Episode 11 - Raymond Elman
Raymond Elman is an American artist, publisher, editor, and writer. While he has had a very successful career as an artist, we are talking to him today about why he created an online video art publication platform which has already featured (500) video conversations with some of the most interesting and accomplished people from the art world. The videos are produced in short segments so that you immediately get right to the point of the conversation. The production will captivate you.
First called Inspicio in 2014, its name was changed to ArtSpeak last year. It was easier to pronounce and remember.
ArtSpeak is sponsored by the Lee Caplin School of Journalism & Media in The College of Communication, Architecture + The Arts at Florida International University in Miami.
Ray earned two degrees, a BS (1967) and an MBA (1968) from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. While attending UPenn, Ray took all of the studio art courses he could schedule. After graduating from Penn, he moved to Greenwich Village in New York City, where he took studio art courses at New York University (NYU) and met his mentor Knox Martin (1923-2022). Martin motivated Ray to “give up his day job” and move to the Provincetown art colony.
When Ray was living in the Provincetown area on the northern tip of Cape Cod from 1970 to 2012, he co-founded Provincetown Arts magazine with Christopher Busa in 1985. The magazine is still being published today.
