#57 with Michael Stamm

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists!My guest today is the Brooklyn-based painter Michael Stamm. Stamm explores themes of strength and weakness, vice and virtue, and self-actualization versus obliteration in his work. Stamm received an MFA from New York University and MA in English Literature from Columbia University, and attended Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in 2016. Stamm has had solo and two-person exhibitions at Deli Gallery (NYC), DC Moore (NYC) and Thierry Goldberg Gallery (NYC) and Shulamit Nazarian in Los Angeles; He is a NYFA Artist Fellowship recipient and has been featured in the New Yorker, Artforum, W Magazine, and Art in America. His work is in the permanent collection of the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami.In this first part of our conversation we explore Stamm’s multimedia process using stone and texture, his reliance on digital tools, the psychological function of his painted frames, his current technical explorations in glazing and figure drawing, why he can't replicate past successes, and his philosophy on time-intensive painting processes.
