From This, To That is an interview-style art podcast where artists discuss their art, a personal or professional interest, and initially unbeknown and undiscovered connections between the two. In our conversations with these artists we learn how Anime connects to installation art, parallel universes connect to photography and glass, and many other unexpected connections, as well as dive deeper into the work of these Pittsburgh-based artists.
For the first episode of From This to That, we talk to Marvin Touré. Marvin Touré is an Ivorian-American artist who uses fictional narratives and the objects of innocence as a vehicle to interrogate themes of love, loss, and memory. Join us as we talk about anime, his art, and see how the two connect! Thank you for listening!
