Camille Friend: Black hair in white marble
Meet Me at the Chazen
Oscar-nominated hair stylist Camille Friend educated the artisans at Quarra Stone on the nuances of Black hair as they finished Sanford Biggers's sculpture, Lifting the Veil, which features Frederick Douglass and his iconic mane. Host Gianofer Fields was there to capture the sights and sounds.
Meet Me at the Chazen is a podcast about the the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Chazen Museum of Art, the largest collecting museum in the Big Ten. As we report what’s happening here, we'll also explore what it means to be an art museum at a public university and how art museums can help enrich and strengthen the communities they serve. Meet Me at the Chazen theme and incidental music is “Swinging at the Pluto Lounge,” composed and performed by Marvin Tate and friends, and is used with permission of the artists.
