In episode 7 of Extracts, hosts Sarah Comyn and Megan Kuster are in conversation with interdisciplinary artist Jeanine Oleson (Associate Professor of Sculpture at Rutgers University) about her work on copper and more recent projects.

Jeanine’s art work invites audiences into multi-sensory experiences, often drawing on wry humour and absurdity as a mode of expressing critiques of mastery. In this episode, Jeanine speaks about her interest in labour and workers’ rights, how growing up in a port city developed around the fishing and forestry industries in the US state of Oregon influenced her development as an artist, how copper became the protagonist of her ‘CONduct/(or conDUCT) Matters’ project, and the process of filming at Chino Mine, one of the largest open-pit copper mines in the United States. 

In the show, Jeanine mentions a historic 1954 film based on an actual strike against the Empire Zinc Mine in New Mexico, and the film is called Salt of the Earth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sk3-As0yh3k

The conversation with Jeanine was recorded on 19 November 2024.

David Singer is an internationally acclaimed clarinetist whose career has included two
performances at the White House and more than 150 appearances in Carnegie Hall.
Joseph Horowitz in The New York Times wrote about David Singer, “To describe his
playing would be to enumerate a catalogue of virtues.”

Mr. Singer’s recording of the Aaron Copland Clarinet Concerto was praised by
Lawrence A. Johnson from Gramophone Magazine in the UK as “one of the finest
accounts around,” and his performances have been featured on the BBC and on Sirius
XM as a principal performer of the Grammy Award-winning Orpheus Chamber
Orchestra, NYC.

Professor Singer taught as a guest teacher at both the Yale and Princeton Schools of
Music as well as at the Thornton School of Music at the University of Southern
California, and is Emeritus Professor of Clarinet/Coordinator of Chamber Music at
Montclair State University, NJ. He continues to coach young musicians across Southern
California and performs with the Singer Chamber Players and the Channel Islands
Chamber Orchestra.

His debut memoir, From Cab Driver to Carnegie Hall, chronicles his remarkable journey
of overcoming obstacles and ultimately becoming successful in music and life.
From Cab Driver to Carnegie Hall has just been chosen among many ten’s of
thousands of books to be part of the Los Angeles Public Library collection.

“From Cab Driver to Carnegie Hall shows how effort and perseverance can turn dreams
into reality.” “This book is a testament to inspiration and resilience.” Diana Lopez,
Readers’ Favorite Five Star Review

A Courageous Story of a Life in Music - This is an excellent view of an inspired life in
the turgid world of classical music in the late 1960’s – 2000’s. Reading of his struggles
and triumphs to reach the top of his field and survive is stirring. Baron, Five Star
Amazon Review

“An intimate, candid look at the highs and lows of one musician’s artistic pursuit.”
Kirkus Reviews

Glazed ceramic, finished steel, speaker, audio equipment, single-channel audio track 5-minute on loop

2020/2025
This speaker sculpture plays sounds from the 1970 Women’s March NY mixed with those from 2017, 2025, and reenactments of suffrage march slogans. Sounds of tuning in or scratching records intersperse the tracks as if searching, evolving, or in the process of becoming clear.

"Wade Ronsse is a touring drummer, private drum teacher, session musician, and a small but enthusiastic part of Boise, Idaho's vibrant music scene. He tours nationally with Americana/Jam troubadour Jeff Crosby and has been a part of many (mostly locally) well regarded bands, including Lounge on Fire, Wend, Sun Blood Stories, Freeman Dejongh, and Rider & Rolling Thunder.

This more band-focused drumming has led to creative applications on projects spanning from heavy psychedelic rock, horn-driven R&B, psychedelic to avant-garde harp and string quartet experimental music, all the way to Honkey Tonk Country. His recording career is rooted in a deep appreciation for Boise-based musical creators, resulting in a small but cherished catalog of over 100 recordings with his favorite local musicians, collaborators, and friends. His 2025 record contributions include the surfy/twangy Day for Night with femme-fronted group Cactus Moon as well as the indie/folk and art rock Wait, Sky by Jesse Blake Rundle (released on DOE Records). 

When he's not behind the kit, Wade spends his time working on a small urban farm, taking long walks, reading and learning about mysticism and magick, consuming far too much Star Wars, and, of course, being a forever student of the drums."

Ep. 225: Chris Ramos

Sculptrice majeure française, Camille Claudel a marqué l’histoire de l’art bien que souvent effacée derrière son histoire avec Rodin et les écrits de son frère. À la croisée du réalisme, de l’art nouveau, du symbolisme et des estampes japonaises, Claudel s’est lancé des défis techniques dans la maîtrise des matériaux et des drapés.

C’était Baz’Art, bonne écoute !

Du 30 septembre 2025 au 11 janvier 2026

Les effigies vibrantes et dynamiques ont fait sa réputation internationale, tout en posant la question de l'impressionnisme en sculpture. Les commissaires de l'exposition, Cécilie Champy-Vinas, directrice du Musée Zadkine à Paris ; Anne-Lise Desmas, conservatrice des sculptures au Getty Museum de Los Angeles et Édouard Papet, conservateur général Sculpture, musée au musée d’Orsay; retracent le parcours artistique hors norme de ce sculpteur italien dont la vie est ponctuée de rencontres décisives avec des hommes et des femmes du monde, dont il fixe le portrait.

Great art almost feels like magic—it opens our minds to brand new ideas, and teaches us to see ourselves and our world more clearly. Of course, behind all great art, there are artists. And that’s where the real magic happens…

As we go beneath the art itself to explore how different artists do what they do, we see glimpses of the sorts of creativity, resilience, and bravery that lead to the art that moves our world. And maybe we can learn to borrow some of that magic for our very own thinking.

Join professional musician Emily Merrell for conversations with artists of all kinds. Together, we examine the mysteries of our own experiences, our muses and fears, our gifts and foibles, our beliefs about the origins of creativity, and the secret magic we’ve discovered in our unique creative processes. 

Mediums include: studio art, graphic design, dance, cooking, illustration, creative writing, storytelling, comedy, music composition, music performance, film making, acting, production, fashion design, photography, and more.
