COLLECTOR MEETS ARTISTS

Rare and revealing dialogues

An “accidental collector” is how Walter L Meyer describes himself. He explains how over several decades he simply acquired art that appealed to him from artists all over the world.

Most of the time that was accomplished without ever meeting the creators. Until these conversations, most of which occurred via Zoom. (And sometimes decades after Walter purchased their art.)

In these fascinating dialogues, the artists share a variety of stories.

Stories about creative process, tradition v. innovation, the impact of events both historic and mundane, personal identity, and the intersection of academic discipline and artistic practice.
