Jessica Fuentes speaks with Glasstire's recently appointed News Editor Nicholas Frank about growing up in Milwaukee, his artistic practice, and his writing career. “I felt right at home here... [Milwaukee and San Antonio are both] cities where the major redevelopments in the city are based on old German breweries. Both cities hinge their downtown redevelopment on the River Walk... they are both located 77 miles from the state capitol... so that determines cultural things.” See related readings here: https://glasstire.com/2025/07/27/art-dirt-getting-to-know-nicholas-frank This week’s podcast is sponsored in part by the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston. Cool down from the summer heat with CAMH's newest exhibition, "Tomashi Jackson: Across the Universe." This mid-career survey of the Houston-born artist brings together nearly a decade of work across disciplines, spanning textiles, paper, archival images, and more. Colliding histories intersect with color theory in the vibrant and multifaceted pieces that scrutinize mechanisms of societal power and recognize the triumphs for the empowerment of communities of color. The exhibition is on view through March 29, 2026, and admission to the museum is always free.
