In episode 4 of our mini series The London Open Live Podcast, we present 'Futurity - Ignorance is Bliss?' featuring Lois Weaver, Gigi Brathwaite, and Pianka Parna (host). In this conversation, we reflect on ideas of momentum, mapping out what we need from our audiences and each other as live art practitioners and artists. How do we nurture intergenerational and inter-experiential exchange? How can we begin to break out of scarcity mentalities and focus on solidarity building and resourcing sharing?

Hear, Now. Episode 20: Life Is More Important Than Art
Giving us a behind-the-scenes look at the Life Is More Important Than Art summer season, which encompasses exhibitions, social spaces, live performances and listening experiences, award-winning journalist Stephen Smith speaks to the artists, curators and contributors that made it all happen.
Featuring interviews with Gallery Director Gilane Tawadros alongside artists Osman Yousefzada, Rana Begum, John Smith, Martin O'Brien, Sarah Davies and Stephanie Jefferies, and William Cobbing, the Life is More Important Than Art podcast takes a closer look at the contemporary relevance of the James Baldwin quote that informs the exhibition's title, and an opportunity to learn more about the artworks on display - directly from the artists.
