Hey Lucinda. Hi. How's it going? Going well.
0:20
Going well. Not too shabby. So I told you last
0:24
week that I went to the Works on Paper gallery.
0:27
Oh yes. And I saw Jake Weinstein's clanker. I
0:32
hope I said his name right. Jake will be one
0:34
of the last graduates of PAFA, and congratulations
0:38
to Evan, the gallery owner, and Jake, the artist,
0:41
as this show is nearly sold out. Wow. By the
0:45
day. Like, Recession Indicator, what? Yeah. But
0:48
I also think that this is a fantastic show. That's
0:51
incredible. Good for them. Worth trying to get
0:54
one of those last pieces. I also went to the
0:58
AIA Awards, that is the American Institute of
1:01
Architects. The company I worked for actually,
1:04
we had a PM who was the owner's rep on a few
1:10
of the winners, so. Congratulations to all the
1:14
winners. Did you know that Design Philadelphia,
1:18
which I think is affiliated with the AIA in one
1:21
way or another, but they are moving to Hamilton
1:24
Hall, which is going to be the new Bach building.
1:27
Amazing. Or so I hear. Yes, it'll be the Avenue
1:30
of the Arts Bach building. The Bach building
1:33
of the Avenue of the Arts. Yes. Don't take our
1:36
branding, guys. And then finally, right before
1:41
coming to record, I was at the Ballet X subscriber
1:44
mixer. So good. The one set of tickets that I
1:50
did not buy for this year is the set at Bryn
1:54
Mawr, but watching that rehearsal was enough
1:58
to make me want to buy the tickets. Oh, I'm going.
2:00
You are? Oh, yeah. Do you have a second ticket?
2:04
I can get one. Okay, yeah. Would you like to
2:07
come with a young friend? Hey! Young exer. Ouch.
2:13
Okay, about the mixer, the subscriber mixer that
2:17
I went to. It was a rehearsal from choreographic
2:20
fellow Christian Denise who was chosen out of
2:24
80 candidates. Wow. The Ballet X team was at
2:29
work. This was the fourth day of rehearsal. So
2:33
Christine said that maybe they were feeling a
2:35
little bit vulnerable, but there was no reason
2:37
to be vulnerable because this is a team of all
2:41
stars. I almost became a donor tonight. Rather,
2:45
our podcast almost became a donor tonight. Giving
2:47
out dollars. Oh gosh. Making it rain in the Ballet
2:52
X rehearsal space. Also, did you see Keylan at
2:57
the Ballet X studios on Sunday night football
3:01
last night? I heard great things. They were actually
3:05
at the game too. Last night, from my texts, from
3:11
my husband, 11 15 p .m. Ballet X on SN. F period.
3:19
This morning, me, 6 o' 6 a .m. What? I missed
3:24
it. I slept through it. But amazing. Yes. So
3:28
great. No, it's so great to see the community
3:31
partnerships that going that are going on. And
3:34
it just works. Yeah, totally. All right. Shall
3:38
we get to the conversation onto the conversation?
3:41
It's a good one. This is Robert Marsh and you're
3:58
listening to Philly Has Heart podcast. In this
4:01
podcast, we sit down with the artists, gallerists,
4:04
educators, curators, and other creatives who
4:07
comprise the Philadelphia art world to discuss
4:10
upcoming performances, exhibits, and other events
4:13
and initiatives that are not to be missed. The
4:16
art scene in Philadelphia is so rich that it
4:19
can seem daunting. Consider this your weekend
4:21
cultural recommendation. With me always is my
4:25
producer Lucinda Daggerlund. Hello. Hello. And
4:28
today we have Trish and Joe a third Street gallery
4:31
Welcome welcome. Thank you. Hi Yeah, thanks for
4:38
coming guys Thanks. Yes. Thank you for having
4:40
us We always start with each individuals origin
4:44
story kind of their e true Hollywood story of
4:48
how they came to their journey that brought them
4:52
to art, you know, moments both big and small.
