William Sarradet talks with Brian David Johnson about his time in Austin’s robust art scene and his experience running Cloud Tree Gallery.

“There’s more art-making than there’s ever been in the history of the world and I feel like that’s only going to continue towards this notion that we’ll all be artists someday.”

I want to know more about this robust Austin Art Scene. I have out grown the “scene” in San Antonio. I’m getting out of the gallery grind here and trying to break into ways of being seen by progressive folks in the high end neighborhoods inside the loop. It’s going well but I also need to find opportunities outside the city. I read this about the “robust” Austin art scene and I’m. ready to hear more. I hope I can begin learning to navigate that climate by spending more time on Glasstire and less time on social media, lol.
