This playlist goes under the influence and explores the network of inspiration amongst artists.  In conversation and often in admiration of each other’s approach and expression—erhaps leading to a collaboration or simply a workflow—everyone is encouraged to find guidance through an artist that speaks to their own sensibilities. “Just to see what sculpture can do,” says Liz Larner in admiration of Tony Smith’s “Smoke” (1967), “this I think is probably one of the greatest examples of that ever.”

The artists in this playlist strike a balance between fact and fiction in their reimagining of historical moments, reinterpreting the past in the interest of finding clarity for the present and beyond.