4:56
Trish, do you want to start? Probably originally
4:58
an art appreciator. Nice. Yeah, galleries were
5:00
my thing. Obviously art museums, things like
5:04
that. I'm a photographer, but I'm a late bloomer
5:08
when it comes to that. My journey as a photographer,
5:12
I have to say, started in the early aughts in
5:15
Paris. Wow. Sounds very romantic. We were there
5:19
in the winter, which is the best time to go to
5:21
Paris, and I had this dinky little 35 millimeter
5:26
camera, you know, because I was a tourist, I
5:29
take tourist shots, and I kept seeing all these
5:31
beautiful photographs I wanted to take, and this
5:33
dinky camera was driving me crazy, because it
5:37
wouldn't do it. And I was complaining. bitterly
5:41
about it the whole time. My husband said enough
5:44
already, you know. And so he surprised me actually
5:48
that year for our anniversary with an SLR camera.
5:52
When the developing of those films after a trip
5:55
to England that summer was over $500, he said,
5:57
right, I'm getting you a digital. You're done
6:01
with us now. Exactly. So, I mean, that was the
6:05
early aughts and I played and then became more
6:08
of a serious hobbyist. But as I was approaching
6:11
retirement, I said, I really want to do this
6:14
more seriously. So I began to do much more serious
6:17
reading on photography. I took some classes at
6:21
what was then the Philadelphia Photos Art Center,
6:24
which is now Tilt. So I took some classes there,
6:27
which were really helpful. I belonged to a really
6:30
good... women's group there, and they did a lot
6:33
of portfolio reviews, which was, I found, extremely
6:35
educational. And that's how my journey started.
6:38
Oh, that's beautiful. How about for yourself,
6:41
Jim? I've been creating since I can remember.
6:44
I've always been an art kind of person, starting
6:47
with, like, crafting as a kid and sort of building
6:51
up from there. I'm mostly a... painter and photographer
6:56
like Trish and I also started with 35 millimeter
6:59
although not as early and it really just created
7:03
a appreciation for process so I love process
7:07
of creating and all the different things that
7:10
go into it from the most minute boring parts
7:12
to the fun let's pick a color parts but yeah
7:16
I've always been creating and I always like to
7:18
try new things which is to my detriment because
7:21
I can never focus on what I need to finish. So
7:25
you'll see me playing in ceramics, even though
7:29
I'm not good, like just because I haven't done
7:32
it. So I'm always constantly looking for what's
7:35
next. Oh, wow. Wow. Any formal training yourself?
7:38
I went to school for retail and exhibition design
7:42
because I wasn't sure how the art world was.
7:45
work going into fine arts directly. So no, not
7:49
formally, but I have taken different classes
7:52
in that world. I have to think that the exhibition
7:55
design helps you think spatially and that must
7:59
transfer into the two dimension, right? I think
8:03
first in 3D and then in 2D, which I feel like
8:06
is opposite for some people. Yeah, I'm always
8:09
thinking of how it relates to the entire. space
8:12
of if it's going to hang on the wall or where
8:15
it's sort of going to be. So I would say, yeah.
8:18
Excellent. Thursday Gallery has exclusively operated
8:22
as a co -op gallery since its inception in 1978.
8:26
Can you explain what a co -op gallery is? Sure.
8:30
A co -op gallery is a group of artists who run
8:35
the gallery cooperatively. I'm the director,
8:38
and I always say to people, don't be impressed.
8:40
That means the members voted for me to do the
8:42
admin work. And that's what I do. I'm an equal
8:48
as everyone else. We do everything on a democratic
8:50
basis, and we truly cooperate with one another.
8:56
The mission of Third Street Gallery from its
8:58
inception has been to offer a community for the
9:02
artists, as well as a place to exhibit. So having
9:05
an actual gallery space is really important to
9:09
us. It's also different in that we have 25 owners,
9:14
and we as a community and committee of the whole
9:17
jury artists in. And one of the things, though,
9:20
that... you get to do it third street, unlike
9:23
a commercial gallery, because a commercial gallery,
9:26
they're really interested in what they can sell.
9:29
Here, we're just interested in what do you do.
9:32
So a lot of our artists bring in their more experimental
9:36
works into the gallery. Our artists can show
9:40
anywhere. We don't say, you're a member with
9:42
us and you can't show anywhere. In fact, actually,
9:45
we celebrate when people have shows elsewhere.
9:47
but very often they'll say, yeah, over there
9:50
I show my more traditional stuff, and here's
9:53
where I do my fun stuff. How interesting. So
9:57
there's a space for experimentation. Yes, absolutely.
