ARTiculate: Beyond Western New York
ARTiculate is back! After a short hiatus the group has re-formed and is on track to bring some of the most artistically inclined people together to discuss the past, present, and future of art in the city. We have a fun agenda planned for this weekly podcast series, though we are always looking for input from our readers. What are the issues that are most important to local artists, galleries, etc.? Click continue (below) to listen to the podcast.
In this show (see below for podcast link), Claire Schneider, an Associate Curator of Contemporary Arts at The Albright Knox Art Gallery, attended and spoke with the people of ARTiculate about the Beyond Western New York event being planned this September. The scope of the gallery, as the most significant Buffalo visual art organization and its role as a resource to Western New York artists, is discussed on this podcast. Along with our podcasting regulars, Kenneth Payne, Rosaleen Marion and myself, Mollie Atkinson, we also invited David Granville along to impart his experience, as well as that of guest Sandra Bartz.

A Kennedy Visits Buffalo
Caroline Kennedy was in town for a visit with our mayor yesterday. A possible choice to succeed US Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Kennedy's name has been mentioned along with that of Attorney General Andrew Cuomo (son of former New York Governor Mario Cuomo) and our own Byron Brown, among others.
Certainly, Kennedy has "been around politics" all of her life, which is to say she was born into a family of politicos and lived in the White House--neither of which would necessarily f … - Dec 18th 2008, 7:55am

Downtown Free Fare Zone May be Axed
Free light rail rides on downtown's above ground section could be derailed thanks to the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority's budget mess. That is the news coming out of a Buffalo Place meeting this morning. Facing a budget shortfall and reduced State operating assistance, the NFTA is scrambling for new revenue sources and is contemplating charging for rides along the lengthy downtown pedestrian mall.- Dec 17th 2008, 4:40pm

The NFTA Santa Ride
Well it is Christmas time in the city and the NFTA helped put people and especially children into the mood in a very festive and fun way. One of my favorite memories of childhood was taking the train downtown with my grandfather. I would gaze out the windows and watch the tunnel speed by. It always felt like we were going a million miles an hour.
Then there was the ability to stand up and walk around during the ride without the need to be strapped down. It was always a fun time … - Dec 17th 2008, 4:34pm

I think that this show has become a back slapper for the curators. They get the artists they show and are interested in into the "event". The brown noses get it. The art community in Buffalo is becoming more and more stagnant and redundant. Bringing in an outside curator is the only way to combat this form of nepitism and get a fresh view on the art in WNY.
The only work I sell is on my own. Not or rarely in a Buffalo "Gallery" by these so called curators who for the most part couldn't curate themselves out of a paper bag unless they hung it next to the other paper bag that is. I sell and get grants year after year and I'm basically snubbed by the galleries in WNY segregated to the members shows. I have been in the Albrights' WNY art show in the past so I'm not that bitter just annoyed. What woudl be great if all you curators got together and talked about curating.
Kudos to Articulate for doing these podcasts. It's refreshing anyway.
