- Jenny Saville celebrates her exhibition "Elpis" at Gagosian New York with painter Nathaniel Mary Quinn and historian Simon Schama, with a performance by the Aaron Diehl Trio, who will play music by Philip Glass as well as a new composition inspired by the work on view.
In her new series of monumental portraits, Saville explores the human face and body, producing bold and sensuous impressions of surface, line, and mass. Painting from photographs, she magnifies individual features, employing expressive brushstrokes to create dramatic juxtapositions of color and light that recall Byzantine icons and mosaics. Titled after the ancient Greek personification of hope left behind in Pandora’s box, the paintings in "Elpis" are grounded in tangible reality while reaching toward myth.
In this episode, Quinn takes viewers on a walkthrough of Saville’s exhibition, sharing his enthusiasm for the craft of painting and the power of the artist’s vision. With Schama, Saville explores the broader cultural context of her work. And the Aaron Diehl Trio performs the composer’s Études nos. 2 and 16-compositions selected by Saville as communicating a vitality and uplift that resonates with her own practice-as well as “Prism,” a new piece written by Diehl in response to Saville’s paintings.

Sublime!
A fantastic painter and wonderful use of the materials. But love her full figures best.
Beautiful
beautiful! are the musicians performing IN the gallery?
i love his enthusiasm while he describes her work!
What a relief that a woman painter is approved of by so many men,and they can all explain it to us ,in case we dont get it with our eyes.
너무너무 좋은 작품.
Brilliant.
GOOD ART
Great paintings and interpretation. Not sure why you used Philip Glass music. Surely Shelley Hirsch improvising to the paintings would have been great? But this series of films are brilliant.
Totally stunning....
super art
Who decided these were renowned? They look like some artist from Etsy
She is absolutely amazing

Incredible! And I'm especially in awe of how you painted a self-portrait in an eye!
👁️👁️😘
Pure ASMR very enjoyable, pity about her name though very unfortunate.
Temática "batida"
Is she related to jimmy savile
"that's her thang"
Sisisisisisi
excellent,,but why do we have to listen to people trying to be intellectual,Jenny Saville and Simon Schama is plenty enough. dont ruin that.
words. words about visual art. inadequate and worse.. misleading. stand in front of the painting--in person--feel it. no referential descriptions. nevertheless, of course one does appreciate... his APPRECIATION.

Hi
Eclectic fresh, humility, measure of i,lacks *((**

Jenny Saville is incredibly overrated. She's really an illustrator, making dull photo realistic paintings with more viscous pigment. These new portraits look like kitschy student Art. Nathaniel Mary Quinn's own work is far more interesting.
I don't LOVE her work myself (I LIKE it, cuz it's obv good), but tbh your comment sounds like jealousy, I don't like saying bad things about someone's art, cuz I feel like people who do that, are either egotistical and think that they are better (which means that they definitely suck, and maybe they tried drawing but were never good as a kid and so took the "abstract" route) OR they romanticize art to the point where it becomes a religion. I paint, it's paint on canvas, that's it. We gotta stop intellectualizing art. A splash of paint isn't a comment on life or death blah blah, and a painting of a woman is a two dimensional illusion of a three dimensional form on a flat surface, it's kinda like magic, that's what it is. The subjects can mean something, sure, but cmon. Sure her work looks OK, I agree with you on that. But, it's not bad. I live in New York, go to any gallery if you wanna see bad art skills lol or go to any art school. I've never had an art Professor who had ANY skill. The Professors teaching how to draw, cannot draw. The professors teaching how to paint, cannot paint. So, when I see some skill or talent, I appreciate it, instead of shitting on it. Cuz tbh that's what those art professors do, and that's cuz they cannot do it themselves. I hope you're talented, then my point won't apply to you. But, I do agree, her work is not that great, but it is still great. And that's not even photo realism, I don't agree with you on that, it's impressionistic realism, with a lot of abstraction. Nonetheless, it's great work, she isn't doing something that's easy.
Ik!?p
Mmm m
Agree
Agree yes, is illustration.
I care nothing of the black man
He’s cares nothing for you
@@radicalthoughts well then we are even and happy then party on
A load of rubbish
They look like mall paintings. Maybe because they are so many imitating her, the style turned against her.
What a load of crap
Am so sorry Jenny but this is not painting, this is illustration (like the pictures in some old magazines). Most of the people are amateurs or just art lovers and they dont know what is what. You know the differences right? PS. Dont waste so many good oil colors (i see lots of Harding, Old Holland Winsor etc) send some of those to us dear. PS 2 (Nathaniel go to art school again, you dont know nothing about art but you are good in public relation).
The best painters are RUclips writers.
