About this episode
In this episode I meet with Artist and painter Douglas Cantor to discuss his exhibition “Horses and Nudies” Follow the links included to visit the shows along with us!
Douglas Cantor was born in Puerto Bojaca in Columbia in 1989 but since 2012 he has lived his life as an artist through London, Glasgow and Berlin. Douglas’s paintings are often large romantic, richly coloured works with rearing horses and strong naked profiles. They share strong traits from how he chooses to identify with his Latin American heritage but also share tidbits from his life as he experiences it in being an immigrant in the UK.
You will hear us attend Douglas’s exhibition “Horses and Nudies” as it is now available on Custorian. His exhibition was one of thirteen in a marathon of shows held as a collaboration between GUTS gallery and Soft Punk magazine during the final thirteen weeks of 2020.
In discussion we consider his life in the lead up of this solo show, how his ideas take shape on each canvas and learn a little of the background thinking in how these works came into being.
If you are still with us after that, you can hear Douglas’s impressions of us attending another exhibition by Ruby Dickson who displayed in the same physical space just a few weeks before.
Please follow along and see what we see by visiting 3D captures of all the exhibitions we discuss, links to all these exhibitions are in the show notes, now let’s hear our chat.
