    Beautiful coverage -- thank you. As a painter, I'm stunned to see that he works in acrylic: the quick dry time alone wouldn't seem to fit his visual style. I know of a few of his pieces close by, and will visit them this weekend to scrutinize the canvases now knowing this. Hard to get that glow in acrylics. Again, thank you -- well done.

    • @alexwilliamyt
      @alexwilliamyt 19 годин тому

      Thank you! He doesn't work exclusively in acrylics, but the majority of the time he does. In nearly all of this studio images/videos he has a bucket of water for his brushes, which he wouldn't have if using oil paints. But some of his work is a combination of both oil and acrylic.

    Fascinating video thank you very much ❤ . What an origin story ! I'm 50 & FINALLY about to set up a tiny studio in a house I'm about to move to so the confirmation here of a small space is everything I needed to hear. I've been drawing & painting since I was a toddler but my parents got killed in a car accident in Athens, Greece, when I was ten . After a neglectful abusive hair raising time I studied art for 7 years in London in my early twenties. Life got in the way, the shock of losing my parents led me to skipping my teenage years. Now I've reached a point in life where I promise myself I'm going to live like a teen for the rest of my days , creating large colourful whimsical abstracts much like these in the video as I always have, but with a new sense of focus & intention of having more exhibitions & getting professional about selling. I struggled to be parted with my work like I was trying to hang on to my parents and childhood. With life out of the way, if a disabled 95 y/o lady in a phyciatric hospital can do it ; SO CAN I ! This video gave me so much motivation, I've battled depression, addiction to alcohol had a life time of taking care of everyone around me & now I have,'me', time for the first time ever, without terrifying responsibilities so as I find myself ,'done with worrying' free from mental traumas & addiction I can take up where I left off : playing like a child for the rest of my life . I have zero fear of my mortality so nothing is in my way from taking wild risks which I always have done but without the stress of having to grow up 😂. I've just Subscribed...I loved your dialogue & I do look forward to binge watching your channel & everything you have yet to create. I feel so close to where I always wanted to be : carefree & able to play all day & all night to make up for having the world on my shoulders. My brother isn't six anymore and that's when all my troubles started. I can rewind and lay on my stomach on the floor & kick my legs backwards & forwards & be in that zone I was as a kid. I feel so lucky ! Your delivery is fantastic & again, thank you for what you do ❤💯. Watching from Italy where I've been for the last 4 years sitting very very still letting it all wash over me , healing & reeling to paint because I have to ! Best flow state to be in after all the parlava thus far 😂 🎉

    so much needless complexity to the painting process only for the purpose of making them seem more valuable, while adding nothing to the piece. it's a con like so many others. have you noticed how much of the abstract/concept art looks the same? i'm all for taking money from rich idiots who buy these but let's be real, that's all this is for. zombie formalism crashed because it was too clear about what it's doing.

    As much as I want to say something regarding how his work feels, it doesn't matter. Money has and always will be a driving force behind what artists can achieve and how successful they are. They have always been entwined in business, and Koons is wildly successful because he is business minded. Art is, for those who are very wealthy, not about the feeling as much as it is about the cost and ability to display that cost in such an opulent way. He wins, and those who have a hand in their own work may sneer at that.

    When DuChamp invented Modern Art, he said that he abandoned the Artists hand for the MIND. At this point the idea became the Art. Since then, relevant Artists have come up with the idea and whether they or someone else produces it doesn't matter. DuChamp, a New York transplant from Europe, invented the concept of the "ready made", a found object that he would recontextualize, creating an Art piece. His "Fountain" sculpture is a found urinal placed s a museum exhibit, recontextualized. Nothing has been the same ever since. Jeff Koons is a stated DuChampian.

    AGI Neural Weapons(Havana Syndrome /Freyeffect) will enable any billionaire's child to become the artist. (much as many of this class of offspring have had their egos massaged treading boards or the runway as models) Their mind connected to the ideas producing poor artist slave will enable them to be the world class artist with a production team.

    These artists who have the freedom of privacy of thought,privacy of imagination and privacy of creative process may soon be part of an endangered species. AGI Neural Control Weapons will not just be used on the battlefield but will be used to control and enslave creatives. Erin Valenti called this 'tool' a 'thought experiment' but it is no experiment.

    Wait... Is this an example of how AI art works like now? But instead of AI, he used people working like machines to bring out his ideas? The so called the idea matters and not the method. Even the artist didn't paint almost nothing and left all the work to his minions... So does the same criticism about the method and yada yada applies here? Is it lazy? Is it fake? Is the idea what counts only? Should it lose value, because it was done by other people? What's the difference from this to an AI creator imputing prompts? Should the final piece have everyone who worked on the project have their signatures as well in it? Interested to see what people think about this.

    The competitive nature of this way of working of course means that AGI Neural Control technology will become part of the PROCESS. AGI Neural Control Weapons will enable those artists with the greatest means at their disposal to be at one with targeted artists who are the enslaved -trapped in a one way HIVE MIND with intellectual property thieves.
