    I'm afraid I'm late in making well wishes, but Howard left reminders for us to visit and to recall.

    My understanding of art is, you see it and you like it or not. It talks to you in a certain way or not. With Hodgkin, for me, it doesn’t work... sorry

  • @obliquefrontline9415
    @obliquefrontline9415 6 лет назад +4

    Cretins! Grow up and stop whining because Hodgkin doesnt comply with your expectations. His works have qualities nd charms that are not strictly logical. Hodgkin makes use of a creative illogic. A negative capability. He takea risks- not always successfuly but hes willing to try. Hes willing to be risk being seen as naive and immature. But Its his boldness and his playfulness that make his work so poetic and fulfilling to experience. Like it or not- Hodgkin will continue to be an important artist for a very long time.

  • @gloobnord

    Some painting, and it doesn't matter if it's abstract or figurative, is just not interesting. These paintings fall into that category in my opinion. They look as if Hodgkin is trying to imitate abstract painting, but just can't get a grip on it.

    biggest bullshit ever. without the stories these are just paintings thousand times made and seen before. and they are small, that makes it even worse. he is painting over the frame, wow. biggest idea ever and I ve seen this also before. the good old big brushstrokes...I am yawning. the ganges painting is the only acceptable one. sorry mr. hodkin.

      I am watching this channel: jameskalmroughcut
      he visits galleries etc. you can see a lot of this stuff there. of course with the stories about india and classical music etc it all seems so fancy, but without the story, just the painting as it is, doesnt look very special. ok he did the trick, that he paints the frame, but that s all. mute the video and take a look at the paintings again.

      Alexander Petrohv you seem very aggrieved. Angry at what the paintings are not rather than what they are. True- Hodgkin isnt a Turner or a Cole. His work is more simple and zen. But why get so mad when you see people treating them seriously. Chill out. Grow up.

      I like the gestural approach - for me its not about whether its seen before - of course - like Music its possible to make a moment unique by the way you are present to it - there works Seem to have a very subtile sensualitet and presenceness - I can feel them even just in cyberspace - great video

    Since about 1975 Hodgkin has produced some of the most sublime abstracts of the century.
    That said, he should have destroyed most of his output from the 50s and 60s which can be awful juvenile stuff! (one of my faves, Agnes Martin, had said the same of her early work and destroyed a lot of it - but she wished she had done all of it!)

    • @justXaXcrushX
      @justXaXcrushX 5 лет назад +1

      ThePolskiteddy 40 odd years of ‘sublime abstracts’ has to be regarded as a good innings in any man’s language. And he had to do the earlier shite to get to the good stuff. Rothko’s early figurative stuff is equally dreadful.

    This is the kind of "art" that makes the general public make fun of artists, and the art world as a whole. It's ludicrous to call this accomplished on any level. Abstract painting can be worthwhile, but this is a joke, and he knows it.
