Each month, The Carla Podcast extends the thoughtful, critical conversation started by its parent publication, Contemporary Art Review Los Angeles. Rather than simply interviewing famous names, this series digs into the real textures of artistic life and labor in the city. You’ll hear from artists in their studios, curators navigating institutional challenges, and the wide ecosystem of creatives whose work defines the region's visual and cultural pulse. These are detailed, meandering talks that go beyond promotional chatter to explore process, theory, and the personal realities of building a life in art. It’s a companion to the quarterly print magazine and online journal, offering a more intimate, auditory layer to their mission of expanding dialogue. For anyone curious about the forces shaping contemporary art in Los Angeles-from the ground up-this podcast provides essential, nuanced perspective directly from the people making it happen. Tune in for a monthly dose of genuine reflection and behind-the-scenes insight that complicates and enriches the understanding of a famously dynamic art scene.
