On this episode I'm joined by Katherina Olschbaur. I first met Kat in LA when we were deeper into the pandemic and still reeling from life in lock down. We were both following each other on Instagram at the time but had never met in person. I was immediately stuck by Kat’s energetic presence and her interesting ideas about the world.
Originally from Austria, Kat currently lives and works in LA. Her captivating surrealist paintings draw viewers in with rich luscious colors in striking combinations. Her drawings are an integral part of her painting practice deeply informed by her subjects and conceptual frameworks. Katherina was an artist in residence at Kehinde Wiley’s Black Rock residency in Senegal, West Africa in 2021.
It’s a couple of weeks before her first solo show with Perrotin Gallery in Hong Kong when we sit down at Soho House in New York to talk about her work and practice.
