Andy was the best. Also liked the explicit guy a lot. Sometimes what we see is “challenging “, but if I had the wall space, I could enjoy it. Chill and enjoy the dog days!
Absolutely love your videos. Thanks for all you do to bring art to those of us in places where it can be difficult to find interesting galleries. I love your fashion style also
Thank you for the video. Art galleries in New Your City are things of legend to me. I've never been in one before. The painting at 16:52 is my favorite.
Many thanks for all your videos Mary. Personal, warm and responsive to all kinds of art and exhibitions. Your journeys are always enjoyable and illuminating and for someone living on Dartmoor in the far west of England (way out in the sticks!) it’s so nice to see what’s happening from afar . Have a good summer
Thank you so much for these videos. It’s like having a knowledgeable friend show me around. I like the smooth flow of the videos too. And the soft music that doesn’t interfere with your talking. Enjoy the summer!
I watch your videos all the time! I’d love to see Chicago. I live in Iowa and recently moved here from DE. I’m an artist and would love to see Chicago but right now I’m not financially able to. Thanks!
I would like to see more sculpture. Not too far from New York City are two great sculpture galleries: Storm King Art Center and Art Omi. You might also consider a stop at Opus 40 while touring the Hudson River Valley. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences with us. I have really enjoyed your videos over the years.
Saw Miss Mary walking north on Lafayette St toward Astor Pl. (by the Public Theatre) taking in this beautiful spring day around 5:30 pm. You looked like you just stepped out of one of your videos. Lol. Would have said hello but it took me second to realize it was you after you past. Anyway enjoy the summer. Great show by Jim Dine at Daniel Templon. 87 and he's still cranking out amazing work. Also some stunning blown (imploded) glass work at HB381 (lower Broadway). I would suggest you check Mana Arts in Jersey City for one of your Fall editions. The open studios are really a fun hang and they have a great permanent collection of Warhols as well as a large gallery of Richard Meiers architectural models. Well worth a visit.
If you ask, Mary Lynn Please visit the Uffizi in Florence...i think you would make a great tour of an art that is going to come back stronger than ever before! It would also make a great mix...Thanks for askin'!
For a bit of variety I would like to see some drawing related spaces smthg at the Drawing Center or the Menil collection or anywhere where there are a range of drawings.
Have a good summer and I look forward to your fall return. This Sept I will be checking out galleries I have been researching in Manila Philippines. Your vlogs have really inspired me. Keep up the good work.
Hey Mary, It's always nice to see you! your videos are really illuminating! how does one start the "Business Art", once they have a loads of paintings and more themes and ideas to work on? Please be my guiding light🙏 Happy Sunshine Summer!
Always interesting... One sad statement is what appears is the inaccessibility to some of these galleries for people with physical disabilities. Is there a directory of gallery's that are handicapped accessible??
Fred Eversley's bees wax tone circular sculpture does capture the light of that substance. I see his sculpture then has a small viewing window at the center . Interesting.
Thanks for your gallery videos, they are fun and well made. My only request would be to include at least a bit of the artists' statements in your narration, which you sometimes provide but not always. Perhaps they are not always available? In most galleries I've visited they are available somewhere, but I can understand if a statement is missing, and occasionally it doesn't really apply (like with Warhol's works, where you're better off reading about his life and approach to art).
Dear Mary, Six months ago we received a grant to build an art gallery in a very rural part of Oregon. The location, akin to the feel of the Prada Installation associated with Marfa. Also, the gallery can be transported at will by design. Our background is building factories, primarily for manufacturing custom skis and snowboards, both in fixed location and as transportable facilities. To the point, I started watching your video’s at length, both to become familiarized with your prospective on galleries and art in general. What drew your attention, a particular roof line at an LA gallery, your commentary on the “sense of space” of a gallery, your appreciation of books and of course your introduction of the artists on view. My father is a conductor, an eloquent speaker, and he often gave a brief overview of the piece, perhaps a bit of history of the composer before and during the performance. Your spoken cadence rang familiar. Many of the facets of our build out incorporate these impressions. There is a beautiful, small library and reading room. I brought the ceilings up as high as possible and then established a long dual curve to break out of the true linear of roof. Recently you entered a gallery, the door was huge, it had printed on it something to the effect, “big door, pull