never heard of James Kalm before but he has put together a nice little tour with a continuous sensitive observant narrative as he unobtrusively floats through the gallery. nicely done and did not stay longer than necessary looking for something that was not there. same amount of time i would have spent if i were there in person. thank you, i'll subscribe
I do find some connection to these works. There is subtle variations in the works that are interesting. However, I kind expect more from an artist of his significance. Maybe I am being unfair, but there seems to be something missing. On the other hand, this guy has survive decades in the art world and people have found meaning with his work. Thanks James and Kate. Chris
James, love your show reviews. Please SLOW DOWN on the pans of the paintings close up. About half the speed, or a quarter would allow the camera to focus, and my eyes to actually see some of the cool paint there. Thanks again, for all your do!!
You make a good point about his skill with acrylic - I would have guessed oils because of the variation in texture and lovely tones because, as you say, one can often pick acrylic for its plastic-y result.
@@1111122234 oh well, there's plenty of 'artists' about, isn't there - somehow it sounds a bit odd to mention it. If you want to see, my paintings are at www.VeryValerieEllis.com
Thanks! these look good. Any chance you will catch the new MoMa show Feb. 8th "A World of Its Own: Photographic Practices in the Studio" ?? I believe it's Quentin Bajac's first exhibition. I know you've done some coverage on photography (Cindy Sherman) was wondering if you had this on your to-see list. Cheers!
This is one of Larry's best shows, post mixed-media works. Besides Resnick, most of Poons' paintings during this period have a whiff of (well, to me) some of the big guns- Pollock's 'Sounds in the Grass' collection, and one of his last paintings ('Scent'). Also Lee Krasner's stuff ('Icarus' comes to mind), and maybe Joan Mitchell. There seems to be a conscious decision to fill up the canvas by placing the painted gestures next to each other, without too much 'crossing-over' .
tubeberk08 I don't know the price range, but I know my paintings are cheaper. www.saatchiart.com/account/profile/84605 I am trying to paint like Larry.
+tubeberk08 Thanks Cliff. My prices were 2 or 3 times higher. Didn't work. I am thinking about spamming my website over all the youtube art videos.....what do you think?
About a decade back I videoed a great empassioned hour talk he gave at a Molly Barnes brown paper bag luncheon event in the Roger Smith Hotel penthouse up on Lex.
Exhausted of this effect of crowding minutia of impressions onto a canvas with no discretion.Cecily Brown comes to mind. What I'm suggesting : have more patience and edit and simplify.
A great body of works. Thank you, Kate.
I really like this "phase" of Poon's work. Lots of motion, yet somehow peaceful. Excellent show, thanks.
I could see some recognizable figures and still life type stuff in his works. Pretty interesting show. Thanks James.
Great Respect for Master Larry Poons !!!
I love these. Thanks Kate.
Perhaps, the most underrated site out there.
I love these works. They remind me of some of Milton Resnick's paintings. Oh....just heard you think the same!
Thank you! I just saw his stuff in the HBO doc and I love it.
Thank you Kate, thank you everybody.
Larry Poons is a very good artist.
those poons' canvases are gold

I love your descriptions
Thanks Joe, I'm not very articulate, so these "narratives" are just stream of consciousness blather from a paint-head...
Great vid! Inspiring!
Just fantastic!!

I agree. Poons is one of all time favorite artist. Any updates on your trip to NYC?
@@1111122234 not yet but working on it. I'm looking for a gallery to take-up my own artwork.
@@ValerieEllis Oh thats wonderful. You did not mention you where an artist last time we communicated. I would love to see your art.

An anarchic minimalist, as the color fields shrink, so a multi-verse discourse of Lockean color forms comes into view.
The best job done in this gallery is the floor.

merci .votre travail me plait beaucoup.
Thanks Loren I wouldn't have been able to see LP's work otherwise.......
I'm wondering if I see finger painting here too, along with brush strokes?
very underrated
JK... these are gorgeous paintings, cool color passages and seductive! Do you recall what price range they were selling?... thanks.

+Karl Skaret not bad, you should charge 2 or 3 times more, honestly. Sometimes higher price will attract more serious buyers...im not a collector.

Dense beauty
constant movement makes us seasick while trying to see a static image.

This is Literally garbage...something one would see at a dump before the scavengers showup. Can almost smell the rotting protein.
Thank you Kate, thank you everybody.
