Even in her earliest days as a photographer and an artist growing up in Santa Fe, Cassandra Sohn knew that she would open a fine art gallery. Just as she had a passion for her own evolving work as a photographer, shifting from editorial and commercial to fine art, she was incredibly inspired by the work of others. Sohn Fine Art is no stuffy gallery. It’s a living, breathing space where artwork comes alive and artists are supported through workshops and more. We cover a lot of ground in this episode, including Cassandra’s own artistry, including her two publications of photography, her move to the Berkshires some years ago, NFTs and how they are impacting the art world, Cassandra’s philosophy background and schooling at St. John’s College, the fine art of selling fine art, the community of Lenox, Mass. and the local creative economy, curating at Chesterwood with outdoor mixed media work, how water has inspired her artwork, being a Mother and how her daughter is picking up some of her Mom’s skills as an artist and businessperson, and the Black Crowes at Tanglewood.  I hope you’ll enjoy my conversation with Cassandra Sohn. — Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/john-krol/support
