Albert Chong - Part 2

We don't usually do a Part 2 with our selected artists, but since we did more of a deep dive into Albert Chong's personal background last time, we decided to record a second, shorter episode to engage more fully with his art practice and philosophies.In this episode we discuss creating from intuition, the value of non-academic art, elevating humble materials as well as the audience, and a personal story related to the artist Ana Mendieta. We also discuss his brand new work reflecting our current times and his upcoming exhibitions in Colorado and elsewhere.Albert's 2026 shows in Colorado will be at East Window Gallery and the Emmanuel Art Gallery, at the University of Colorado, Denver.If you’ve enjoyed the show, please leave us a rating, consider ⁠making a donation towards our ⁠podcast fund⁠, or ⁠become a sponsor⁠ to receive an on-air business feature.
