  • Ep. 153: Curator Natalie Dupêcher "Janet Sobel: All Over"
    Jul 24 2024
    A conversation with Natalie Dupecher, Associate Curator of Modern Art at the Menil Collection, about the fascinating and often overlooked artist Janet Sobel. Known for her pioneering drip painting technique and “all over” aesthetic, Sobel significantly influenced the Abstract Expressionist movement, even preceding Jackson Pollock. We discuss Sobel’s artistic development, her use of unconventional materials, and her work’s bridging of surrealism to abstract expressionism. We also delve into the Menil Collection’s current exhibition, exploring key highlights, themes, and the curatorial process behind showcasing her work. “Janet Sobel: All Over” is on view at the Menil Collection in Houston through August 11.
