    She inspires me the most out of all artists shes the one that sticks with me . The way she articulates how it feels to build a painting and how its visualised is just pure and real . I love her

    Beautiful art and explanation of it. I'm not a fan of contemporary art but hers is life like a human being sentient and with conscious

    Every time when I see her work in a museum, I had to spend at least 30 minutes to an hour to look at it because of the complexity and layers of histories as well as time that she combined them into one oversize work of art. I often look at sketchy, smeared ink against the bold lines running crisscross each other as though I was going through a labyrinth of time - added that, let there be light on her canvas! She's one of my favorite modern artists of all times.

      Yeah...except artists these days are forced to give interviews and do artist's talks or no funding and no career. Now being an artist is being a brand. Just not talking isn't as easy as you might think

    I dont see any Real opposition between the socalled figurative and abstract - i am convinced that all interesting art comes from an experience of a poetic of a moment - but human experience is truly multilayered and many ways of sharing an experience is possible and a dialoque between an art piece and a viewer ( sometimes the artist) is also multilayerd with many possibilities - and I see it as a deep communication going on between all what happensaround the event of look at art and reflect on art - its attractive in many ways because it opens into meetings with life in surprizing ways - its always about relating to the pure picture nomatter what technique or style it is always about the wonder of being open to what is

    I respect her art but prefer less talk and more silence.The Agnes Martin interview. 1997? had a profound effect on my own artistic career

    • @aquelpibe
      @aquelpibe 2 года назад

      I agree. Visual artists often cannot put in words what they do. I like her work but listening to this interview did not add much to my appreciation of it.

    Did anyone see her body language when she is walking. ??? I think she is unable to work abstract on a white canvas.

  • @ArgostheCreeper
    @ArgostheCreeper 3 года назад +2

    She basically puts her stuff on other people's art and calls it hers.

    There is no real abstract art that is not musical, and if your art is musical it tends to lean against pictures . And it is not very serious. If it has no humour, it means you are not serious. The natural state of the mind is formless/abstract. The mind sometimes tries to focus on abstraction, but it can't be done. If you focus on something with your mind you are focusing on something, not nothing. Drawing on a photo is stupid and wrong. You start out abstract and end up with an abstraction. Turners paintings are abstractions. Artists that cant talk cant paint. Composers that cant talk cant compose. When I Listen to music I hear the voice. If you don't start abstract you draw a line, a drawing. Music is also lines. Text is lines. Reflections are not lines. Don't reflect. Don't be a parasite.

    Why does she have to have a narrative in abstraction? Identity art? Really. I think it's visual poetry and as such doesn't require an explanation. I see the arch. Drafting as male and the intuitive expressiinistic marks as female. Or ying and yang. Right and left brain. Order and chaos. Conscious, unconscious. A paradox. East and west.

    • @gptgod
      @gptgod 6 лет назад +1

      It seems that youve formed a narrative/ explanation yourself, dont you think?
      As intelligent beings its near impossible to not draw some sort of explanation even if the work is holistically non objective. My interpretation is that from far it appears as an abstract and up close it becomes a series of realist conceptions. As to say that this world is nature/ spirit based (abstract) but there are earthly/ human intrusions (architectural drafting) that never quite overcome the abstract world around us. A hopeless grasp for power that only ends in humans destroying humans (incidents such as the revolution is Cairo she spoke of). Shes trying to capture that "in between space".

      Dave!! that is so funny,you broke down her work better quicker and more concise than the "artist" herself aka "oriental scroll fauder over blue prints" ever could,even if you left a hidden hot mic ON somewhere in her "dome fro" for the rest of her life without her knowing.
      I can't wait till she evolves her "Abstract" style into "Islamic Religious Fauder" over x-rays of young "Female Virgins" (not named Mary)