10:00
There's a lot more freedom than there would be
10:02
in a traditional gallery. Mostly like Trish was
10:05
saying focus on the sales. Do you speak together
10:09
about creating a theme or a trend throughout
10:14
the year or throughout a particular month? Or
10:18
is it really just this member gets this particular
10:21
month and they get to bring in whatever they
10:23
wish? Three times a year we have group shows.
10:27
In December we're going to have one of our group
10:29
shows. In January we're closed because the poor
10:32
walls really do need... to be looked after. And
10:36
it's a dull month anyway, and it's too cold to
10:38
be out. We've heard that. Yes. Actually, a couple
10:42
of the other co -op galleries and galleries,
10:44
they take January off, and it's about spackling,
10:49
and it's about covering some holes in the wall
10:51
and repaying. Exactly, and just doing general
10:54
good cleanup. Yes. But then the rest of the time,
10:57
we have two artists get an individual show. So
11:00
if you've ever been to the gallery, when you
11:02
come in, the first 22 feet on either side are
11:05
dedicated to individual shows. And it's always
11:09
amazing how they always look good. They always
11:11
sort of work together in a weird way. Yeah. Wow.
11:14
Yeah. Sometimes people say, oh no, I want a show
11:16
with so -and -so because they think they work.
11:19
works well together. And sometimes it's just
11:21
a random draw, but somehow it always works. It
11:24
always works, whether it's scale, color. There's
11:27
always a nice tie. Exactly. And then the back
11:30
of the gallery is always for the members. So
11:34
our members can literally show 11 months out
11:37
of the year if they choose to. Oh, incredible.
11:39
Yeah, because we do have the members area. Excellent.
11:42
And that wouldn't be a thematic story. It's more
11:45
just what people want to show in a given. that
11:49
represents them. Yeah, so for our group shows,
11:51
we do come up with a theme slash title, and then
11:55
people bring in what they want anyway. It's a
11:56
very loose theme to just get the ball rolling,
12:00
really. Nobody's keeping these artists in boxes,
12:03
okay? I will say, the one theme that we do stick
12:06
hard to is the Friends show in February, where
12:09
we ask our members to invite someone, and then
12:12
we show that works together, and the gallery
12:14
then becomes a explosion of... 50 artists at
12:19
any given time. Wow. That's probably the one
12:22
we stick hard and fast to, but every other one,
12:26
it's a very loose theme. Well, and also, while
12:28
we'll have a different title every year for the
12:31
December show, the other thing we stick hard
12:33
and fast to is everything that you bring to the
12:36
gallery has to be... at the absolute most $500.
12:40
So it's $500 and under. For the December show?
12:43
Yeah, for the December. Yeah, to keep it accessible.
12:45
Okay. Yeah, yeah. And that's the other thing.
12:47
We like to be an accessible gallery. We don't
12:52
want people to think, oh, you're a gallery, you
12:54
know? Right. We try and do a lot of things, including
12:58
like doing silly things in the windows sometimes.
13:00
I mean, we display art, but we'll do... That's
13:03
great. Like right now... November, it's like
13:06
a forest floor and we have these nudes. So it's
13:10
like nudes in a forest floor. Sometimes you can
13:12
be just silly. Yes, yes. Hey, it draws the people
13:16
in. It brings them in. Yeah, we do a lot of community
13:19
building within the South Street and Queens Village
13:22
neighborhoods. We try to be part of their festivals
13:26
and different events and even bring up events
13:29
of our own and have them. sort of help us out
13:32
and we really do like to be part of the community
13:36
and really be a place where you don't have to
13:39
buy something. You can come in and just appreciate.
13:42
We just want people to experience what we have
13:45
to show. South Street does what they call the
13:48
candy crawl, and it's trick -or -treating. Kids
13:49
go around the various businesses. And we always
13:52
participated. And one of our members said, gee,
13:55
it would be nice if we could keep people in the
13:57
gallery longer. And then she said, why don't
14:00
we do a scavenger hunt? And Mary is great. She
14:05
writes questions and sends them to me. I type
14:08
them up. I send them to Joe. He puts them on
14:10
a really good graphic. And in part of our co
14:14
-op. where there's no competition, it's you have
14:18
fun, you play. If you do it, you get a prize.
