Stacying [Stay-see-ing] verb the act of conversing, dealing, loving, shaping, laughing, teaching, and being taught in a way that is distinctly, uniquely, incredibly Stacy. And that’s the premise of our show; Stacy doing what Stacy does with the artists she works with at her gallery. Candidly conversing with creators- on what inspires them, on what their process looks like, on what segments of pop culture they secretly indulge in. Mixing the sacredness of art with the profanity of van chit chats, Stacy is our liaison into an artist’s mind to find out maybe they aren’t so different from us, the unrefined masses, after all. All over food, wine and most importantly- cafecito.
Each episode will start at Conde Contemporary, our home base, with our familiars Stacy and Andres. We zero in on a specific work of art hung at the Gallery. Stacy will intro one of her artists by their art and then we meet them in the flesh. We follow their day with Stacy, driving around Miami to visit their studio. After, they take Stacy to a wind-down of their choosing. An Argentinian cafe, a small wine bar, someplace our artist is comfortable, casual, civilian. As the day goes on an intimacy will be built, barriers will come down. The conversations will delve into the art- obviously, who they are as artists- even more so, but the crux will be to find out who they are as people. Casual conversations with artists. Pretentious postures left at the door.
