PODCAST: Kendra Jayne Patrick
This spring, Kendra Jayne Patrick is opening up a new gallery called Harrison. She and I were both previously involved--at different times--with the artist-run gallery Essex Flowers, and I had always been super thrilled with the programming that she led there. She stopped by this week to talk about the current pop-up show Harrison programmed at Bortolami, the next steps in her program as she opens her physical space, why being a gallerist and a curator are distinct roles, getting into the New York art scene after attending law school, the ironic parallels between going to law school and pursuing an MFA, and much more. Also, some fucking car alarm went off multiple times while we were recording, but Kendra was a total champ about it. We’re sponsored this week by generous cash gifts from young Keanu Reeves and old Ted Kaczynski.
