heliumTALK - das Kunstgespräch

Jörg Heikhaus, Melvin Heikhaus

heliumTALK begann im Jahre 2016 als TV Talk-Show in der Galerie, bevor Jörg Heikhaus aka Alex Diamond im Frühjahr 2018 den gleichnamigen Podcast herausbrachte und in seinem Atelier Interviews mit Protagonisten aus der Welt der Kunst führte. Seit Anfang 2022 gibt ein neues Konzept, eine erweiterte, feste Besetzung und veränderte Inhalte: der heliumTALK ist nun ein offenes Gespräch zwischen Jörg (54) und Melvin (24) Heikhaus, zwischen Künstler und Galerist, zwischen Vater und Sohn. Mal mit Gästen, mal ohne. Immer aktuell und mit spannenden Themen - aber natürlich geht es weiterhin um Kunst. Übrigens: Während die früheren Folgen oft auch auf englisch waren, ist die neue Version in deutscher Sprache. *** heliumTALK started as a live talk show for TV in our gallery in 2016, before Jörg Heikhaus aka Alex Diamond took this format into the world of audio podcasts two years later. These interviews with people from the art world were mostly recorded in his artist studio. In 2022, heliumTALK changed its format and is now an open conversation between Jörg and the new gallerist of heliumcowboy, Melvin Heikhaus. A conversation between artist & gallerist, between father and son. Topic is still the art world. From time to time there will be guests, and other features that we will add in the future. Oh and even though this introduction is in English and most of the early podcasts are too - the new version is now held in German, mostly. read less

#91: David Shillinglaw: Psychogeography
New format, old format: In this (english) Episode, Melvin talks with artist David Shilinglaw about his new exhibition "Psychogeography" at the heliumcowboy artspace in Hamburg (Opening April 28, 6 pm, exhibition until June 16.) Meanwhile Jörg was in the countryside, digging a deep hole in his 1866 farmhouse, so this is a one-on-one between the gallerist and his artist. You can also listen to past episodes with David here at heliumtalk - this is the third time David came for a chat: Episodes #33 (February 2019) and #76 (April 2020) About David Shillinglaw: David Shillinglaw is a Margate-based artist who has made a name for himself with his distinctive blend of street art and fine art. His work is often characterised by its bold colours, intricate patterns and whimsical imagery. His art explores themes of identity and the human condition, be it a complex anatomical diagram or a simple stick figure. Drawing on ideas from ancient mythology and pop culture, the artist creates a dialogue between the historical and the contemporary. Shillinglaw often paints directly onto found objects, creating an open relationship between himself and his changing environment. Shillinglaw made his debut in Germany at heliumcowboy, in 2015, when the artist came to Hamburg for his first solo show in Germany. The show was titled Remote Control. Now, 8 years later, the artist finally comes back and will present new works with his new exhibition "Psychogeography", which deals with the concept of psychogeography.
