   Certainly a task for mod_rewrite. Here is my guess:

RewriteRule ^/artist1(.*) /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/artists/artist1$1 [t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l]

RewriteRule ^/articles(.*) /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/articles$1 [t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l]
RewriteRule ^/(.*) /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/artists/$1 [t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l]
