Love the energy that Trudy creates in the detailed backgrounds. Great foundation for the other rhythms and overlay. Terry has reintroduced me to form in a very clever manner. This is no splash and go stuff. Very thoughtful and detailed.
Trudy is getting too close Jonathan Lasker's thing...Terry Winters is a painter's painter, a symphony conductor with a brush, I never get tired of him...The guns and ammo works were actually quite beautiful.
Trudy is someone I've been following for a while on IG, so was a little too thrilled to find her opening one of your gallery prowls. Kind of like when a musician friend has a concert and you see a few dozen others cheering them on as well... funny how social media can give a false sense of community. And, yeah, thanks to your story, I am aware she's in the limelight (having a show straight out of Pratt, as you said) . I just kept thinking - does she airbrush those wavy concentric squares from the center out, or vice versa? Maurizio takin' the piss, as he does with aplomb! And a big fat Terry show is like a feast of soul food for me. His Whitney show in 1990 was one of just a tiny few blockbuster shows that formed my personal temple of painter greats. I always wonder if the celebrity came just a tiny bit too fully and too soon for him? But, he's been steady for 3 decades at least, and these works are well made. Thank you so much James, and Kate!
What happened to Winters? His early, biomorphic work is almost infinitely superior to what he does now in every way a painting can be superior to another.
Trudy Benson can learn a lot from Terry Winters’ layering and various sizes of lines and shapes to create depth. 🙏🏼😊 (I can’t seem to edit or delete my previous postings…”shadow-banned” into UA-cam “mirror-server” gulag…?)
Point cloud- a set of data points in space that represent a 3D shape or object. It’s kinda specific, not really AI or computer imagery fooling around stuff. And it’s painted by hand. Kinda way more interesting than most art.
Trudy’s old show is better than this geometric tiles (Mondrian, Reinhardt, etc.) with a touch of “paint squirted out of a tube” (Andre Butzer). She forgot to play with various thickness of lines hence the monotonous aspect of the paintings. 🙏🏼😊
What happened to Winters? His early, biomorphic work is almost infinitely superior to what he does now in every way a painting can be superior to another, despite some of the colour combos here being unexpected and quite pleasing to the eye. Benson's paintings looks a bit like a more surface-detail heavy version of J Lasker's work, visually a bit inert but occasionally with a certain jazzy pizzazz - and, like Lasker's, self-contained paintings about nothing except the commitment to see them through - and I don't mean that as a put-down. Cattelan, capitalism's court jester, does corporate foyer work with an edge so blunt it bludgeon's the viewer into mindless assent. I still love seeing these vids, even if I only like the odd show that comes up. Even art that doesn't move us can be instructive. Keep 'en coming!
Thanks for your comments @selwynr. I've given lectures to art students, and there's always one thing I like to stress; to be an artist you've got to look at a lot of art, much of it "bad". That's a good thing, because it give one some kind of base line to work against. Also, over time things you didn't like, may start to grow on you, so ether way it's a net gain...JK
@@jameskalmroughcut Thanks for replying, @jameskalmroughcut and I agree, art that you don't like or that is 'bad' can sometimes be more fertile than the great masters, and I've also said same to art students. Sometimes there's an 'in' that can you can work with, some bizarre colour combo or unschooled painterly approach that is whack and lit. And yes, some of my favourite painters I didn't like initially. Sometimes the ones that don't bowl you over end up being the keepers. Have to say, as well, you have the benefit of seeing the work in the flesh, and there's no substitute for that, though channels such as yours go some way in addressing the old tyranny of distance (I'm Downunder). Thanks again!
Great ! Thank you Kate.
appreciate your efforts, james and kate

Thanks for showing these 3 exhibitions. Do you ever cover the Walter Wickiser Gallery ?
Annette has some pipes! The Winters show very interesting

More of the same old same, nothing even changes in the galleries. How about finding something we haven't seen a million times. GEEEZE
Always nice to hear from you Junior COLTRANE...
@@jameskalmroughcut Thanks Loren ...hope everything is well.
Trudy is an excellent colorist
Trudys previous work were dynamic and open - in these I cant see her intension.
