Exhibitionistas: Notes on Contemporary Art and Life

Your art wonderment podcast.

With Joana P. R. Neves.

Exhibitionistas was born to expand the experience of art into wider spaces of conversation. It explores the sound (and visual) potential of this unique format of experimental podcasting to convey deep, fascinating experiences of art from the perspective of the artist, the curator, an you, the spectator.

Prompted by a question, each episode follows a surprising path onto an urgent topic, a unique exhibition, a fantastic book, or an artist studio. It reminds you that contemporary art and life are intertwined.

Mid-journey, "Art Etiquette" offers a short break where a new guest surprises Joana with their own question about art. Between a Socratic dialogue and a boozy chinwag.

And finally, to finish the episode with aplomb, comes "Brainstorm in a Teacup" where Joana reads notes from the week's writings, which she has described as "too interesting to miss out on, but too weird to build an episode on".

Joana P. R. Neves is an art writer and curator, co-founder and director of the art & residency space Worlding, and artistic director of Drawing Now Paris.

Created & Hosted by Dr. Joana P. R. Neves, art curator and writer with over 20 years of experience in the contemporary art field. Artistic director of Drawing Now Paris since 2018, she has worked across the industry, from the art market to education. She co-launched the art residency and project space Worlding in 2020. Exhibitionistas’ first year offered exhibition discussions with guest co-host Emily Harding; organically, it grew into a more experimental show exploring art topics, stories and interviews complemented by Joana’s publication Art Thinkosaurus on Substack. She champions ‘Art Wonderment’s’ embrace of complexity against the lure of ready-made opinions. A polyglot, she grew up in Lisbon, studied and lived in Paris, to finally settle in London with her artist husband, four children and two cats.

Okay. Hi there, and thank you so much for checking in. Does that fine? Yeah. Right. Yeah, that's I I think we could give it a go. Let's go. This is Exhibitionists, an independent podcast where we ask ourselves the question: how do we truly enjoy art? Do you want to Google it? Notice that I said we and not one or you. Could all podcasts be a bit like that, you know, to take your guests somewhere different and interesting. I am a contemporary art curator, I am an art writer, I have a 20-year career in the industry. I love the hustle, Joanna. I'm still the person next to you in an art space looking at a painting.

Oh, by the way, I'm gonna grab my pencil.

SPEAKER_01 1:03

Of course, I am the art specialist, but I'm not here to lecture you. I'm not a motivational speaker, I'm not a coach, I'm not a teacher. And my role is and has been since season one to find formats, other formats, art stories, my art tools, art travelogue, for your pleasure, but also for your inquisitive and sharp critical mind.

SPEAKER_00 1:28

You make me sound like a ghostbuster. If you need someone to help.

Who are you gonna call? A lot of formats, interviews with art insiders who are generous enough not to speak for the art bubble. How big was the paintbrush? I didn't answer. But I could have done. It has been really enjoyable to record these segments. Exhibitionistas is an array segments in relationship to things, types of episodes, people, how to connect to them. Can a piece of art be wise? The little bell that you're hearing is my cat. Browse, see, browse, choose, start from the beginning. If you want to fall asleep to an exhibitionist episode, I'm actually really not against that. I'm just worried that I'm live streaming somewhere. Why do they? I may have to restart this. I am Joanna Bion Evis. Go ahead. Click. Click on that episode. You're not gonna regret it. Yeah, we're done with this. Bye-bye, my thank you. Thank you so much. Bye-bye. Bye, thank you. My cat cannot stop walking about dingling that little bell. I am so sorry. Exhibitionists is an independent podcast created and hosted by me, Joanna Pierre Neves. We have episodes every two weeks, and this season, season three, is a bit of a turning point. We have five new episode types, from more experimental art travelogues or art stories to conversational formats about solo exhibitions with people who are not part of the industry because we're all both actors and spectators of art and life. If you're new here, you have a whole catalogue of episodes to enjoy. Discover them at your own pace and welcome to this art channel of sorts.
