New York, NY, November 27, 2018 – Untitled Art, Miami Beach is pleased to announce the live programming for Untitled Art, Podcast at the seventh edition in 2018. Presented in conjunction with the Untitled Art fairs in Miami Beach and San Francisco the podcast explores all things related to sound in contemporary art and is organized and hosted by Amanda Schmitt, Untitled Art’s Director of Programming.
The program will be broadcast live from the fair for the fourth year in partnership with Miami-based Wynwood Radio. All programming will be available to listen to on- site or via a web stream on wynwoodradio.com.
Formerly known as Untitled, Radio the live programming is a platform that takes the place of the customary fair program of talks, interviews and roundtable discussions, and brings together artists, curators and institutions from all around the world. The programming for the seventh edition includes a number of compelling discussions and conversations, highlights of the fair’s international exhibitors and a dynamic selection of sound works and performances.
“In October 2018, we were excited to launch the brand new Untitled Art, Podcast, which is currently available wherever you prefer to access your favorite podcasts. The first episodes of the podcasts revisit the programs that we've presented over four years at the fairs in Miami Beach and San Francisco. All of the programming presented and recorded at the seventh edition of the fair will be considered for future distribution within the Podcasts' Episodes," announces Schmitt.
Conversations and Talks
Live programming of Untitled Art, Podcast will feature a series of engaging discussions on timely topics with notable figures. On the occasion of Aaron Curry’s solo exhibition at The Bass, Tune Yer Head, the artist will speak with curator Leilani Lynch about the diversity of his practice in terms of materiality and form, highlighting the interplay between painting, sculpture and collage.

Several exhibitors participating in the seventh edition of Untitled Art, Miami Beach are contributing to the live programming.

Presented by De Buck Gallery (New York) artist Devan Shimoyama and Jessica Beck from The Andy Warhol Museum, will discuss the artist's work and issues of race, sexuality, intimacy, the performance of masculinity and a larger connection to Warhol's paintings of drag queens.
Artists Monika Bravo and Jessica Mitrani will discuss how the reading of an astrological chart is an action where the abstract language of the archetypes materializes in an intimate connection establishing emotional parameters by revealing the codes of the unconscious. This discussion is presented by Untitled Art, Miami Beach exhibitor Ginsberg (Lima).
Sound and Music
Untitled Art, Podcast is proud to feature a variety of sonic artworks, providing a platform for works that are often challenging to incorporate into the traditional art fair context. Highlights include exhibitor Josée Bienvenu (New York) presenting two sound works Joy, still and In Harmonicity, The Tonal Walkway, by Julianne Swartz who uses sound, kinetics, and other materials to make sculpture, installations and photographs.
Buenos Aires-based artist Sebastian Gordin, whose work is on view with exhibitor Rosenfeld Porcini (London), will present a special radio performance El cerebro mágico (the Magic Brain) based on a popular 1970s era Argentinian game.
In 2008, artist Liliana Porter, whose work is represented by exhibitor Espacio Minimo (Madrid), was commissioned by the Dia Foundation to create a Web-based project. In collaboration with Uruguayan composer Sylvia Meyer, they created Rehearsal, a sonic composition in which Meyer has composed various interpretations of "La donna è mobile" from Giuseppe Verdi's opera Rigoletto.
Live from Untitled Art, Miami Beach, the Podcast platform will also present an opportunity for a variety of spoken word performances including Sheldon Scott’s
