Episode 56 features painter/sculptor Ana Benaroya. She is an artist born in New York City, raised in New Jersey. Ana graduated with her MFA in Painting and Printmaking from the Yale School of Art in 2019. From a queer perspective, Benaroya's work explores notions of power and desire by exaggerating and distorting the human body, playing with its form and its relationship to other bodies. She draws from the visual languages of comics, caricature, and pop culture and is influenced by images of bodybuilders, cartoons, gig-posters, and artists such as Tom of Finland, Robert Colescott, the Chicago Imagists as well as children's artwork. Benaroya's solo show, "The Softest Place on Earth" opened in NYC at Ross + Kramer Gallery in November 2020 and she has an upcoming solo with Carl Kostyal in London opening April 2021.Photo credit Laura June Kirschhttp://www.anabenaroya.com/ https://rkgallery.com/exhibitions/the-softest-place-on-earth https://www.juxtapoz.com/news/magazine/features/ana-benaroya-poetic-justice/ https://www.kostyal.com/ https://artmazemag.com/excess-and-extraness-talking-subversive-humour-and-macho-bodies-with-ana-benaroya/ https://thecreativeindependent.com/people/visual-artist-ana-benaroya-on-allowing-for-the-unexpected/

Season 6 continues! Russell &amp; Robert chat to emerging artist Ana Benaroya from her studio in Jersey City, New Jersey. Recorded remotely on 19th April 2020 during lockdown, we are massive fans of Ana's paintings!!!We discuss her early career as an illustrator, her love of cartoons, her passion for drawing, identifying with male characters in 80s/90s movies growing up and how she developed studies of the human body, in her early paintings of male physicality and how her focus has recently shifted to representing women’s bodies, particularly women in positions of power, muscularity, the influence of superheroes, bodily fluids, and smoke. We explore queerness, her passion for music especially opera and classical but also YES... the one and only, Celine Dion!!! We learn about Ana’s recent sport influenced paintings including use of multi-colours to project deep emotions, her admiration for painters such as Tom of Finland, Carroll Dunham, Peter Saul, Nicole Eisenman, Dana Schutz, Henry Taylor, Robert Cole Scott, Artemisia Gentileschi, the Chicago Imagists like Jim Nutt, Gladys Nillson, Karl Wirsum and the artists she studied with such as Rebecca Ness, Blair Whiteford and Dominic Chambers. Finally, we find out why her dream is to one day exhibit at the Met museum!!Ana’s forthcoming solo exhibition will open this Autumn in Chelsea, New York at Ross + Kramer gallery.

Ana Benaroya (QuarARTine special episode)

Yes, these are complicated times. In a weird way, this Radio Juxtapoz podcast conversation marks a turning point in perhaps human history. A few weeks back, as coronavirus was just entering the American landscape and already taking hold in Europe and Asia, we went to a 72nd floor on the tip of Manhattan to the Anchor offices to record a podcast with Juxtapoz Spring 2020 cover artist, Ana Benaroya.  Perhaps it's fitting? Benaroya is part of a new generation of painters that is redefining the gallery space with figuration and narrative storytelling that is a breath of fresh air in contemporary art. Her influences include cartoons and zine culture, but she is also working under the inspiration of some of the giants of the art world: Nicole Eisenman, Tom of Finland, Keith Haring, Robert Colescott, Joan Mitchell, Helen Frankenthaler, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Henri Matisse, to name a few. But her aesthetic is her own, and her newest solo show at Richard Heller Gallery in Santa Monica is a unique combination of a world she has created that combines music, history, fantasy, sexuality and play all in one show.     In this conversation, Radio Juxtapoz hosts Doug Gillen and Evan Pricco talk to Benaroya about her experiences between art school and grad school, what she had to relearn at Yale, about being a young gay artist in context with art history, her love of Celine Dion and how she wants to be part of the art historical lexicon.     The Radio Juxtapoz podcast is hosted by FIFTH WALL TV's Doug Gillen and Juxtapoz editor, Evan Pricco.  Episode 039 was recorded live in New York City at the Anchor offices, March 4, 2020. Thank you to Jessica Angeles at Anchor/Spotify for the support.
