Bad At Sports is a weekly podcast about contemporary art. Founded in 2005, badatsports.com focuses on presenting the practices of artists, curators, critics, dealers, various other arts professionals through an online audio format.
This week: Duncan talks with James Elkins about his forthcoming round table at Art Chicago, and the art Phd. Like you didn't have enough student loan debt.
BAS Boston's Matthew Nash talks to comic artist Liz Prince about her work, and her excellent book "Will you still love me if I wet the bed?"

First, Duncan and
Richard present a horribly off-track intro which consists largely of talk of
herpes and sleeping around. Eventually they get around to discussing what is
really important, this week’s show!
Steve Litsios, an
artist from La Chaux-de-Fonds in the French-speaking part of Switzerland, is
interviewed this week by Mark Staff Brandl. Litsios is known for his vast paper
installations, wall objects, smaller sculpture, and web-work, all of which are
elegant, restrained, and yet puckish in their surprising flirtation with
elements of garishness. His work has recently begun to incorporate political
content into his formerly abstract approach. The artist also plays in several
roots blues and skiffle bands.
Then, in the
closing, Duncan calls out Joseph Mohan. Other wackiness ensues.
With the financial market squeezing donors,
collectors and the backers of the art market, the word recession has
been a new mantra that has plagued the New York art scene. This week
Amanda Browder (host of the Amanda Browder Show) and Tom Sanford (BAS reporter and artiste) talk with Craig Houser (curator), Les
Rogers (artist) and John Lee (dealer/gallery owner) about the current
financial recession in New York and how it compares to the most recent
recession in the 80's. Watch out Elizabeth Peyton, your neck is first.
Next: Mike Benedetto (jackass, BAS film critic) reviews The Watchmen.
IMPORTANT: be sure to stick around after the credits for a very special and heart rending public service announcement from Mike, that, much to his surprise, I actually did run in the show.
