Episode No. 572 features curators Reto Thüring and Lisa Volpe. With Akili Tommasino, Thüring is the co-curator of "Frank Bowling's America's," which opens at the MFA Boston this weekend. The exhibition work that the British Guiana–born Bowling made when he lived in New York from 1966-75 (at which point he returned to London, his previous home). The show features the often enormous paintings Bowling made in those years, and considers them within the context of his art criticism and curatorial projects. The exhibition is on view through April 9, 2023. The outstanding exhibition catalogue was published by the museum. Indiebound and Amazon offer it for $40-50.
