About AART
Veteran award-winning podcaster Chris Stafford talks to women artists from across mediums and around the world to get to know the person behind their art. Conversations are intimate and free flowing as we learn about the journey these talented women have taken to become successful artists. Testimonials: "It’s rare that I let everything hang out there about my past and what has formed me into an artist. I had a wonderful conversation with Chris Stafford recently and found myself doing just that—filling in the background. Chris was so easy to talk to and has a wonderful way of organically mining the truth of self within us that forms a sensitive picture of whomever she is conversing with—as we used to say, the gift of the gab. You should check out her podcast archive and listen to lots of incredible interviews that promote women in the arts." Anna Carll "Chris is a natural host and I thoroughly enjoyed talking with her. She’s authentic, personable, and has a clear passion for supporting women. Her conversations with female artists about their artistic journeys are in depth and thoughtful. She’s getting into territory others often ignore and uncovering some gems in the process.” Julie Davis “Thank you to host Chris Stafford for making me feel relaxed and bringing out all of my thoughts and feelings about life/art! After our interview I felt euphoric and accomplished and so appreciative for that. She is a wonderful interviewer.” Michele Byrne “Chris is a highly skilled interviewer who puts her guests at ease. She draws out the juicy bits of lived experience and contextualizes this against the grander arc of history.” Kathryn Andrews “I was honored to be interviewed by Chris. She has a unique perspective in the art world, and it's refreshing to see a podcast with such a wide variety of artists from all different backgrounds and disciplines.” Erin Spencer “Art making can be a solitary pursuit, the AART podcast gives a window into the life and vocation of the artist that informs and inspires while it entertains.” Suzie Baker “ The interview was a very enjoyable experience. Chris is a generous interviewer who draws out her subjects and is completely engaged in the conversation. She's a good listener and asks thoughtful questions.” Ingrid Christensen “AART is an important and unique platform for the stories of women artists and their work. From the art making processes to the personal materials that makes the creative process. The podcast’s greatest asset is Chris’ ability to getting the artists to “open up’, by her preparation process, and the questions she asks.” Maria Martinez-Cañas Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/aart--5814675/support (https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/aart--5814675/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss).

[…] So I had already read Dostoevsky. I had already done that pretty intensive Shakespeare class. So one of the options was a Hitchcock film class. And I never thought about film as literature before then, because this was in the English department. Again, it was a freshman English seminar. And they were small classes. The University of Pennsylvania is a big school. So these classes were all under 30 people, which was unique. That's the way they set it up. And so I studied Hitchcock, my first semester freshman year of college. And that was when I started understanding that film has its own language, that it has rhetoric, that it has semiology, that, I mean, all of the things that I never thought about watching movies, I was just entertained.