hard”. That entrance made an impression, also your glance backwards, how you shared that impression with the gentle person filming- I slanted our entrance door 5 degree's inward and reconfigured it as a slider to present largess. The envelope cladding, it’sT6 aluminum alloy, water jet cut in a chevron pattern overlaying roof sheeting crushed and flattened, with the backhoe, over the local gravel and plant matter. Kristin and I had built a restaurant not too dissimilar in nature, House in the Fields, so when we were at Hauser and Wirth, LA, we swirled around the kitchen and restaurant. That component were building in. Kristins culinary background is extensive, so we’ll incorporate these arts within the space but not as suspect. It’s not about everything, the gallery, it’s about something. So the point of all this, would you consider answers to a few questions, if not, let me finish by simply saying with deep gratitude; thank you, and when your accompanied, to your videographer as well. But if inclined, there’s only two question that I’d venture to burden you with. I’m perplexed, about the arts, not their relevance to meaning and understanding and expression, but as to relevance or rather making the realm relevant, integrated, summoned as an emotional intellectual advantage, a sage advisor in the growth of the person. Your videos, you, seemingly capture this sentiment. But I am not of this cloth, or feel nearly corrupted to weave as such. Why, do you? Is there something deeply felt, found, given, thought, encourage to unfold, that is compelling you to connect the realm to us.? Of the gallery build, have you any off the cuff suggestion, insights that can thread through the space? As I said, there is no compelling reason to go beyond just reading this note, I am content in looking forward to your next season. Might you consider Japan, a destination? 8:11 Michael@communityskis.com communityfabrication.com/
I thoroughly enjoy your videos. I’m interested to know if any of New York City’s art schools have galleries. What kind of work are current students making? What’s engaging them subject wise?
Thank you for your work throughout the year. You brought to us all exhibit after exhibit, many of which I would go see after I saw the work on your channel first. I do, however, have an unpopular belief. For me, American art was at its apex from 1948 - 1980's. Most exhibits today are "issue" oriented, pictorial illustrations of ideas. Figure and ground does nothing new. Paint is used in a quasi-abstract expressionist manner or used like crayons in a coloring book. Give me DeKooning, Twombly, and Guston. The last painter I've seen that was truly confounding was Neo Rauch. What's changed is that the proliferation of art galleries gives more voices a chance to shout, even though the work is mediocre. On the flip side, pluralism has its own rewards... yawn.
Possible future exhibitions: smaller galleries in NYC; major galleries in other US cities (D.C., Philadelphia, Menil Collection); Tate galleries in UK; galleries in Tokyo. That is your videos become like the “Lost Planet” art guides to cities. Thanks for your very helpful videos.
Can anyone tell me if the art world is completely shut down now in July in NY? I am hoping to visit galleries but don't want to come if the galleries are closing for the summer?
I appreciate Warhol, but it’s a sad state of affairs when he’s the best painter in the video. I’m not an art technique/ virtuoso snob, but the world of canvas painting Is so pretentious and indulgent. Just because a canvas is oversized, doesn’t mean the painter can paint sloppy paintings of sensational images, and call the work original. It’s not avant-garde. It’s actually kitsch pretending to be original. The result is cheese. I wish more artist painted better. I don’t mean painting photorealistic landscapes or still life paintings, I mean better as in “ground breaking.” It seems like modern painters try their best to paint like crap to shock viewers, all in the name of being sensational and edgy. It’s actually very kitsch to paint badly in the modern era. Screen prints of cartoon puppy dogs painted on wood blocks?! What?! The worst part is the gallery scene enables this and the more gallery shows I see, the more I realize the art scene is curated by half-wits who couldn’t recognize genius even if they were force fed “unsolicited artist submissions” directly to their email. I love watching your videos though. You do an outstanding job showing galleries to those who can’t see it live. Your great videos are the reason I subscribed and look forward to each one your posts! Thank you for your channel ! 😊
Something's wrong here: Andy Warhol was never a business artist. He was a clever man who knew how to handle the media and what role he had to play. But the business side he left completely in the hands of experienced people like Ivan Karp and Leo Castelli.
Kiewer a style very like black style i mean with some african contsmination . Colorful original a bit metaphisical and abstract but very nice. Levine he is too many things together. This guy who lived in paris french style european influence. 2 floor the Classic geometrical style. Itslian looks like yes objects designer. But he is trying to get his own style and Mood.

