Behind every exhibition, gallery opening, or celebrated masterpiece, there are people whose labor makes it all possible. Art and Labor, hosted by OK Fox & Lucia Love, pulls back the curtain on the art world to focus on these essential stories. This podcast chronicles the often-overlooked efforts of social justice organizing within cultural spheres, giving voice to the collective push for dignity and fair treatment. You’ll hear from artists, of course, but also from the fabricators, registrars, janitors, docents, writers, curators, and countless others whose work forms the foundation of our institutions. Each episode centers the human cost behind the scenes, advocating for tangible change in how art is produced and presented. By weaving together history, current events, and personal narratives, the series connects the dots between art, politics, and society. Tune in for a grounded and necessary conversation that redefines what we value in culture, making this more than just a podcast-it's a resource for anyone who believes a more equitable art world is possible.
