Abstract painter Frank Stella and remembering musician Juan Garcia Esquivel on this edition of Fresh Air. Frank Stella was first well known in the late 1950s for his Black Paintings series - striped monochrome works that helped touch off the minimalism movement. Over the years his work evolved from the canvas to colorful geometrical configurations of sculpture and architectural dimension. His 31-foot-high sculpture, Prinz Friedrich von Homburg, Ein Schauspiel was recently unveiled in front of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC.
Juan Garcia Esquivel was the icon of space age/bachelor music, producing innovative recordings of pop music in the '50s and '60s. He died in his home in Mexico on January 3 at the age of 83. In 1994 his work was reissued on the CD ESQUIVEL!: SPACE AGE BACHELOR PAD MUSIC. Fresh Air host Terry Gross speaks with Irwin Chusid, the producer of ESQUIVEL!, and Yvonne De Bourbon, one of Esquivel's ex-wives and a former performer in his live show. (Original broadcast dates: November 16, 2000, and September 7, 1994)
