- ”A painting must always move beyond its subject,” says British painter Michael Simpson, who sees the practice of painting as ”giving form to an idea.” Hear how he, David Hockney and 6 other painters work with the classical art form.
”I don’t think that the painter thinks about art when they’re making serious painting,” says Michael Simpson. ”What they’re doing is trying to solve a problem.” Those problems can be very different: American painter Kerry James Marshall’s paintings tackle the dominance of white bodies in art history. His paintings of black people aim to diversify the images we see in the museum: ”If I go to the museum and see white bodies, black bodies, Asian bodies, Latino bodies, then I will expect to see those things every time I go. That matters a lot,” says Marshall.
Moving from figurative to abstract painting, British painter Cecily Brown thinks about the qualities of paint itself: ”When the body disappears it’s almost like there’s no ’there’ there,” she explains. ”It just becomes paint showing off, doing tricks, playing games.” American painter Mark Bradford has moved away from paint itself and uses materials such as liquefied paper in his work, material that “has something to do with the social fabric of the times we live in, and not just to do with the history of art.”
Essentially, the strength of painting is its versatility, what Danish painter Tal R calls ”the magic” of the painting. One can always come back and re-experience a painting, says British painter Ian McKeever: ”All paintings, irrespective of when they were painted, still have this possibility for us to come to them anew, to actually see it for the first time.”
Also featured in this video is British artist David Hockney and Swedish artist Anna Bjerger.

This is amazing because with each artist, I was stunned by each of their works. I love it. I left this video with so much inspiration and confidence.
Brilliant film, wonderful to hear these real painters talking.
That painting of the skiers is LOVELY.
yeah does it come up in this video? I only saw it in the thumbnail
I think it's very interesting to listen to these artists explaining the different ways they do use to paint. Many thanks for sharing.
David Hockney gets it. He really gets it. I could listen to him speak for hours. One of the greatest, if not the greatest, living artist, imo.

"If I painting something to precisely, I have to break it down" such a good quote. Take a picture if you want it to be perfect
Some of the most sound art advice I've heard in a long time. ❤️
That element of surprise is my satisfaction, doesn't matter if it's good or bad. You only do for yourself
love this
Exactly
Pp
I adore abstract expression
Yeah, it's how it feels, not some theoretical interpretation, just feeling for me
To be an artist is to create a physical depiction of the paradox of life.
Thanks for giving us a chance to discover artists whose works are interesting and worthwhile.
The art that these people are doing is the visual representation of all the thoughts, ideas and "noise" that is in their minds.
Noise.. I say communicating an idea visually through the art of painting. Whether you see their work as valid or noise is your opinion and not the reason creatives create, make art. Take some time to listen to your thoughts, ideas, who knows what creativity, art might result.
@@wilava7003 No. I call it "noise". Plus, I never got in the habit of changing my personal thoughts or assessments just because...people...like you don't agree. Sorry, buy that's just how it is.
@@John.Smith007 "I never got in the habit of changing my personal thoughts or assessments just because...people...like you don't agree. "
Definition of a bigot.
@@AnIrishRover Aren't you going to call me a racist and a fascist too?! LMFAO!! Let me guess, you support BLM and you have "white guilt"?
So glad there are lots of other artists out there to choose from.
Anna Bjerger was born in Sweden in 1973. She lives and works in Småland, Sweden. She studied Fine Art (BA) at the Central St. Martins School of Art.

Cecily Brown was born in 1969 in the United Kingdom. She lives and works in New York City.
Ian McKeever was born 30 November 1946. He lives and works in Hartgrove, Dorset, England.
Tal R is an artist based in Copenhagen. He was born in 1967.

Michael Simpson was born in 1940 and is a British painter.
David Hockney was born 9 July 1937. He has has owned a home and studio in Bridlington and London, and two residences in California.
Thanks for posting!
It's a divine feeling to create art
Absolutely!
