Posted by Amanda Faraone, Oct 17, 2019


Amanda Faraone

So often, as marketers and communicators, we are focused on the immediate future of our organization and can’t get the perspective we need to see the bigger story that we are not telling, the one that informs every aspect of the arts ecosystem: how the broader public views the arts.

4 Ways to Build Stronger Customer Relationships Through Transparency

Consistency builds trust, deepens relationships, exposes customer challenges, and sparks innovation. Inconsistency results in confusion and distrust.

One way to be consistent is by communicating openly, honestly and with complete transparency.
Far too often, companies are only transparent when owning up to a negative action or righting a wrong so customers don’t run for the door. Time and again, this approach has proven to be ineffective. Customer retention is achieved only if a company has a history of putting the customer first, through both the good and the bad.

Isamu Noguchi’s Voluntary Stay in a Japanese-American Incarceration Camp

The modernist sculptor voluntarily entered one of the many incarceration camps for Japanese Americans and it was an experience that deeply impacted him.

Friday, March 17, 2017

In 1941, Isamu Noguchi was living in Los Angeles, sculpting portrait busts for Hollywood stars while getting increasingly acquainted with the rich and famous. Then the attack on Pearl Harbor happened — and five months later, the Japanese-American artist was residing in the incarceration camp of Poston, Arizona, enduring unforgiving dry heat, afternoon dust storms, and bouts of despair. His entry, unlike that of the other prisoners, was voluntary: as a resident of New York, Noguchi was not subject to Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Executive Order 9066 that forced those of Japanese background living on the West Coast to guarded camps further inland; but as an activist who felt he had responsibilities to fellow Nisei and Issei whose lives were torn asunder, he envisioned using his art to at least improve their living conditions.

A Performance in Queens Got Right What That Pepsi Ad Got Wrong

A performance in Queens, drew a very different audience and packed a punch to the gut, rather than the wallet.

Tuesday, April 18, 2017

 In Venice, collectors ogled and Instagrammed their way through Damien Hirst’s splash back into the center of art-world attention—a massive, for-sale museum show spanning François Pinault’s Palazzo Grassi and Punta della Dogana, where a single, barnacled sculpture can reportedly run you north of $5 million. A performance in Queens, however, drew a very different audience—the parents, friends, and children of some 350 members of the community that took the stage—and packed a punch to the gut, rather than the wallet.

A zoom-in on the strange and sublime art of Street View, which turns ten years old this week.

Thursday, May 25, 2017

On May 25, Google Street View celebrated its 10th anniversary. What was meant as a more realistic way for users to view cities and towns around the world turned into a source of inspiration for numerous artists over the years. Whether creating hyperlapse videos to take viewers on a virtual roadtrip, or using the images to send a message about the interactions between humans and technology, artists have embraced this simple feature and used their creativity to mold and shape it into various forms of art.