14:21
Oh, that's great. And Mary does not make it easy,
14:24
so... I couldn't answer it this year. I couldn't
14:27
find it. Oh, my gosh! There was a hidden baseball.
14:30
Trish had to help me. It's... Yeah. Wow. That's
14:34
great. That's great. Yeah, so this year we had
14:36
over 70 kids come in and do it. The parents were
14:41
like, oh, they look forward to this every year.
14:43
Oh, that's amazing. And it's fun because it gets
14:46
the kids looking at art. Correct. Yeah, helping
14:49
that critical eye and looking at the details
14:51
because Mary finds some weird stuff in this art
14:54
to find. So, yeah, you really have to look and
14:59
think, which is a great skill to have in art.
15:02
That's amazing. Oh, do you want to talk about
15:04
the community canvas? This year we had the pleasure
15:07
of having a Temple student reach out to us, oh
15:11
no, Drexel student reach out to us and they wanted
15:15
to do their final project on the gallery as part
15:18
of communications. So we sat with her over the
15:22
course of a few months and she, as she did her
15:25
school project, we were sort of taking her ideas
15:28
and seeing what we could incorporate in real
15:32
life. what worked and what maybe wouldn't work
15:35
for us. And an idea she came up with was to have
15:39
a community -based event where people would come
15:42
and create something, and then we would showcase
15:45
it all together, which then evolved into our
15:49
community canvas, where we asked people to paint
15:52
a six -by -six square over the Fourth of July
15:54
weekend, put them all together and built a...
15:57
big canvas of them. Wow! In August we have a
16:00
group show as well and we had a whole big unveiling
16:03
of the community canvas and a lot of people who
16:06
participated in it came to see it and it has
16:09
a permanent home. Kate Allen, who's the president
16:12
of Queen Village Neighborhood Association, she
16:15
said to me So what's going to happen? Is it going
16:18
to stay up there all the time? And I said, no,
16:19
we need that space for the artist. Space is limited.
16:24
Exactly. We'd love to find a permanent home.
16:26
She says, oh, we'll take it. Wow. Where is it?
16:29
It's in the Queen Villa Neighborhood Association
16:32
office. We got a lot of great feedback on it,
16:35
and it's something we've decided is going to
16:36
be an annual tradition for us, so we're excited
16:40
for the next one. I hope that Drexel student
16:42
got an A. She did. It's not often you can implement
16:48
something like that. No, she was really, really
16:51
wonderful. And the other thing, community -wise,
16:55
is we've had three films done in the community.
16:58
Oh, wow. Two by students from Temple. Those were
17:02
the Temple students. And, in fact, the first
17:05
one was funny. It was a dark comedy. And it was
17:08
about a gallery that was failing, so he calls
17:10
in this ringer to give him a good review. And
17:14
they were apologizing profusely before this,
17:16
because, of course, the guy says, the art's all
17:18
crap. It's just crap. Oh, my! Our artists laughed.
17:25
They thought that was great. It was perfect.
17:28
And then the third one was by Johnny Baker. It
17:31
was a short. It was a major scene in the gallery.
17:34
And he was really, really delightful. All of
17:37
them were delightful to work with. But just to
17:39
plug Johnny a little bit, that film won first
17:42
category at Cons. Oh, wow. And he did not disguise
17:46
Third Street Gallery. We were like all over that
17:48
film. Oh, my gosh. That's great. That's great.
17:50
Yeah, so we were very excited about that. How
17:53
long have you both been members? I've been a
17:56
member since 2020. I think I've been a member
18:00
for four and a half years. I started July 21,
18:04
shortly after moving to the city. Oh, now you
18:07
say it. When the new members juryed in and then
18:09
they have to go through the jurying process because
18:11
we're jurying in something else, they're like,
18:13
well, what exactly do you look for? And we said,
18:15
well, is the art good? Is it consistently good?
18:20
does it fit with what we do or does it move us
18:22
in a new direction? And because of that, we have
18:27
formally trained artists and we also have a lot
18:31
of self -taught artists. It makes for a dynamic
18:35
community, but if you come into the gallery,
18:37
it also makes for a really dynamic space because
18:40
people approach art from very different perspectives.