Yes
To me Ian McKeever's work evokes textile and landscape - the red painting has me thinking of Africa; and the Congo specifically. Textiles and community are interwoven by stories; so there seems to me that there is so much more beyond the surface; whatever that may be.. I had the good fortune to have been taught by Michael Simpson, ''More sensitive 'aol77777' ! More sensitive !' I have never forgotten his small, colourful fantasy painting exhibited in Bath; beautifully executed on flat wood and broad, stained frames. Also to quote Michael Simpson, 'A painting is never finished.' To which Cecily Brown would completely concur : 'inevitably when you push it you loose it.' In other words, like a good party it is important to know when to leave; otherwise everything goes down hill very quickly !
Brown is by far my favorite artist in this collection.
Agreed
yes. she created her own language, truly. and something else
I have read that she wanted to be an artist when she was just 3 years old. Strange. Wish i had that chance.
...and that body.
yes i always told myself that painting must be something that i can enjoy and not kind of mission to complete
Mr. Michael Simpson made the most impressive remarks!
I was really blown away by Michael Simpson's approach to painting. He should write a book.
Oh... and Cecily Brown... love her work and her approach.
Watch the Simpson video in full edition here: ua-cam.com/video/Lj3o2KYkNE0/v-deo.html
jesus christ that was scary, are you serious?
@@cdabcdefg12345 Sure. He doesn't drive himself crazy with the idea of creating art. He sees creating a piece of art as a series of decisions designed to solve a series of problems. He has a pretty healthy attitude putting aside his obsession with ladders.
@@DK-jg5vk Healthy is the last word I would use, it sounds like art is purely logical for him, and that is a deathly attitude in my opinion
Speaking as an artist, I think the artist who merits celebrating here is the videographer (Roxanne Bageshirin Lærkesen?), because in looking at the marquis image for the video which can more clearly be seen between 9:22 and 9:26, she captures a gorgeous slice of happenstance - chance - of spatially suggestive abstraction occurring between the bottom of the painting and the paint drips on the studio floor. In this I saw a late summer storm cloud "arena" illuminated by gloaming light, almost night blue sky behind it and a field of wildflowers emerging from middle ground dark cloud shadow. Very successful image. Was that accidental or intentional during the artists dialog about chance?
it s an imtepretation and that s what you want to see, you build it with your own taste, but the videographer try to get the feeling of drip, to flow, the humidity and the floor, the casual and the freedom and that is certainly a summer storm interpretation don t u think? I think so. cheers
Hockney stands out. The others I’m not sure what they’re talking about although the work looks amazing.
You can feel the time in his paintings!
I was just thinking that
9:20 about sums up the experience of making "art" incredibly well (I'm still fuming over a piece I screwed up just yesterday, so/// )
The evidence of quality of the above artists, is to be often found a step further into the surface of the work itself.
New sub! Liked 🙏✌️🌞
9:25 i relate to the artist
I see it now...people paint because they cannot communicate in any other way.
Just because it's a big painting doesn't mean it's even close to being good. Who came up with that idea anyway ?
This is somewhat true. But if you see a lot of these close up, they are beautiful.
cecily brown is so smart
I cried.
Abstract art has a long history in Denmark. It’s good to see what is going on there currently. Nice variety of approaches.
Warhol was just joking. Trolling if you like. These people didnt get the joke.
what do you mean?
Excellent.
extraordinary!
The artists were asked to express themselves through speech, so why are so many sniping at them?
As artists their main mode of expression is through painting pictures.
It is funny how so much dibble is written about art by others, rather than the artist simply explain their own picture.
If you like the picture, then look. If you want to know more, listen, otherwise move on.
As the meerkat says:- ‘It’s simples.’😀
Those with real talent just get on with it in their pursuit of excellence; those with seemingly little to no talent, impostors, use words (endlessly), to obfuscate the fact! The social dominance of those with more ego than talent...the art world's Dunning-Kruger effect! A world gone mad!
