Listen "90. Sanford Biggers"
Episode Synopsis
Sanford Biggers creates hybridized forms that transpose, combine and juxtapose classical and historical subjects to create alternative meanings and produce what he calls “future ethnographies.” His work is an interplay of narrative, perspective, and history that speaks to current social, political, and economic happenings while also examining the contexts that bore them. His diverse practice positions him as a collaborator with the past through explorations of often-overlooked cultural and political narratives from American history.
Zuckerman curated his first one-person museum exhibition 20 years ago this year and will open the new Orange County Museum of Art with a new site specific commission. He and she discuss where ideas come from, making space, trees, transcendent moments, Buddhists and break dancers, the symphony of silence, new iconographies, where we are from, and power objects!
