John Bell: Artist & Designer - Epi. 260, Host Dr. Mark Sublette

I do this podcast because the people I meet in my line of work
are really interesting. That's a lot of it. John Bell is exactly
the kind of podcast I love doing because he's not somebody you
can just throw into a typical mold and say, oh he's an artist or
he's an art dealer. You know?

John is an Academy Award-nominated individual who's worked on
movies like Back to the Future Two, Men in Black, and Jurassic
Park. All are culturally significant, yet they'd be incomplete
without the influence of John Bell.

That's not all he's done, however. John also worked for Atari,
General Motors, Nike, and Electronic Arts. You know, just a few
small companies.

So it's the story of perseverance to some extent, and how you can
start off as one thing (in his case a car designer) and end up in
a completely different area. that being said, they have this
unique kind of symmetry and rhythm that becomes clear on his
journey and in his artwork.

This is a great podcast documenting the very interesting journey
of artist and designer John Bell.
