This episode is about authorship and the reception of art. Is art about the artist? What happens when an artwork is finished? Does the artist take responsibility for how it is received? Does it matter if art is used for a different purpose? Who is really the artist? In this episode, we hear fellow podcaster Yael discuss her research on the death of the author - a concept originally attributed to the arts of writing - but, nonetheless, as relevant in the context of visual arts. We also invited Dutch artist Mark IJzerman for a talk on what happens in the process of art making, and dealing with the complicated authorship of art.Guests in this episode: Erik Kamaletdinov, Xaver Könneker, Shantychoir Barend Fox and Mark Ijzerman.
