The greatest painter of the 21st Cèntury is Cecily Brown.❤
Very interesting and informative. Thank you for uploading. Regards from the Superblur Art Movement.
Very inspiring interview. Loved the honesty in Cecily's responses to the questions. I've only recently engaged with Cecily Brown's work and she's a tour de force. Bravo for painting!!
Find her work confused and over worked , like richter there’s no contrast ,pollocks paintings have big movements and the colours work and Chaim soutine paintings are lush and alive .
Richter is possibly the worst example of a recognized 20th century artist. The sheer volume of pointless and dreary artwork produced by him is staggering. It's impossible to fathom how one man could churn out so much detestable "art". It's truly hideous.
I concur the only comment I can come up with , no matter how I say it " would be considered harsh" and the attacks would come.
Perhaps you could provide a context for your comment by stating who you think is the best example of a recognized 20th century artist.
A cantankerous comment. unsubstantiated and ultimately futile.
Pointless and dreary... okay. Could you post a link to your art so we can give you a critique?
I'd agree he's quite overrated, but this is a bit extreme. At worst his work of the last 30 some years is just very repetitive.
One of my favorite looking exercises is to draw a Cecily Brown painting...if you aren't sure what you are looking at in her paintings...what you draw may surprise you!
What a fun idea!
I take a photo of my work and turn the saturation all the way down to a B&W ✊🏽🙌🏽🫀
Could listen to her all day. She is one of the best painters living today.
Garbage conversation
I was surprised that his Mother and Child painting was of his wife and child. It is a negation. It's not of life. For me, love doesn't exist here even without the crossing out and negating of the "emotive/non-emotive" strokes. All mind, yet doesn't push the intellect. Perhaps a sign of a statement. It's a finish but not complete. A separation from it's subject matters past. Cecily Brown oozes love and journey, pulling us into the space. She negates but to restart rebuild reassess. Gives us so much to want to return to. It is a visual birth and life and renewal.
I was so glad to hear that in 2022 her works are being sold @auction for the 10’ of millions of $$$ She’s finally getting the incredible credit she so deserves✊🏽🫶🏼🙌🏽🤘🏽👄🫀
Hmmm… pretty; you are. Oh! - Nice work.🧑🎨💋⭐️
Brown is an neo expressionist and Richter's a conceptual painter, comparing apples and oranges.
I just found out who Gerhard Richter was on the last Insider Insight from the met so this was a nice follow up to provide more depth into his work. I'm not sure I understand where he was going with all of it but quite a lot of it I really love and keep going back to look at. Thanks for sharing this!
Très instructif cet interview. Merci 🙏
Muy interesante. Agradecido.
