The Intimate Language of Cy Twombly's Artistic Mind: Episode 7
Have you ever stood before a work of art, lost in its abstract forms, and felt a story unfolding within you? This episode takes you on a journey into the world of Cy Twombly, where art speaks in hushed tones of history, mythology, and a quest for essence. As we navigate through the intimate chambers of Twombly's mind, we begin to unravel the tapestry of ideas and emotions that his work provokes, from the echoes of his American roots to the whispers of ancient Rome that permeated his life after 1957.
Join us as we share candid moments of personal discovery, where my appreciation for the textured and the imperfect collides with Twombly's layered canvases. The discussion traverses the artist's reluctance to offer context, leaving us to wander in the lush mystery of his expression, and challenges us to embrace the silent stories his pieces tell. With each brushstroke and scribble, Twombly invites us into a dialogue, a conversation that thrives in the spaces he claims through his art, leaving a resonance that lingers long after the gallery lights dim.
As we wrap up, we reflect on the profound connections we forge with art, be it through cherished heirlooms or the fleeting moments we share with it in a museum. Discovering art becomes akin to a treasure hunt, where the thrill lies in both the anticipation and the unexpected joys. Whether you're whispering to a Twombly or nodding silently to a Joan Mitchell, this episode is an ode to the conversations we hold with art, the questions we ask, and the answers we find within ourselves. So come along, bring your voice to our exchange, and let's explore the narrative that awaits in the next gallery.

Thank you. I Iove your pod cast. Feel like I'm at the Cedar Bar!
Oh man! Made my night! Thank you!!
I was late to discover (2011) the magic essence that is Cy Twombly. His approach and appreciation of marks and the history of them was so absolutely paralelled with how i practiced back in the early 90s. I havent painted for close to 10yrs and after watching your podcast am seriously considering getting rid of the furniture to replacing them with all the easles which are simply holding prior expressions (as i have few walls in my small warehouse). I really love your discussions, thank you and keep it up. 👍
Do it! There is never a better time than now to start again, even if it is in little bits of time. Start in small chunks of time and build up! GO GO GO!
Personally I love Cy Twombly but its always entertaining to listen to the haters, and there are so many, rant on and on about his work being illegitimate ,they are so passionate about denouncing his genius with such conviction ❤
Haters in art al always entertaining. The beauty of art is there is something for everyone. I choose not to hate, to find out why I dislike something by studying the artist I dislike and figuring out if there are really specific reasons why I dislike the work and I may learn something new, even if I still dislike it in the end:)
Nice into to you guys. Enjoyed it.
I don't know what my fingers were thinking but meant to say: "Nice to listen to you guys."
haha! thank you so much for listening!!- Ty
Cy Dear was put on Vimeo 4 years ago. That’s where I watch it
thanks!
Cy is one the greatest artists too , İ don t know why so much haters he has? Other great artists like Pollock, De Kooning etc dont have such haters as he
It certainly is interesting.
For me, Twombly is neither a master nor a chump, just someone whose work has always interested me. What is poetry? A contradictory form of elegance; earnest, yet playful, very considered, yet very light. Elevating Twombly actually diminishes the work, and vice versa. That's not its spirit.