Good for you !!! Take that break, enjoy ! Thank you, for your commitment. Go wander!
Have a great summer. Will miss you. Your vids are the highlights of my week.
Thank you for the video. Art galleries in New Your City are things of legend to me. I've never been in one before. The painting at 16:52 is my favorite.
Today, in the digital age..Andy's work just looks better, so fresh, so curent, still cool !! Love it.
MLB, what a joy UR. Thanks yet again. Civilized. U make the world a little bit better. CU in the fall, and Keep safe.
Andy Warlhol is a visionary, he's my idol!!!

Thank you for this video, have a great summer time😊
Thank you! You too!
Thanks for that Mary. Good vid. Nice to see the Warhol stuff at the beginning, I love his quotes about the business of art. ❤❤😊😊

Hi Mary, I love your approach to art and the stye of your videos.
I would suggest you to visit Milano and find some nice galleries 👌🏻
Thank you!
Always interesting... One sad statement is what appears is the inaccessibility to some of these galleries for people with physical disabilities.
Is there a directory of gallery's that are handicapped accessible??
I would like to see Belgium and Paris galleries please⭐
Hi. Great channel! There's a lot to be said about things, on this planet, but I will not say it here, I would rather paint them. Enjoy the Summer!
Hello Mary. Have a wonderful day. When I was in Washington DC there museum was very nice. So, if you can yhat would be nice.

Mary Lynn, do you ever visit Chicago galleries? Those are on my bucket list.
Saw the show by Cathy Josefowitz! Such great works! Real discovery

Could you hit some galleries in Chicago sometime?
Enjoy your summer.
Would love to see more Berlin galleries.
The local art galleries in Pensacola, Florida.
You should visit Crystal Bridges in Arkansas !
I'm inspired by Martino Gamper’s work, I saw 100 Chairs in 100 Days in London years ago. He seems to be channelling some Maarten Baas with the vases.
The summer just started, come on !
"Found art" is the category of objects presented by Levine.
I thoroughly enjoy your videos. I’m interested to know if any of New York City’s art schools have galleries. What kind of work are current students making? What’s engaging them subject wise?
🤩🤩🤩
Love it. MNY TKX
Let visit Bali gallery ❤

With respect, the Warhol’s are screen prints on canvas … not paintings in the purest sense.
Calvin had his one-trick-pony moment, time to quit or coin a new style.
I appreciate Warhol, but it’s a sad state of affairs when he’s the best painter in the video. I’m not an art technique/ virtuoso snob, but the world of canvas painting Is so pretentious and indulgent.

From Spain ❤❤❤
Are you artist too?
Berlin Art Galleries would be nice
thanks always good but not exciting… sleepy music
San Francisco
That Warhol-derived stuff is HORRIBLE and embarrassing.
Andy always makes me feel better about my work.
It's all horrible and embarrassing
Where is arts here,
Wharol is in modern art what elton john is in pop music. A Genius a brand a style almost unique.. here you get some of his most important works.
Kiewer a style very like black style i mean with some african contsmination . Colorful original a bit metaphisical and abstract but very nice. Levine he is too many things together. This guy who lived in paris french style european influence. 2 floor the Classic geometrical style. Itslian looks like yes objects designer. But he is trying to get his own style and Mood.
there is an artist in japan asuka irie check out her works
they are jappy but she is good
Thank you ❤