18:44
So like we have an artist who's a retired OBGYN
18:48
and she's a photographer. And it's interesting
18:51
her approach to photography versus mine. I'm
18:56
more interested in the camera. I'll go out and
18:57
take pictures. And if I have to play with it
18:59
for more than an hour, I just toss it. She's
19:03
a surgeon, and she goes in surgically to work
19:05
on her, to do adjustments, and they're beautiful.
19:09
But it's just different ways of seeing art and
19:12
seeing how to do art and different processes
19:14
that come out of these things. Do each one of
19:16
the members have some type of peer review as
19:19
well with each other? Because we are a built
19:22
-in community, a lot of our members are very
19:25
close friends, and they will work together on
19:29
different projects or... Getting their opinions
19:32
on oh, I have my show coming up. How should I
19:35
lay out my wall? So we get a lot of that. I don't
19:39
know about formal peer reviews, but definitely
19:42
informally Yeah, really very informal. Oh, yeah,
19:46
bring in stuff This is what I'm playing with
19:49
now. What do you think? How about the curation
19:52
of the space once those do go up? Is that more
19:55
of a cooperative of putting the space together
19:59
each month or is it just the artist? Well, when
20:04
it comes to the individual show, the artists
20:07
technically curate their own. But as we always
20:11
say, help is always there. Some artists have
20:16
definite ideas of how they want it done, and
20:19
other artists are like, I need help. And I have
20:23
to think that people outside of the artist, looking
20:27
at it with fresh eyes can bring a perspective
20:30
that maybe was colored a certain way by the artist
20:34
themselves prior. Yeah, yeah. And we tried to
20:37
make, you know, in the members area, and then
20:39
of course in group shows, We always say, we try
20:43
to put your piece to its best advantage. So where
20:46
in the gallery will it look best and what looks
20:50
really good around it. So that's the big part
20:53
of the jigsaw puzzle. Which is not easy when
20:57
you have a hundred pieces in a group show at
20:59
your rate. This is so true, so true. Do either
21:03
of you have any current or upcoming projects
21:05
or exhibitions? We have a show next year. That's
21:10
next year, yeah. Well, I've been doing a lot
21:17
of preliminary work on the Kimmel Center. I've
21:21
really gravitated into abstract architectural.
21:26
My last two shows were on the Guggenheim in Bilbao.
21:30
It's a Frank Gehry building. Totally obsessed
21:33
with that building. But becoming obsessed with
21:36
the Kimmel Center. So I've been doing a lot of
21:38
preliminary work on it. And now that it's getting
21:42
dark earlier, I'm hoping to get in because I've
21:46
decided it's really best to do especially the
21:48
indoor shots at night because you can... get
21:51
rid of all the stuff that's outside those glass
21:54
ceilings. Oh excellent. If you're in the kind
21:58
of great space and you look up through the skylight
22:02
in just the right way you can see up into people's...
22:05
apartments in our house. Not that I did that.
22:12
Yes. When we have individual artist shows, we
22:15
do an artist talk, which is just a real nice,
22:19
friendly conversation. That's great. So that's
22:22
going to be on Sunday. And then you have a group
22:24
show starting in December? Yes. Yes, the first
22:26
Friday in December, we have our holiday group
22:29
show. Everything's under $500, and it's the perfect
22:34
place to find I think anything from $2 to $500.
22:40
Wow. And we've started an experiment. We're launching
22:43
gift cards, e -gift cards. So we had a couple
22:46
people come in and say, oh, we'd like, but I
22:48
don't know what their tastes really are. And
22:49
I know they would like a piece of art. Yes. So
22:51
we said, all right, well. We'll try it. We'll
22:53
try it. And yeah, and then we do a soft opening
22:57
on first Fridays, but then we have our opening
23:00
receptions on Sundays. Where can the audience
23:04
find you in real life and online? Well, at the
23:08
gallery. Can you give us the address, please?
23:13
610 South 3rd Street or between South and Bainbridge.
23:17
Excellent. thirdstreetgallery .com and then same
23:20
thing for the Instagram at thirdstreetgallery.
23:23
And I'm going to link all that in the show notes
23:25
because it's third with the numeral three. Oh,
23:28
yes. Yes, it's three R -D. Yes. Excellent. Well,
23:32
thank you so much for chatting with us today.
23:34
We're going to end with a couple of rapid fire
23:36
questions as we always do. What is your favorite
23:40
Philadelphia neighborhood? Queen Village. Nice.
