The second segment on this week’s Modern Art Notes Podcast features artist Roy Dowell talking about works he’s showing in “Made in LA 2012,” the Hammer biennial.

Among the works we discuss is the work that the Hammer and LAXART installed as a billboard on Culver City’s La Cienega Boulevard. For a larger image of the work from which the billboard was born, click here.

Dowell is the chairman of the graduate fine arts department at the Otis College of Art and Design. His work is in the collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, MOCA, the Hammer and the Berkeley Art Museum.