Who cares? There's no freedom in the structures of society at all! The only place of freedom for contemporary humanity is through art. A wilful creative act does is irrefutably valid no matter what it looks like. Do you get that?
@@kingsleysaxon9710 Freedom by that definition is anarchy. True freedom in art is an act of self discipline through the craft, to limit it just to only willful creativity is to limit art and the artist as a whole.
Why does everyone's opinion of art have to be the same.Take your opinion, close your mind,hold firmly to that opinion and leave the rest of us to explore
@@cinderblockstudioscraftsmanship is craftsmanship,not art ,art is art..
I love it when "abstract" artists irritate ignoramuses . Folks! Art is the only bastion of true freedom. If you don't like it that's fine, it's really only the footprint of an individuals act of free will. Instead of scoffing you should try it.
Kingsley Saxon there's no such thing are very bright.
Very interesting
If you have to explain your art, it ain't art. I don't think I have ever said anything about my paintings. They speak for themselves and I let the viewer figure it out.
I could speak about my paintings ,because there are many stories in one day ,most paintings have little to no content .
Subtítulos en español, por favor.
Who is the artists with the ladders?
César Córdova Michael Simpson
Wow I would hate that my race was such a big pressure on my art and life perspective
I would too, but I also find it easier to relate to works that make reference to Slavic culture or America than I do to works related to Korea, you know what I mean? I think it's more of a relatability issue.
This isn't to say it's ONLY that, I'm sure theres some political progressivism involved, which I am opposed to ideologically, but I wouldn't let any of that get in the way of me enjoying the work.
What about Basquiat?
How amateur and weak.
dope at work ..
6:52 Does anyone here have any clue what the music is that swells up from the background at this point? I know it's a long shot, but you gotta ask, right?
Oh Super cool video 😬✨
where's the rest of them?
sooooooo YAWNNNNN
Drinking game for any video about art; chug a beer every time someone says _pretentious,_ and take a shot every time you see someone mention _talent, how no good art exists,_ or _whenever someone mentions one of the old'n'dead masters._ I especially encourage you to take this challenge if you make these comments. That way, when you get a hangover next morning, *you'll know how it feels for us to read your nonsense.*
solving problems，fromheart， somehow，for me，ye s
Artists can say anything, literally any rubbish, here is some things said in this: "I hate the word 'art'" - "there is no there, there" "paint that is jumping through hoops....."
what is the name of the artist at 0:40 ?
ResQ DHS Mark Bradford
to be an artist is to be
Some of these people sound like they're not rowing with both oars in the water...
eveything could be expresive
even spelling
supatimefunshow underrated comment.
@Lousiana Channel what is the beginning song?
What’s the name of the thumbnail painting?
Great video, but if there had to be only one comment by Hockney, it should have been the closing one.
Pretentiousness is an art.
And sadly it seems to be the case that if an artist doesn't talk in a pretentious way then that artist isn't taken seriously !
Galleries (who want to make money from your efforts) almost always demand that you explain your artwork.
Subject realy metter,in way it is exspression of you and others.Without oters wouldnt be subject any more.
00:54 Figurative doesn't mean literally painting the figure, Cecily Brown.
Thanks for the race comment Kerry. jerkypoo
And why is that not relevant ? What he says is true. And very valid
Cecily Brown's art for me is s/th one could kill me with. Ugly chaos, real horror. I think I must cure myself now looking at an Agnes Martin painting ;) (Deep breath) Or maybe Ian McKeever will do the same for me.
If somebody described a piece of art to me as "ugly chaos, real horror" I'd want to see it. Somebody who hated my work once described it as "utter madness". I felt very honored.
@@13tuyuti I can understand this. But life is already full of chaos, so I need art for connecting me with stillness, beauty, simplicity. Maybe it's because I am old.
