Book Launch: "Two Artists Talking"
Book Launch Party: April 3, 2026 from 5 to 7pm
This event is free and open to the public
Two Artists Talking invites you into the studios, art, and lives of established Boston area artists. In this collection of interviews, Boston artists dive deep into the meaning behind their practice, materials and technique, challenges in their lives, and getting their work seen.
Two Artists Talking is a special limited edition artist book of interviews with Boston-area artists: Danielle Abrams, Ria Brodell, David Antonio Cruz, Daniela Rivera, Brooke Stewart, Jamal Thorne, Deb Todd Wheeler and Yu-Wen Wu. The interviews were conducted by students attending School of the Museum of Fine Arts (SMFA) at Tufts University who visited the artists’ studios to inquire about meaning, materials, process, and career strategy. Their conversations serve as evidence that there are no right answers in how to navigate life and career as an artist.
Two Artists Talking was designed and edited by artists McCall Hollister, Eva Lundsager, and Cassidy Westjohn. The interviews were conducted by artists Elizabeth Blessing, McCall Hollister, Maddie Kelly, Sally Lee, Felipe Lopez, Eva Lundsager, Marek Modzelewski, and Cassidy Westjohn. An earlier unpublished version of the book was designed by Mrudhubhashini Vijayakumar.
Two Artists Talking will be available for purchase, and artists Ria Brodell, Daniela Rivera, Brooke Stewart, Jamal Thorne, Deb Todd Wheeler, and Yu-Wen Wu will be signing books.
