In Booklyn Calling’s first episode, NYC-based multimedia artist Zoe Beloff joins in to talk about her 5ft x 130ft history painting recording the horrors of the Trump regime. It was inspired by her post-inaugural rage as well as the materiality of the hand-painted protest sign. Beloff shares insights into her work, her influences, her process, and where she fits into the world as a working artist.Zoe Beloff is a visual artist and filmmaker. She aims to make art that both entertains and provokes discussion. With a focus on social justice, she draws timelines between past and present to imagine a more egalitarian future. Zoe’s work has been featured in international exhibitions and screenings; including the Whitney Museum Biennale, Site Santa Fe, the M HKA museum in Antwerp, and the Pompidou Center in Paris. However, she particularly enjoys working in alternative venues that are free and open to the community for events and conversations. These have included in New York City; The Coney Island Museum, Participant, Momenta, and The James Gallery at the CUNY Graduate Center.Zoe’s website: http://www.zoebeloff.com/Zoe on Instagram @zoebeloffParade of the Old New: https://booklyn.org/catalog/parade-of-the-old-new/Reminiscences of a Refugee Childhood: https://booklyn.org/catalog/reminiscences-of-a-refugee-childhood/Between Worlds: http://www.zoebeloff.com/pages/between.htmlHIAS Charity: https://www.hias.org/The Allegory of Good and Bad Governmenthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Allegory_of_Good_and_Bad_Government***Booklyn linksWebsite: https://booklyn.org/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/booklynart/