@@LaWendeltreppe For me it's the other way around. I like stillness, simplicity and beauty as much as anybody els but I don't need art for that. To me art is there to deal with the things in life that I don't understand.
@@13tuyuti Interesting. I can rely to that. Are you still young? When I was young I was intrigued by Francis Bacon or Lucian Freud and Frida Kahlo of course. I would never have liked Agnes Martin during this time. And I would never have used only earth colours in my own art. Now my fav colour is Payne's grey and burnt siena. ;))
@@LaWendeltreppe I'm 42. I guess that counts as not young and not old. I can enjoy very tranquil paintings but even in them I look for that little grain of disquiet. One interesting thing I noticed about the relation between ones tastes and the stage in life one is in, is that having a child in my late 30s prompted a kind of second puberty in me. I started to listen to noisier music and the subject matter of my paintings became more violent. At first I thought that I was just enjoying the last vestiges of puberty before I had to become a responsible adult during my girlfriend's pregnancy but after my daughter was born I realized that being an adult isn't really about that so I could go on with the noisy music and the bloodsoaked paintings. With my daughter almost 4 it's starting to abate, a little...
ok
Best at the Pompidou Paris all the other exhibits were just too way out for me
i love these people
Talk, talk, talk, make it 8 artists working
So many of these comments betray such an ignorance of what art is about and what an artist is. But what else would I expect from the general public?
Lance Rutledge elitist sentiment but unfortunately I agree
Great comment Lance. I feel the same sentiments about the general public who choose not to be artists but will only criticize the artists. They have no idea of the process because they so sorrowfully choose not to be artists. Imagine how many come here to the internet to watch these great videos but never get inspired to attempt the artistic process. Art gives us the reason to live a meaningful life, where others might just sit for hours or their entire life of watching television, something I gave up forever at about age 14.
The general public? Who do you think you are?
what the fuck are you talking about? they're all describing the processes and thinking they use in creating their own individual styles. what were you hoping for - something religious? try to get some rest and leave art to actual artists. you're obviously not one. at best you're a pompous ass.
@@ZimMan26 It's not an elitist statement. The same comment can be made from within all groups towards those outside of it. It's more of an insider sentiment, really. A lot of artists understand that people beyond the art sphere seldom ever just get it. Nothing wrong with that.
Good all works
Vasaloppet, the black body and ladders to nowhere. A bröad spread of subjects.
Who’s the artist at 2:00 mins?
Tal r
I’m sorry, I’ve done 6 years of purely Art based education, and I don’t get it. I still don’t understand what makes a painting “good” and another “bad” other than skill and aesthetic appeal. Blobs on a canvas mean nothing to me.
Tom Oliver Don’t worry about it.Carry on.
In art school many years ago, I told my painting professor, that I wanted to paint abstract, but I tend to always try to see recognizable imagery in the work, and I just truly did not understand abstract. He said that he had been there himself at one time, but to just keep working and it would all come together clearly some day. He was right.
Who are these people? I need to see their work!
Google made me do it one of them is David Hockney..
Cecily Brown is the one with the hot body.
its right fucking behind them!
Never trust a painter
2:35 go to museum in Nigeria and youll se a lot of black bodies there and no white bodies i gues. depends on the museum bro
Neanderthal painting. Oooo, paint out of a tube. Exactly like the same type of techniques as was used in the cave paintings of the Neanderthals. A thousand years from now painting from now and back will be in the same discussion as cave paintings (minus paint out of a tube). Not that it is bad but no matter how much dialog and metaphysical discussion there is it cannot change that.
Good news is I may have changed all that with my new and innovative technique of oil painting.
Painting with oil or oil painting art can move forward. Art can now limit much of the meandering sales pitch dialog that is so desperately keeping Neanderthal techniques prevalent and go back to being a form of magical and beauty for generations to come.
The vanity is painful
Artmajer Ala Panfiliuk
Like a bad joke...you got to explain why it’s funny.
