Kathryn Bilyard: arts activist

<p>Phoebe&nbsp;speaks to&nbsp;Kathryn&nbsp;about&nbsp;how&nbsp;she set up&nbsp;ARTCRY—a&nbsp;politically responsive, public&nbsp;art fund&nbsp;that&nbsp;gives&nbsp;applicants a decision within 7 days.&nbsp;</p><br><p>She talks about how she&nbsp;noticed a lack of political artwork in the public realm like&nbsp;the&nbsp;memorable artistic&nbsp;protests of&nbsp;the 1980s. She explains&nbsp;part of why that work didn’t exist was&nbsp;there was no existing fund to&nbsp;support reactionary artwork with a&nbsp;lead time of anything&nbsp;less than&nbsp;6 weeks.&nbsp;In solving that problem, Kathryn&nbsp;came up with ARTCRY.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Kathryn&nbsp;explains how&nbsp;she&nbsp;used professional networks and input from artists to refine the initial idea. She also&nbsp;discusses&nbsp;the skill set she built as a theatre producer that proved instrumental in building the partnerships that took ARTCRY from&nbsp;idea to reality.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Kathryn’s&nbsp;experience shows that if you notice a gap in the market, something that you think should exist but doesn’t, you might be the perfect person to build it.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Arts Work is brought to you by Sadler’s Wells in association with Barclays Dance Pass.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>You can find:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><ul><li>transcripts and details on the full series&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sadlerswells.com/arts-work-podcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>here</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>more information on Barclays Dance Pass&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sadlerswells.com/barclays-dance-pass/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>here</strong></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>follow Sadler's Wells on Twitter&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/sadlers_Wells" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Sadlers_Wells</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>more information on&nbsp;ARTCRY&nbsp;<a href="https://www.artcry.co.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>&nbsp;</li><li>follow&nbsp;ARTCRY&nbsp;on Twitter&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/ARTCRY1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ARTCRY1</a>&nbsp;</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;Kathryn mentions: </p><p><a href="https://www.improbable.co.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Improbable&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href="https://www.whatnextculture.co.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">What next&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href="https://www.eea.org.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Emergency Exit Arts&nbsp;&nbsp;</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Phil Douglas: arts producer

<p>Ankur speaks to Phil (he/him) about how his&nbsp;journey&nbsp;as a producer&nbsp;began by running a one-off queer club night and has led him to&nbsp;creating&nbsp;one of the UK’s biggest&nbsp;arts festivals&nbsp;dedicated to&nbsp;LGBTQIA+&nbsp;culture.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>He explains how he&nbsp;initiated long-overdue conversations&nbsp;about queer representation within larger arts institutions,&nbsp;which led to long-lasting partnerships. He talks through how he applied for, then allocated, funding&nbsp;and support from multiple sources&nbsp;to help him create the first iteration of Curious Festival.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Phil&nbsp;shares how he came to feel&nbsp;comfortable&nbsp;with the title and&nbsp;responsibilities&nbsp;of ‘producer’.&nbsp;He&nbsp;talks about&nbsp;how&nbsp;positive role models&nbsp;helped&nbsp;him&nbsp;give himself&nbsp;permission to be confident when networking&nbsp;and&nbsp;building collaborations&nbsp;to expand the cultural offerings in the North East of England.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Phil’s experience&nbsp;shows the power of identifying a gap in the market and&nbsp;harnessing your own perspective, entrepreneurship&nbsp;and creative energy&nbsp;to bring new ideas and ventures to life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Arts Work is brought to you by Sadler’s Wells in association with Barclays Dance Pass.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>You can find:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><ul><li>transcripts and details on the full series&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sadlerswells.com/arts-work-podcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>here</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>more information on Barclays Dance Pass&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sadlerswells.com/barclays-dance-pass/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>here</strong></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>follow Sadler's Wells on Twitter&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/sadlers_Wells" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Sadlers_Wells</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>more information on Curious Arts&nbsp;<a href="https://curiousarts.org.uk/about-us" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>&nbsp;</li><li>follow&nbsp;Curious Arts&nbsp;on Twitter&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/curiousarts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@CuriousArts</a>&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Ivan Blackstock: multidisciplinary artist

<p>Ankur speaks to Ivan Blackstock about the many hats he wears as an artist and how he stays true to himself across the disciplines of dance, theatre, film and music, to name a few.</p><p>Ivan talks about creating spaces such as CRXSSPLATFXRM, to showcase new work and enable collaborations in hip hop and street culture. He talks about going between the worlds of performing at Sadler’s Wells and choreographing Beyoncé’s BROWN SKIN GIRL video.</p><br><p>Ivan shares how self-guided learning, especially through social media, is core to how he continues to grow as an artist. He talks about how he has built up a community of collaborators over the years, who are also his greatest supporters and who help him in times of self-doubt.</p><br><p>Ivan’s experience is a great example of how to build a body of work within existing organisations and within new contexts that you create. His story is a testament to a two- way street that makes the best artists: when you learn from and pave the way for the artists around you, you develop yourself.</p><br><p>Arts Work is brought to you by Sadler’s Wells in association with Barclays Dance Pass.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>You can find:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><ul><li>transcripts and details on the full series&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sadlerswells.com/arts-work-podcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>here</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>more information on Barclays Dance Pass&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sadlerswells.com/barclays-dance-pass/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>here</strong></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>follow Sadler's Wells on Twitter&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/sadlers_Wells" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Sadlers_Wells</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>follow&nbsp;Ivan&nbsp;on Twitter&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/ivanblackstock?lang=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ivanblackstock</a>&nbsp;</li><li>And follow&nbsp;CRXSSPLATFXRM&nbsp;on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/crxssplatfxrm" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@crxssplatfxrm</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>Ivan also mentions:</p><br><p><a href="https://www.birdgangltd.com/?gclid=CjwKCAjwiLGGBhAqEiwAgq3q_tNHRHCzF--Z7-_nE20Ud9tzbY6OiOipYJoTBX7_UDpo0as8x7AIbRoCAX0QAvD_BwE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Birdgang&nbsp;</a></p><br><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRFS0MYTC1I" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">BROWN SKIN GIRL video</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