23:44
Yeah, I would say the South Street area. Yeah.
23:47
The Philadelphia art scene in one word. Dynamic.
23:52
Chaotic, but in the best way. Nice. If you could
23:56
work in any other medium and achieve the same
24:00
success you currently have, what would it be?
24:04
I've been really into fiber weaving and that
24:08
kind of thing. My work right now, I rip apart
24:11
photographs and stitch them back together and
24:13
create these like... abstract pieces. Right now
24:17
I'm working with a bunch of models on a new series
24:19
of them. But yeah, I think something with textiles
24:24
I would really love to do. Very nice. I think
24:27
drawing. Your soundtrack when you work. I have
24:31
a horrible taste in music. So my soundtrack is
24:36
anything from musicals to today's hits to something
24:42
in the 50s like it's chaotic yeah any music before
24:47
1800 wow nice cheese steaks with whiz or without
24:52
you know i grew up in east germantown i'm a philly
25:01
girl and i never like cheese steaks okay that's
25:04
right provolone all the way nice okay A slept
25:09
-on Philadelphia -based artist that the city
25:12
needs to know about. Alissa DeFranchetti. DeFranchetti.
25:19
She finished her MFA at PAFA last year. Wow.
25:24
Yeah. So yeah, she's an artist, I think, a Philadelphia
25:27
-based artist. I think people should keep an
25:29
eye out for her. We'll link her in the show notes.
25:31
I cannot think of a single person I've ever met
25:34
right now, but I think the Philadelphia Sketch
25:37
Club is a underrepresented, but a really cool
25:41
place with a lot of great artists. Didn't they
25:43
just have a gala? They did over the weekend,
25:47
yeah. Do you want to take the last one? Yes,
25:48
this is one of my favorites. I'll use them to
25:50
dig a little special, if you will. Set the scene.
25:53
The PMA is on fire and you have the superpower
25:56
to save one piece. Which one are you saving?
25:59
All right, I'll give the classic Philly answer,
26:01
the Calder. So if you go through the modern wing,
26:04
it is tucked in the back corner. It is basically
26:07
a room of scribble. We know exactly what you're
26:10
talking about. It is my favorite room to sit
26:11
in, in the museum, and these canvases are...
26:15
Are you talking about the dark room? No, no,
26:17
no. No, no, no. Opposite side. No. The tie, um...
26:22
Tie someone. Tie, uh, Sombley. The side, no,
26:25
the side. The side, Sombley. Yes. And it's like...
26:28
all of the Roman and Greek stories told in these
26:33
beautiful giant canvases. And I think it's one
26:36
piece. So that whole room. I love it. At first
26:39
I thought you were talking about the, um, the
26:42
Dushan, the Dushan, the Dushan black room that
26:45
I won't let my sons in. It's a cool room. Unfortunately,
26:49
not my top piece. Thank you all so much for joining
26:54
us today. Thank you so much. Thank you for the
26:56
conversation. Thank you. It was fun. Robert,
27:10
what was the phrase they used? Buy it off the
27:12
wall, grab it and take it? Pay and dash? Pay
27:16
and go? Pay and go? Something. Don't grab and
27:19
dash. Yes. in their group show, you're allowed
27:22
to pay for the art and take the art that very
27:26
day, which is usually not what you're allowed
27:30
to do, right? Usually the show's gotta be the
27:32
show for the length, and then you take the piece
27:34
afterwards, as we have learned. But there are
27:38
other circumstances, especially when we were
27:41
talking to... Natalie Hope McDonald. Last week
27:45
where she said that someone from New York was
27:48
in Pi Gallery, loved one of her pieces, wanted
27:51
to buy it, and then took it that night. Before
27:53
we get into this weekend's picks, Robert, can
27:57
you give us... all the deets about the event
27:59
that you and I are hosting at the Print Center.
28:02
Let's break this down. What's the what, Lucinda?
28:04
The what is Emerging Collectors Night, where
28:07
we will hear from the artists themselves about
28:11
how to care for art and how to form a coherent
28:16
collection. It's really an evening of education.
28:21
No pressure. No pressure. education and learning
28:24
from the artists, from the gallerists on how
28:28
you can start to build your collection. Robert,
28:33
tell us about The When. The When is going to
28:37
