Artist and musician Shaun O'Dell sits down in the Clocktower studios during the opening week of his works on paper exhibition at Susan Inglett Gallery (Feb. 15-March 15, 2008) entitled We Remember the Sun. O'Dell's precise and sprawling imagery is seductively narrative and reveals his thoughtful commitment to processes of nature and history. During the interview here with P.S.1's David Weinstein the two struggle to precisely recall some of O'Dell's extraordinary titles. Here are a few:
Eyes Fly Alone Over The Dark Waters Of Abyss Again
Skull Scribes The Plains' Last Marks Of Consciousness
The Howling Descent Of The Fathers' Howling Descent
Also included in the conversation is a bit of O'Dell's personal history and training including his musical background and ongoing projects such as with the band Sword and Sandals (with Randylee Sutherland and the irascible John Dwyer of Coach Whips, The OhSees). A recording of the trio playing at the opening on Feb. 15, 2008 frames the discussion. (35 minutes)
