An Artist's Dilemma (w_Gail Soliwoda Cassilly)
<p>In this episode of the Cassilly Chronicles, I sit down with my mother, Gail Soliwoda Cassilly, to delve into the intricacies and challenges of the artistic life. We explore her journey as an artist, the early days of City Museum, and the unique dynamic between her and my father, Bob Cassilly. We dive deep into the genesis of the Lafayette shop and its role in our family's creative journey. The Cassilly shop was a hub of artistic innovation and rehabilitation, where my parents transformed old facades and contributed to major art projects in Saint Louis, including those at the City Museum and the Saint Louis Zoo.</p> <p>From the bustling creativity that fueled their projects to the detailed craftsmanship in the Cassilly shop, this conversation offers a raw and intimate glimpse into the heart of our family's artistic legacy. Join us as we unravel stories that are as complex and vibrant as the artworks themselves. Don't forget to support us on Patreon for exclusive content and early access to future episodes!</p>
