Known mostly for her “Waterfall” paintings, which are infused with an energy generated from her interest in Western and Eastern painting and philosophy, Pat Steir reveals a far more complex history as a painter in her interview with Phong Bui.

Phong Bui interviews artist Nicola López, whose wide use of a tremendous variety of media - among them intaglio, woodblock, and installation - explores notions of landscape and geography. Her work blends the cartographic with the impressionistic.

Phong Bui speaks with Dan Simon, the publisher of Seven Stories Press and a Brooklyn Rail managing and advisory board member who discusses, through wanton analogies wild and exacting, the multiple trapeze acts that the publisher must perform.
