EP. 41 - in conversation with chief curator of Wende Museum in Los Angeles, Joes Segal.
Upon visiting California (U. S.) Patrycja speaks to historian and curator Joes Segal about the history and programming of the Wende Museum. The Wende is an art museum, cultural center, and archive of the Cold War that explores social, political, and cultural change.
The conversation revolves around the value of Soviet artifacts, the power of art in understanding the complexities of history, as well as contemporary ways of speaking about the broadly defined - socialist art.
