    • @readthetype
      @readthetype Місяць тому

      At this point, there’s only 2 groups of people in the entire universe: “Not-White,” and “Not Not-White.” Contrary to popular belief, for those in the “Not-White” category, their own identity is actually irrelevant. What *IS* of critical importance, however, is that you know they’re “Not-White.” As in _“I’m anything but White. Please God, please don’t make me be White…” (akin to Canadians defining themselves as “not American”). So there’s the “Not White” group, and everyone else. Forever condemned to live out the rest of their miserable, bigoted lives with all the other “Not Not-Whites.”

      There are plenty of realistic contemporary painters who are both extraordinary artists and financially successful, but realism has not been at the epicenter of the art market for several decades. Styles, preferences and artistic mandates have always been dynamic. There's no disrespect for realism, rather a desire to search and create other tangents of visual art.

    Art is subjective and one can like or dislike. My take on these famous artists is that none of their artwork - at least the ones shown in this video - convey an emotion or beauty. It's all about repetition of a message or of the same patterns. No emotions, nada, flat. However, if' you've been friend with Basquiat, you score many points!

    The Alex Katz portrait of a lady in the rain with an umbrella shown briefly at the 17:13 mark was displayed in a hallway by the former Margaret Lipworth Gallery in Gallery Center of Boca Raton back in the 90s for a few years. I worked in another contemporary gallery in the same center and passed this large work at least 50 times a day, to the point where It would frequently appear in my dreams. For a while, we had designated wall space directly beside the work. This presented a challenge since the Katz work was massive, easily dwarfing even paintings over 12 feet long.

    Excuse me, but Kazimir Malevich is not a russian artist, he was Ukrainian 6:28 He was born in Kyiv, wrote letters to his family in Ukrainian, and identified as Ukrainian. He was arrested and interrogated by the Russians, because of his ucranian motifs in artworks, then they forbade him from creating art. And yet, later, as he became well-known, they started calling him a “russian artist,” which is another example of russia stealing Ukrainian culture. I understand it’s easy to get mistaken when russia spreads so much misinformation, even editing Wikipedia. But I wanted to highlight this since it’s important to me as a Ukrainian artist. Thanks for understanding.

    Once the art industry concentrates on the work and not the color of the artist, it would be appreciated more. Your title is American Painters! Yet you say African American for black artist and American for white artist. They all are American artist, we can see what color they are. I know it maybe a small issue, but its also a large issue within the big picture. The gate keepers already control whom they want to elevate such as Kehinde. A small crack can bring down a whole wall!

Good surface information on a handful of artists; but seriously lacking any reasoning to back up many of these people as being ‘top’ painters.
