NFAND Episode 34 - Arnaldo J. López, Development Officer Pregones/PRTT

Arnaldo J. López is brilliant. Brilliant. His capacity to synthesize the underpinnings of almost any topic you present to him is uncanny. Now, all this brilliance I talk about, would never-ever-ever be spilled on you as condescension, which is what sets Arnaldo apart. Truly. Anyone that knows him will tell you that it’s so. And, one of the reasons I simply love him. He is dear to my heart for that and more...

I can bounce ideas off him and he takes them in. He listens. He makes sense of them and helps you navigate towards a conversation that is filled with depth and substance. And, those who know me well know I love deep and intense. Can’t help it.

This episode is about art, culture, artists, the structures that bind, build, and help the field stay afloat. We go deep and broad but it’s specific of the field and the reality that is creation, presentation, scale, access, identity and going at it in an ever changing financial and cultural landscape and now, a bellicose political climate.
