Manage episode 402422169 series 3554518
This week on the podcast is part one of our interview with artist Jane Chu. Throughout her career she’s combined her academic research with professional practice in the arts, philanthropy, and business administration. From 2014 to 2018 Jane was the 11th chairperson of the National Endowment for the Arts. Prior to that, she was the founding president and CEO of the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts in Kansas City, and was charged with overseeing a $413 million campaign to construct and open the center. Currently Jane is a practicing visual artist based in New York City, and her drawings of 3D colored objects atop black and white background scenes allow viewers to embrace multiple perspectives simultaneously. We’ll link to her website in the show notes so you can read more about her and her involvement with projects such as The Objects of Immigrants to America, by illustrating and telling stories of individuals from all walks of life who have immigrated to the United States. https://www.janechuart.com/
In our discussion, we unravel the complexities behind arts funding and its undeniable ripple effect across communities. Discover the expansive reach of the National Endowment for the Arts, far more inclusive than just nonprofits, and dive into the participatory heartbeat of their grant review process. Change-makers and art aficionados will find a trove of insights on how to engage with these panels and foster a fusion of creativity and commerce. The digital age has indeed redefined the arts funding landscape, carving out new avenues for artistic souls to traverse, intertwined with other disciplines, and free to explore both commissioned works and the pursuit of personal creative quests. Join us as we celebrate the artists who are pushing boundaries and painting our world with the broad strokes of innovation and entrepreneurship.
