We start the year in Seattle where we catch up with Marilyn Raichle who, for those with long memories, was last on the show in 2018 speaking about an exhibition called The Art of Alzheimer’s which included works by her mother Jean. Well, now Marilyn’s written a book about her ‘care partner journey’ with Jean and others. It’s called Don’t Walk Away: A Care Partner’s Journey and it’s a pretty fascinating read, as you’ll find when we chat with Marilyn.

Meanwhile, back in Melbourne at the City Gallery, we catch up with Patrick Pound for a walk and talk through his latest curated collection, The Museum of Falling where the challenge is to find the connection between the many objects on display and the various ways we think about falling.

And then finally, we’re at Arts Centre Melbourne’s Hamer Hall for a sit down with the Australian Art Orchestra’s Artistic Director, Aaron Choulai to find out about Ane Ta Abia, their collaboration with the Tatana Village Choir from Papua New Guinea who’ll be performing as part of AsiaTOPA.

They’re all on this week’s edition of Behind the Scenes with Chris Thompson right here on Vision Australia Radio.
