Cultural entrepreneur and all-round pop icon, Pharell Williams continues his intricate series of ARTST TLK – last episode saw Ben Mezrich and Andy Greenberg discuss the Illuminati and social media – which features special guests in their career, sharing their own philosophies, ideas and inspirations. Inviting to the table two hugely influential characters who normally sit on polarized ends of the art scene, this get-together sees American postmodern art pioneer David Salle and street artist turned renowned graphic sculptor KAWS compare and contrast their own experiences. The meaningful discourse draws on to substantial topics on the definition of art, KAWS’ early painting experiences and – just as a naked hostess decides to stroll through to lighten up the volume – critics’ accusation of Salle’s work as pornography.
