In Episode #31 Marx has a conversation with Canadian artist David Elliott
David Elliott is a staple of the Canadian community of painters, he has been associated with the late seventies and early eighties return to figuration. David was born in Niagara on the Lake and grew up in several towns in Ontario. In this interview he shares the story that he calls the “Eureka moment”, when he discovered a painting in the London (Ontario) library and everything happened in the arts after that.
David moved to Montreal to pursue his BFA and MFA degrees at Concordia University where he also was part of the faculty until he retired recently.
In this interview he describes his work and being a professor, he is able to elegantly place his work around many historical references including the music of the moment (Beetles, etc.) and also he shared a long list of artists both Canadian and international that played an important role in his artistic development.
His work is collected in prestigious private and public collections around Canada
I am very pleased to be able to share this conversation with David Elliott, it’s one of those that is packed with great insights and information that artists specifically may not want to miss.
Thanks for listening!

In Episode #25 New York based artist David Kramer shares stories from New York City in the late 80’s and 90’s where he developed his career.
David Kramer’s work draws from all-things America to create pieces influenced by the meme-era combining painting and hook-rug techniques to create aesthetics that seem suspended in the late 70’s or 80’s. His work has always been a conduit for sharing his take on contemporary culture.
David Kramer lives and work in New York City, he has a BFA from George Washington University and an MFA from Pratt Institute. We meet up over zoom to have this great conversation where we dive into politics, family history, all-things art world, COVID and more.
Thanks for listening!
