Mark Haddon on Jean Dubuffet | TateShots

Author and artist Mark Haddon, best known for his novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, came to Tate Modern to look at one of his favourite paintings: The Busy Life 1953 by Jean Dubuffet.
This work belongs to a series that Dubuffet called beaten pastes because the main paint layer resembled butter, into which he scratched the graffiti-like figures. In this film, Haddon shares his love for Dubuffets technique: a celebration of mark-making and texture.

Not my favorite AbEx artist and not my personal favorite piece by him, but I did enjoy listening to this artist explain why this piece of Dubuffet's is so significant for him.
