Joey Terrill's Lessons From a Life of Art & Activism

Do you believe in omens? In this episode of the Felix Podcast, groundbreaking Los Angeles artist Joey Terrill recalls the sense of foreboding he felt on the eve of the 1980s, a decade of catastrophic loss as the AIDS epidemic ravaged queer communities all over the world. He goes on to describe his lifetime of activism and how it shaped his art-making, a multidisciplinary practice of reclamation, emotional clarity and uncommon wit, now in its sixth decade. Facing today's epidemic of far-right extremism, the artist offers a sound piece of advice to anyone who's wondered what they'd do in similar times of crisis: "You don't have to wonder anymore. The time is now." Also in this episode: Janelle and Dean review the blockbuster "Monuments" show on view at The Brick and MOCA Geffen, reflecting on the power of art as a tool of political persuasion. Hours before Maurizio Cattelan's "America" hits Sotheby's auction block, Janelle also contemplates the golden toilet's reappearance with a similar sense of foreboding, citing the piece as an omen of cultural decay. #JoeyTerrill #TheFelixPodcast #Monuments #KaraWalker #Maurizio Cattelan