More like a different language and we're trying to explain how it works. Try your hand at Polish, or Japanese. Art is the same way. We don't say Ukrainian is a bad language because we need a text book to explain it to us. We just say we don't understand. I understood some of these artists just fine looking at their works.
Okay, but not even one of these painters paint in a more realistic or subject based form. What about all of us that want to go in knowing we're painting a girl in a lake or working with looks and colors not clumps of paint or paper?
Liberty Walters you should pursue what you want to do.
Paint as you please. There is a plot to destroy beauty of course. I love all types of art regardless of agendas. Enjoy yourself.
super 111
to try to be smart for someone who does not understand, and to be promoted by someone who has no idea what he says is comic. I do not understand where the desire to promote worthless things. we can take a stain on the wall and find it smart to turn it into the artwork
"Do not despise my opinion, when I remind you that it should not hard for you to stop sometimes and look into the stains of walls, or the ashes of a fire, or clouds, or mud or like places, in which, if you consider them well, you may find really marvelous ideas. The mind of the painter is stimulated to new discoveries, the composition of battles of animals and men, various compositions of landscapes and monstrous things, such as devils and similar things, which may bring you honor, because by indistinct things the mind is stimulated to new inventions.”
Leonardo da Vinci
As a painter I agree with mostly none of this. Would have been nice to see painters that aren't full of themselves.
It's not a matter of agreeing or disagreeing. Different artists have different perspectives. You should also understand that they are talking about themselves because they were asked to, not because they are "full of themselves".
lol No wonder your art is dog shit. You're trying to compare your little ass with them. Just go make a video of how to paint trees and treat yourself. 😂
Look how glorified are artists that died. I'll destroy all my art before dying. They only love you dead.
what about
what would you be learning to draw? how can you do philosophies when you do not know how to write?
art does not mean lush color on any surface and painting sensation means TALENT. who does not have to do anything else
bors emil You wish for a world like 500 years ago when every painter followed the same rules and produced the same shit
"How can you do philosophies when you do not know how to write?"
Think, open your mouth, and speak. Listen, open your mouth, and speak.
@Andrew Pingwin Or maybe you're shit... That is not the point being made here. There's artists nowadays who are just as skilful as "the masters" but guess what? Photography exists and art moved on from a basic form of recording moments in time. You need to move on with the rest.
Llegaron dos ninos y vieron Esto y dijo uno VAMONOS !''! Pues nos van a decir. Que nosotros lo hicimos ! Sheckote
I like how the following comments spell L A W
People who say this is pretentious are the same one's who say people who lift weights and show their bodies are narcissistic. Only artists will understand other artists. You can observe, or judge, but not understand. You're not in the club unless you pay your dues.
I think it's more of a language barrier, than anything else.
this is the "everyone's a winner" art
There's a difference between depth and being pretentious.
'Pretentious' is often used in a lazy way, and tends to reflect distaste rather than understanding.
Why mention it at all? Unless you want to make a point. Even if to yourself.
@@EulogyfortheAngels pretentious

Eff off you peasant.

There is a word used in Indian subcontinent that describes all this...chutiyaap
People who shit in the street are worthless.
@@heraldeventsandfilms5970 that is all you know about India. It is not your fault though because you say what is fed to you by the media. I don't support the negative comments on 'Modern' art or 'Contemporary' art but if you accept the freedom of human mind and expressing it through the art medium then you can as well accept other cultures and their thoughts. I don't support the unhygienic practices but which country doesn't have that? Do your research and you will find the beauty of India yourself.
@@utp9745 Of course there are many good things about India but overall, it is an appalling place for most people there.
To K.J. Marshall. There are long histories of art in Africa, Asia and the other Americas. Maybe he's just not going to all the museums. The Louvre blew me away with its collection of ancient Egyptian art.
What has art become its being done by people who cant even draw
The lady with dirty hair paints a lot like De Kooning
Cecily Brown? iIs the lady
