figurative series exploring a wide range of subjects, including palm trees, skeletons, fish, and devils. One of his most recognisable motifs is the Grim Reaper, a figure that has appeared repeatedly throughout his work. The motif first became a major focus in 2017, when he presented a series of 11 Grim Reaper paintings in his solo exhibition at STANDARD (OSLO). The figure has since become closely associated with his visual language, reflecting his fascination with mortality, symbolism, and the tension between the playful and the darker sides of life.
    Josh works across many different mediums. He also creates artist books, sculptures, ceramics, and collages, often allowing ideas and images to move freely between different forms.
    What makes his practice particularly engaging is this constant movement between the personal and the universal, the abstract and the figurative, and the serious and the playful. His work seems to embrace the idea that a painting can be both immediate and mysterious - something that can be looked at, experienced, and interpreted without necessarily having to explain itself.
    In this episode, we talk with Josh about his artistic journey, his relationship with painting and other mediums, and the ideas, images, and impulses that continue to shape his work.

    Welcome to Kunst Speak with Brask. In this podcast, we explore the world of art through the eyes of passionate art enthusiasts based in Los Angeles and New York. Together with art collector, publisher, and curator Jens-Peter Brask, we uncover inspiring perspectives, captivating stories, and memorable anecdotes from the art world. Our mission is to spark curiosity and encourage more people to connect with and appreciate art in all its forms. Join us as we embark on this creative journey together.

    In this episode, we visit artist Eddie Martinez. But today, we’re not talking about Eddie’s art. Instead, we’re talking about one of our shared great loves - Michael Mann’s 1995 masterpiece, the movie Heat.
    Spoiler alert: we talk about everything involving this film. So if you haven’t seen Heat yet, you might want to watch it before listening.
    Heat is an epic crime film starring Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Val Kilmer, Jon Voight, and an incredible ensemble cast. At the centre of the film are two men on opposite sides of the law: LAPD detective Vincent Hanna (Pacino) and professional thief Neil McCauley (De Niro). As Hanna closes in on McCauley and his crew, their professional lives begin to collide with their personal ones, creating one of the most intense and beautifully constructed cat-and-mouse stories ever put on screen.
    For us, Heat is much more than a crime movie. It’s a film about obsession, loneliness, professionalism, loyalty, and the choices we make in order to live the lives we want. It’s also a film that has had an enormous influence on cinema, inspiring countless filmmakers, actors, and movies that came after it.
    In this episode, we talk about some of the films that have been directly inspired by Heat, as well as the influence the movie has had on the crime genre as a whole. We share some of our favourite quotes, talk about the characters and performances we love, and revisit some of the scenes that have stayed with us over the years.
    And, of course, we discuss what makes Heat so endlessly rewatchable - from the iconic downtown Los Angeles shootout and the legendary diner conversation between Pacino and De Niro, to the atmosphere, the music, the cinematography, and all those small details that make the film feel so real.
    A conversation about one of our all-time favourite films, why we keep coming back to it, and why, more than 30 years later, Heat still feels like a masterpiece.
