Meeting Mirella

Season 2: Within and Beyond Our Gallery Walls | Episode 2—Join
host Hannah Avalos as she talks to current Pomona College student
Sam Chan and former Pomona art history professor Frances K. Pohl
about the Italian artist and visual poet Mirella Bentivoglio.
Chan and Pohl describe their different encounters with the
artist: Chan recently discovered her work through independent
research, while Pohl had a long-standing personal relationship
with the artist. The two reveal how Bentivolgio, featured in the
exhibition In Our Care, created works that capture lived
experience and critique issues like capitalism and feminism, all
with wit and subtle humor. Original music composed by Jake
Turner. Transcript https://bit.ly/3ts32jG
