Radcliffe Bailey: A Special Tribute to the Life and Legacy of Radcliffe Bailey as told by friends and colleagues
Late last year, as I was ending my season, the news of Radcliffe Bailey's passing was announced and sent shockwaves throughout the art world among his friends, family, peers.
At the time, I was planning on recording an episode with Karen Comer Lowe, a long time arts professional and curator based in Atlanta. As Karen began to share with me her introduction into the art world, she mentioned the importance of Radcliffe's presence in her life and their friendship. This immediately prompted me to not only want to hear Karen reflect back and share some of the stories and memories that she had of Radcliffe, but I wanted to take the opportunity to talk to more people about his life and the incredible impact that he left on the people that he touched over the course of his lifetime.
In this episode, you'll hear testimonials from friends, colleagues, and those who considered Radcliffe family including Joeanna Bellorado-Samuels, Franklin Sirmans, Sheila Pree Bright, Trevor Schoonmaker, Sandra Jackson-Dumont, Karen Comer Lowe, Isolde Brielmaier, and Larry Ossei-Mensah. So many are mourning his loss and this is an opportunity to celebrate his life and legacy.
